My impression was that there wasn't a way to reliably extend LAM
beyond 6 months - which is not to say that it doesn't often extend
well beyond 6 months on its own, but that the reliability is not
there. (I'll admit that I haven't read the research) But I think that
even for a mom who cosleeps and nurses exclusively and delays
introduction of solids, she may see a return to fertility at 6 months.
Just as the mother who is down to nursing only a few times a day and
is feeding lots of solids may not see a return to fertility until she
fully weans - or even well after that.
But - I would be interested in learning more.
