When I was pregnant I just wanted to make it to 6 months. BF has gone really well for us, despite some supply issues with pumping and going back to work, and she's still EBF (plus solids). I hope to make it to a year, then let her self wean. She's a big comfort nurser though, so who knows when she will want to stop. I may need sleep before then!

My goal is a year but we'll see! I'll be back to work after 12 weeks and who knows how pumping with work out... There's definitely a conference room available for me to use but I go to clients' offices pretty frequently and I don't know what arrangements I'll be able to make there. It may wind up being pumping in the bathroom and then dumping it I'm hoping to build up a solid freezer stash during maternity leave but we'll see how that goes!

My initial goal was a year, but recently it's really started to wear on me (I think a business trip of pumping round the clock wore me down). So I'm setting a shorter term goal of making it to nine months and then we'll see how it's going. At that point I may drop a pumping session and rely on my freezer stash if I'm coming up short with her daily needs.
