To start with, I wanted to feed for 12 months, to avoid any hassle with formula mostly. But once we got into it and it got easier, I really couldn't see any reason to stop. My goal changed - I wanted to let my DS decide when he was ready to stop.

I think, at the end of the day, you don't have to 'decide' on a time limit. It's only if something comes up that prevents you from continuing, or if your child decides they want to stop, kwim?
