Mine will be 18 months old on the 30th. This is the longest I've ever gone. :D

Hey, Cheryl, your Faith, and Danica's girls, Rachel and Maya have the best birthday of all! I know, 'cause it's mine, too! :p
Hana

22.5 months :thumbsup:

22 months. We agreed that 2 was it from now on (the longest was 4 years 3 months ugh). So I guess we'll be spending our summer weaning.

Tandem nursing .... ds 2.5 yrs and dd 11 weeks

Tara

Elizabeth will be 3 in June~ :heart:

Which one? :juggle:

Patrick turns 4 in July, Rowan is 18 months old :-)

10 months :)

Almost 27 months! :)

Almost 11 months.

Joanna is 16 months.

Another tandem mama here... Mine are 3yo and 7mo :)

Curran is 15mo :heart:

Mine is 15 months. My goal was to make it 6 months. She is my first, we will see how long we go.

almost 13 mos.

27 months.

12 months. She learned to drink out of a straw the other day, but now she's been nursing a lot less. I think this may be the beginning of the end. I'm so happy we made it this long.

He's 14 months and going strong!

Going on 17 months and going strong!

He'll be 17 months next Monday.. and shows no signs of stopping anytime soon

I'm *almost* sad I can't say my almost 26 month old. She quit asking me on March 27th and if I mention anything about "mum mums" she says they are for her baby brother. Honestly, I'm enjoying my break for the next few months until he arrives.

3yrs 8 mos.

2.5 today :).

will be 2yrs on this monday and 6mos

Which one???

Saige & Claire were nursing am, afternoon & bed-time. I cut out the afternoon time & they were okay with that. Just recently cut out the am one & they are okay with that too. No sign of them giving up on the bed-time one though. I do manage to get them to wait till the baby is done first. They will be 4 in June.

Teagan is 8 mos & still nursing strong. Most days he doesn't have anything but breastmilk....his decision.

Kerri mom to Amanda(13), Emma(12), B(11,foster dd), Maddison(10), J(9,foster dd), Jonah (7), Saige & Claire (ID twins) & baby Teagan (Sept 2003)

17.5 months & going strong!

17 months & almost 3 :thumbsup:

My dd made it to her 3rd Birthday! Then she weaned 3 weeks later!:heart: She would have gone longer,but she was only nusing first thing in the a.m and it was becoming like coffee for her! She was so demanding if I didn't hop right to it! So I tried popping in "Finding Nemo" for her instead and she forgot all about me! It will be her 1 month anniversary on Monday! My ds is nursing and he is going to be 6 months. He is so different from her and he does not comfort nurse at all. No bottles or pacifiers ever(didn't give them to dd either).He just wants to eat and get it done with so he can get moving again! Dd nursed constantly.So funny how different 2 children can be! I wonder if he will wean alot earlier.....

NAK

DD turned 22 months & 2 days and no signs of weaning :thumbsup:

Turned 4 years old this week.

Aphrodite

28 months and 2 months. Very happy :D

My babe is 14 mos (15 mos in TWO days). I believe in childe-led weaning. He LOVES his "na-na" and knows the ASL sign for nursing! =)
:heart:

After 2 forced weanings (4 months and 19 months) :( I am proud to be going strong (as in, nurses more than a newborn) at 21 months! Woo Hoo!!!

:)

32 months:D

Just turned 4 yo. at the end of April & still nursing first thing in the morning, at bedtime and at "times of crisis" ;)

Almost 13 months with no sign of stopping or slowing down any time soon!

I'm so proud to have made it to a year with my daughter after all of the problems I had with my son (quit after 3 weeks). I know many of you have gone to 3 or 4 or more, but I'm just so happy to have gotten this far!

Michelle

14 months. No signs of slowing down. :thumbsup:

I'm nursing my 21 month old and my newborn. My boys weaned recently at 5-1/2 and 4-1/2.

Just turned 2 :)

33 months

She's almost 2 1/2 - longest for me cos DS weaned himself at 14 mths ......(suddenly and left me engorged for days :( )



Monica

Turned 5 in Feb

Laurie

my baby is only 5mo.

My oldest weaned at 6 and a half -a few weeks after the baby was born and he lost his first baby teeth.

