Extended breast feeders - when did your baby/toddler give up?

Been feeding for two years now and showing no real signs of giving up, particularly at night!

Wondered how long this will continue?

Mine were nearly two and 2.5 but both self weaned in pregnancy. I actively stopped night feeds before that though.

Multiple mama, have I read that right that you are breast feeding 6 dc? That is amazing! Super mum :-)
My youngest is just turned 3. She was having just bed time feed for several months (with occasional day feed if hurt or ill or tired). Just before she turned 3 she stopped asking for it every night. Last few feeds have been two weeks ish apart. The last time she asked was over 2 weeks ago now so I think she might be finished. She still talks about it though and pretends to feed her cuddly toys :-)

DS1 self-weaned at 2.5 when I was 5 months pregnant with his brother. He was down to just morning and evening before I got pregnant, though.

DS2 is 22 months and still a bit of a milk monster, not sure how that's going to go....
