I fear the change in output smell.
It's not too bad until meat hits the diet.

Happy Birthday JZ.
I am sure your dad is aware of what an incredible daughter he has and will easily forgive you for the late(ish) birthday happies.
I'm going to see how long baby girl can go on breast alone, as I fear the change in output smell.
Well, I've heard you can go up to three years or so. Mind you, people start looking at you funny.
Or I may have seen it in a TV movie.
I've seen it up to almost five. Kid turned out okay, but we were worried for a while.
The Dr. Spock books my sister gave me pretty much have the baby on meat by 2 months.
And I know someone who is just now weaning - the kid is 2 years plus. It's not going well. Actually, I know her husband, only have met her a couple times. He seems, well, without getting too judgmental about other people's personal lives, I'm going to say that the wife has been using the baby as an excuse to not have to have sex, and the husband's meekly accepted it.
Baby shields! Not just for baboons anymore!
I have formed no opinions on the timing of weanage.
I just had a nice ranty post about my new pants already starting to fall apart on me and somehow managed to navigate away from b.org and over to Doonesbury while I was typing. I didn't know I could do that.
And I can't stop fiddling with my belt. It's like a ribbon with sparkly D-rings and I really want the ribbon part to lay flat. It's not happening.

Exclusive breast feeding, though, or just extended?
Extended is not entirely abnormal, and I plan on nursing her until she's at least one, but I think almost all kids are on solids by the end of the first year, with most of them hitting that point at about six months.

Well, my in-laws DID just decide to become vegetarians for a while...
No meat until potty training!

Extended. Never paused to think about it, because even that seemed weird enough.
The Dr. Spock books my sister gave me pretty much have the baby on meat by 2 months.Really? How old is it? Spock recommended vegetarianism in his last editions, but I think did suggest meat, but not until after a child went through the veggies and fruits first, which I think he said to start at four months.

I don't even think up to a year is considered extended. It's recommended, and if a child can't be/isn't breast fed, formula is recommended for that first 12 months, and milk only thereafter.

Oh, dear. I think it's harder to wean an older child of anything. At about 18 months, they get stubborn, change averse, and suspicious. Anything you really *want* them to do by the time they're 2-ish, you need to introduce a good chunk of time before they hit 18 months, otherwise, they are convinced it is evil, no good, and also very bad.
Ow. This move may well kill me after all. I swear, in one swift motion of clumsiness, I think I just broke my toe, wrenched my neck, and gave myself a concussion. All I know is it involved a stray high heel, an open drawer, and the back of a door.
Before it's all over, they'll find me unconcious in a pile of the ugliest clothing you've ever seen. I won't even be awake to tell them it was the Goodwill pile.
