Ive just read another lady's thread about bf her 53 week old baby...mine too is 53 weeks, but it's a different question and I didn't want to sabotage!
So I've had 5 Dcs in total. Baby 1 was purely bf until 15 mts when I felt I had to go cold turkey as I was 3 mts pg with no 2 and feeling really poorly.
Dc2 was both bf and had a formula feed when I was at work. I stopped on her 1st bday deciding enough was enough. Shes now 12, pumps weren't great back then!
Dc3 was bf mainly but occasional formula. Stopped when he was 10 mts as dc2 had to go into hospital for few days. It seemed like a good time.
Dc4 was purely bf until his 1st bday again. I chose to stop.
Now dc5 has had bf and formula. He had his 1st bday last week and I had thought I'd stop, but I haven't and I don't really want to. I get so little time with ds that it does mean currently we get 2 or 3 very special cuddles every day. He is most probably my last baby :( should I just get a grip and stop now. I don't want to be bfing when he's much older than baby looking. I would feel a bit like I can't let go!
I feel like I miss so much of dc5 already. He's now at nursery all day 8-6 :(
