How long have you breastfed all your children for, in total?

[BoobiesToTheRescue]

I was just wondering how long I would end I would end up breast feeding for in total.

It was be at least 4-5 years.

I figured there would be people on here with a lot more breast feeding years under their belt and wondered how many years there were.

9 years (so far) without a bloody break. Four kids. I’m sick to the back teeth of it to be quite honest.

31 months so far (2 children) but am still going with dd

Altogether over 6.5 years - 2 years with DS1 and over 4.5 years with DS2.

I only intended to give it a try for the first couple of weeks to ensure they got the colostrum at least! Never anticipated it being as easy as it turned out to be (I know it isn't for many, many women) and for them to be such boob monsters

Two DCs, breastfed 3.5 years with a 3 month overlap of tandem feeding in the middle. I never thought I'd do it that long. I find I miss it when I am looking after DNephew and I can't use nursing to solve every problem from hunger to comfort to sleep!

Nearly 7 years plus 5 months exclusively pumping. 5 dc

About 5 years between two children.

Just over five years so far, with a six-month break. Can’t see any end on the horizon although I’m starting to feel a bit over it!

Nearly 6 years, one child (admittedly it was only for naps/sleep from 1 year old)

I started breastfeeding in May 2008, and finished in February 2017 - so nine years is in total, and three children. My youngest finished feeding on her fifth birthday.

3 years, 3 months- I have a 3 year old and a 5 month old- 5 month old is still feeding :)

2 children, just over 2 years so far but still going

Mine was so short because I hated it

2 children - 4.5 years

If I were to add the years for each individual child together, 16 years! But I tandem fed most of the time, so I actually spent 8 years breastfeeding.

4 years and 4 months. 2 DC

2 days, 1 dd

2 children, 6 years in total

4.5 years, 1 kid

6 years so far I think, have just had DC4 so will probably be 8 or 9 in total. Not tandem fed but have fed toddlers while pregnant.

15 weeks, if that, with formula from day 1 for both (not my choice). 2 DC

2 years 8 months times 2.

2 DSs and 0 days breastfeeding.

2 dc, just over 4 years of breastfeeding

3 years with dd 6 weeks with Ds. Had to stop as I had to go on antibiotics.

Just over two years and still going!
One child.
