My first goal had been 6 months, since I didn't make it that far with Kaden. Then the goal was a year, and now we're past that. Since I am a pumper at work, we'll see how much longer this goes on. She is quite the nurser though, so I bet we make it to 18 months or so.

With my first son I didn't know what I was doing and didn't have any goals in mind at all. With my 2nd son I knew I wanted to nurse until he self weaned, but I knew it would be hard. We started with small goals. The first one was 6 weeks, then 3 months. Then after that I knew we would make it for as long as he wanted. We made it until he was 3 yrs 1 month. With Alex I wanted the same thing (self weaning). He ended up weaning during my pregnancy at 2 years 9 months. I have the same self weaning goal with Maddox. I do hope it is at least 3 years.

2 or 3 years plus.

I started out wanting to make it to six weeks, because I heard if you made it that far you were good to go (as far as wanting to continue). I really wasn't too educated then, I mostly just wanted to do it b/c DH said I couldn't.

Still going strong at 5months, and not planning on starting solids until at least 8or so months... or weaning... ever...

My goal is to bf him as long as he wants (within reason lol).
Right now my goal is to get rid of formula and be able to just bf him.
