How long do you plan to breastfeed your infant? One of my biggest regrets is that I was unable to breastfeed my son while he was in the hospital, and with everything that was going on, I simply didn't think to continue pumping for when he was released. Thus he went on formula fairly early out of necessity rather than choice. If I had been able to continue breastfeeding I was planning to breastfeed until about 1 year old. I have a friend however who breastfed her son until he was almost 4. To me that's a little too far. What do you other moms (and dads!) think?
