If you made it to your goal for BFing.

    My goal was a year, I finally broke down and weaned her at 21 months, I wanted to get done nursing and have that be a thing of the past for lo before the new baby gets here because I knew it would be an issue to tandem nurse.

    My original goal was 6 months, and I just weaned DS a couple weeks before 18 months! Definitely not what I had expected to do.

    Well, my original goal was to EBF for 6 months. We made it 5 days before supplementing so it that sense I did not reach my goal.

    However, my new goal was to breastfeed for 6 months even with supplementing. I am very proud to say that we met our goal! It was one of the hardest things I have ever done, but now nursing is pretty easy so I am not going to intentionally wean. However, I don't pump when I am away from LO, and since I am working part-time she is getting fewer nursing sessions. I think it is going to happen naturally over the next few months, which I have mixed feelings about.

    My goal was one year and she was weaned at 14- months. I would have tried to go a little longer, but my supply dropped after getting pregnant.

    My goal was 1 year and she self weaned a few days short of 12 mths.

    Clawed and scraped to reach my goal of pumping until she was one. We nursed awkwardly until 8 months and then moved to just pumping. By the time she turned one, I was producing less than an ounce a day, but I had a small freezer stash that we used up through her birthday. It was a close call but we did it.

    Goal was 1 year she weaned herself somewhere between 14-15 months. Things really slowed down when I went back to work at 1 year.
