[quote=Anonymous]Six months. Would have gone longer but I was pushing 40 and wanted to try for #2 at the one-year mark. Was also unexcited about pumping at work. To the poster who inquired about saggy boobs: Don't believe the hype that it is pregnancy rather than BFing that causes saggy boobs. Pregnancy probably doesn't help, but I think BFing is worse. We just live in the era of La Leche, and the political pressure against acknowledging that is too high to buck. I found that even six months of BFing and pumping with a hospital-grade pump made my once spectacular boobs look deflated and saggy, like those of a grandma. Even a mammographer commented on the dramatic change in eighteen months--I looked like a different person on the x-ray images. My mother had three kids but did not BF at all, and hers didn't start to sag until her late 60s.[/quote]