Ds is 16 months;cool:

Same here!

Dd is a champ at 3 months. Ds nursed for 4 years 4 months and 7 days, but was down to only nursing at bedtime. We weaned because I was pg with dd, and at 18 weeks we found out she was complete previa, and I have a short cervix... If she hadn't been previa, ds might still be nursing!

3yrs 8 months and still 4-5 time per day & 2x at night. DD is going for that world average of 4.5 years (at least). I agree, We're doing child led weaning & I'm just waiting for her to lead.

Chole

tandem niursing my boys, Conor is 30 months and Kallan is 12 weeks!

29 months

My "now" nursling is almost 27 months old.....the other day I added it up, I've been nursing now for 10 years 21 months and 22 days. And put in 18 months of tandem nursing #1 and #2 (would have done it again after that, too, but #2 and #3 weaned at the birth of their baby sisters).

Which means also that for 10 years, 21 months and 22 days I've not had an entire nights' sleep--actually, longer than that because of getting up at night with a huge pregnant belly. sigh--no wonder I'm so tired all of the time.

However--lest anyone thinks I'm griping, I would never have traded these almost 11 year for anything.

WTG mama :) It is a big deal.. I know that when we hit a year this time I was thrilled.. We only made it 4 months the last time (w/#1)! I never thought I could have made it a year, much less almost four.
Every year is a victory mama :thumbsup:

SUPER DUPER WOW!! Im so impressed w/all the mamas!!

Caden was born 2 to 3 weeks early w/an induction due to my PIH.

We really struggled w/nursing and there were days I wondered if we could make it. But I refused to see an alternative.
We made it through that dark tunnel. We are in the light now and it's amazing

TOtally worth the trials. Im so greatfull for our nursing relationship as I see the benefits far outweigh just the 'nutritional' needs.

K im babbling. This really makes me feel good cuz in the "real world" I feel like Im in the minority. :(

Almost 16 months and going strong...in fact he's going through a period of not eating much solid food at all. though there have been times in the past 9 months or so that i thought for sure he was on his way to weaning and i was soo sad. but now i know he has ups and downs and i just don't worry abut it. My big boy loves his Momma milk and since we are going to let that baby lead when it comes to weaning...well who knows....

i do know that i will be slightly dissapointed if he weans before 5 since for soem reason i have it in my head that that is how long he will nurse. lol

Amber, Caden is getting so big on that yummy milk! good for you both...you sound so happy and so secure. I hope you are doing as well as you seem and i'm glad you are finding a tribe that you like...AMity mama's are awsome!

Samira is two and a half!

My lil nursling is 19 months :heart: :heart: :heart:

Emilianne is just over a year old.

eli will be 3 in Aug, and furby is 6 wks. first time tandeming! i'm proud of myself for that, at least

Rebecca is 17 months and no stopping in sight:D

Rachael

Mine will be 21 months on the 23rd of June and still going strong, although I *think* we have successfully night weaned. I hope I haven't jinxed myself by saying that. It's been 5 nights without...I think she is punishing me in the morning. lol

My ds was a premie, who I never got to breast, although I pumped as long as I could. Sometimes I wish I had that relationship with him as I do with my dd. *sigh*

Anna just turned 2 last month :)

I'm tandem nursing, my ds #2 will be 4 in August and my dd is 15 months. My oldest ds asks sometimes too, usually at bedtime if one or both of the other 2 are asleep, which might only be once or twice a week or less often.

I've probably post4ed to this thread already but i jsut wanted to brag a little about my 17 month old nursling who is still going strong!:heart:

20 months today. :D

26 months and 4 months. The women's breasts are an amaizing tool. To bad God only made me with 2 of them. ;)

Oliver is 25 months and is still quite attached to his "nuzzles" :D

Will be 4 years the beginning of August...and I swear he still nurses as much as he did as an infant...definitely showing no signs of stopping soon, and that's okay with us! Kind of funny, considering that immediately before I had him, I determined 6 WEEKS would be it...after having him, I decided 6 months...no more than 12 months. He showed me...thankfully! :heart:

I have two nurslings. :D

My dd will be 4 on Sept. 1st and my ds is 8.5 months.

It's nice to know that there are a lot of other nursing kids aged 3+.

