so i have some time before DD is 1 (she's 9 months now), but i've been thinking about how BFing is going to work after 1. we've always gone by the EASY method and that suits us well. she is on 2 naps a day, feeds morning, after each nap (maybe 1 time before the 2nd nap if she seems like it will extend nap 2), before bedtime and once overnight. so about 5-6 times in 24 hours.

i imagine she'll be on 2 naps for a while and hopefully will drop the MOTN feed soon, so by 12 months, we'll be BFing 4x a day. i'm open to BFing as long as she wants up to 18m-2 years, so i don't want to actively wean, but i'm wondering what it looks like when LO doesn't "need" milk and will be progressively eating more solids. currently she can't really signal that she wants milk (sometimes grabbing at my shirt if she's tired) but maybe she can at 12 months and that's what i go by?

can anyone offer insight on BFing past 12 months when you were on the EASY routine (or not, but i just wanted to give or background that we're not feeding all times of the day!)
