Poll - When did you wean and were you breast feeding or Formula feeding your baby?

[helent1983]

I am just interested to know whether it makes any difference?

Looking forward to seeing the results. I remember someone did a similar poll a while ago and it was really interesting to see that the breastfeeders actually weaned later than the formula feeders on average! I found that fascinating considering that breastmilk is less "filling" than formula and a hungry baby is one of the reasons often given for earlier weaning.

Is this were "you" BF/FF or did we FF/BF our children?

I BF and started BLW VERY slowly from 5.5months coz he kept swiping food but I was only happy doing this as I was fairly certain he wouldn't take much before 6-6.5months. If I'd chosen TW I would have waited a little longer as I wouldn't want to risk feeding him toomuch before he was ready.
