Icon5 Nursing frequency?

I only bf Hannah for 3mths and now we are getting close to a year w/ Josie and I don't know if she is being overfed, underfed, she is weaning herself, or what. I thought I could find a chart online, but no luck yet. She eats 3 solid meals a day w/ snacks, has one sippy of juice, one of water, and nurses before morning nap (around noon,) snacks on me for a few sips here and there throught the day, then eats again before evening nap at 5-6pm (only for maybe 10mins max,) and then nurses at least 30mins each breast before bed around 10-11pm. She still gets up once at around 2am (sometimes to eat,) and always has to have a 6am feeding. Then she gets up around 8-9am and starts her day again w/ breakfast. Does this sound about right? I am not ready to quit and I guess it is just now coming to me that our nursing days may be getting numbered. Josie still depends on me before she sleeps and even during the night, but she really don't care for me if she isn't tired. Guess I am feeling a little rejected. LOL!

Oh yea, as far as I know she has a lactose sensitvity and gets really gassy and has mucousy bms if I eat ice cream, too much cheese, or have regular milk. I have been drinking lactose-free milk since she was born. I have no idea when to start offering that as well.

Thanks so much!!!!
