Hi I was tandem feeding until I was 46yrs and feeding my last baby until I was 47yrs and 3 months-he weaned ME I was very unhappy and unprepared because the previous baby had still been feeding at 3 and half years but this little guy was only just 3 and my last baby (of 4), in the end though I accepted my boy knew what he wanted and he was happy with what he got-I also learnt that you CAN'T make a child (or baby) breastfeed! He is now 7 and still cuddles with a hand inside my shirt.

Oh man, you made me laugh!  I'm 40 and breastfeeding.  I hope I'm not  
to old.  My daughter doesn't seem to mind, in fact, she smiles every  
time she sees my naked breast.

We struggled so much at getting breastfeeding to work that I really  
don't mind if she wants to breastfeed until she is 4.
