I think that the issue is less of what is appropriate than what is not.
I refer more often to premature weaning than I do to any specific
length of time for breastfeeding. If I do have to address breastfeeding
in such terms, I usually simply say "normal breastfeeding". I cannot
imagine a perfect word, b/c from our frame of reference, we take for
granted that breastfeeding happens until it is finished happening. How
do we convey this to someone who has a whole other frame of reference?

And in your practice in the US, do you refer to premature weaning as prior
to one year or two years?
