Ok I've been breastfeeding for 6months now. When should i stop?? She drinks formula wed and fridays when i work. She has been such a great, smart, and healthy baby. I haven't had a period since August. I tested back in october it was negitive. i

Whenever you and baby are both ready. They generally recommended at least breastfeeding for the first year.

Its all up to you. If it were me I would as long as possible. Its good for the baby and saves money.

A year is recommended but you can stop whenever you want to. Just wean your baby gradually by give less breast milk and more formula.

I am trying to go for a year or until he starts solids as in whole foods.
