DD was 3 years
DS1 self weaned super early (IMO) at 18 months I wanted 2 years but he was just too busy to hang out and nurse vs. sippy cups that are portable.
and DS2 will be 3 this month and is still nursing

Breastfed DS for 19 months (I weaned him because I was pregnant and no longer enjoying it). Hoping at least a year with DD (3 1/2 weeks now) but nursing has been a lot more challenging with her.

I weaned DD1 at just past 13 months and DD2 was weaned at 13.5 months. My goal for both was 12 months so I was pretty happy with when we stopped.

DS1 self-weaned at 19 months.
DS2 is only 6 weeks, so he's still nursing. I'm not sure I'm interested in going that long again...maybe wanting to wean closer to 15 months. But we'll see how it goes.

I weaned DD1 @ 20 months because I was pregnant and she wasn't really getting much. DD2 is still going strong at 9 months today.

I weaned DS1 right around 2 years. I thought he would self-wean earlier but he kept that last session a lot longer than I expected. DS2 is almost 15 months and still nursing. Once he can have cow's milk (MSPI), I will start cutting back nursing sessions and hope he self-weans by 2.

I weaned my daughter at 2 because it was becoming too much to feed both and she ate more than the baby. The baby is 3 months.

DS 1 weaned at 8 months. I'm hoping to go as long. I'm also totally fine with some formula too. I think when I go back to work, I plan to give the daycare daily breast milk. If it's not enough one day, a spot of formula to supplement will help.

DD I nursed until she was a year
DS#1 I nursed until he was 3 months old (he had weight gain issues and I had supply issues)
DS#2 I nursed until he was 15 months old

I weaned DD at 28 months bc tandem nursing was becoming too much for me.
DS self weaned at 10.5 months! It was totally unexpected and made me really sad!
