I'm currently EBF dd2 at 4m & plan to bf until at least 12m. I bf dd1 until 13/14m. I planned to stop around the 1 yr mark (as cultural norm), but had to for medical reasons. I'm very pro the benefits of b/f and better informed this time so considering trying to feed to around 2yrs, provided dd2 wants to. I'd be v grateful if anyone can share their experience - good or bad. Main concerns are feeding older child in public (whilst I'm v happy with public feeding of a baby, I feel less comfortable about a toddler & associated hostility), how often a 1-2 yr old will feed (morn & night fine plus occasional extras e.g. sick, hurt etc) combining feeding with returning to work 3 days per wk. many thanks!