I'm tandeming... Keegan is 3 yrs 4 mo and still nursing like an infant, lol and Bridget is 13 months... both still going strong! This is a real accomplishment for me, I only made it to 6 months with Seamus.

Fast approaching 14 months!

WOW!!! MOM!!! Everyone is doing such a great mom job!

roo is 18 mos :)

tig weaned for a few months while i waspg, then picked it back up after roo was born, but weaned on his own a few months ago.

Cyan weaned three weeks ago. She was three and one week. She self weaned and has asked and nursed since then, but it has totally lost its appeal for her and she will stop after about 5 to 10 sucks on each.

Now on to potty training. She is done, but still believes she should be peeing outside with Cooper (our dog). :rolleyes: Now how to break her of THAT habit?

Glorious, terrible, strong willed children. :D (This is a over dramatic grin just in case you were wondering... ;) )

Love Val

My oldest nursling will be 5 next week. I never imgined I'd ever nurse a child over a year old...much less 5 ! I just wish it was more accepted in our culture.

Blessings,

:waving: Hey Ashley!!

I just wanted to share something with y'all that made me tear up... we were in the grocery store the other day & there was a big old dairy case full of milk with a black & white cow picture on the side. Sean (my youngest, who at 4 yrs. 5 mos., is still nursing) pointed to the picture & said "Look, mama, there's the milk for the baby cows! I don't drink milk for baby cows because mama's milk is so much better!" Hmmm.... now why can't the general public get that point? ;)

I also wish that nursing older kiddos was more acceptable - my friends in the south of France don't think a thing about it... seems normal to them... Meanwhile, people here get all spastic about nursing babies in public but think nothing of having a woman walk into a restaurant with everything she's got hanging out of her top! Messed up thinking, I say!

21 months!

Longest yet with no sign of stopping!!!!

(I didn't post to this thread already did I? LOL)

Dd just turned 3 last month, still nurses about 3 times a day (which seems like hardly at all compared to a year ago, lol!) I guess I consider us weaning since I set limits but this weaning will probably take another year.:p

My dd just weaned on her 4th birthday. She is a bit reluctant -- she's actually telling me just now that she's not done and she's not quitting! :p What a coincidence.
I'm now nursing just one -- my 10 month old son -- and am feeling less drained all of the time.

he'll be 2 sept-25!:heart:

I don't have a nursling anymore...:( but wanted to say the ds nursed until 3mo after is 4th birhtday!

Kudos to all of you!!! :thumbsup:

I am so excited, because soon Jasmine will be 18 month and is still going super strong. Never thought we make it to 1 year...let alone 1.5.

Dagny turned 3 on Dec 14th and is still my nursling. :)

I am still nursing three. Teagan is 15 mos & Claire & Saige were 4 in June. Now that Teagan is totally aware of his sisters & their nursing, there are other new nursing experiences for all 4 of us.

tandem nursing here
Owen is 32 months and Eli is 3 weeks

Still nursing my 4.5 yr old DD, 2x a day on a regular day.

She's been sick this week and nursing more frequently again (4-5x/day). Ohh the memories of just lounging on the couch with her nursing for hours at a time :)

Chole

Mine is 22 months old here and shows no signs of giving it up :)

I replied to this post almost 1 year ago when Saige had just finished nursing. I was enjoying my few months of "freedom" before Alexander arrived in Aug. Now I can say I'm nursing a 7 month old. :)

4 on july 1st.. although it's coming to an end i think :(

Guess you can't edit after a certain period of time.. I am now nursing my 4yo (5yo in July) and newborn (3mo) 3/15/05 :D

Mine is 21 months and I don't see her stopping anytime soon... She is actually the longest child I have nursed!!

So great to see all these happy nursing older "babies". I sometimes wonder if my "baby" will wean before his older twin sisters!! They will be 5 in June. Mind you "baby" Teagan shows no signs of weaning anytime soon. He will not let Saige & Claire nurse. If he sees them he runs over & tries to push them away. He will tolerate one nursing on one side while he is on the other...but won't allow them to both nurse while he waits.

So then Saige & Claire fight over who gets to nurse first with Teagan. Never thought my wee little breasts would be so fought over!!
