I really wanted to do it for as long as I could. I lasted 6 mths with DS. He stopped BFing at 2 mths and then I pumped to keep him going until 6 mths. With DD, I wanted to do it for as long as my body woudl allow. Unfortunately, that was only until she turned 6 mths. I just could not keep up with the demand and work stress caused a rapid decrease. Its been 3 weeks since I have weened her.....my heart breaks because I wanted more time. Chat Icon
