Actor and singer Audra McDonald replied: "I nursed my older daughter until she was almost 2. Still going with my one year old right now. You'll know when it's time to stop. Enjoy! She is beautiful!" Another user wrote, "I went two yrs with my oldest and three yrs with the second. It's different for each of us and however long you're able to nurse is wonderful!"
