Does saving after completing the Suicide Mission count?

I am thinking of getting the DLC for Mass Effect 2 and completing it but i rather not have to start a new game and go though the entire thing just for a couple of extra missions.

i am wondering, after clearing the suicide mission and choosing to continue to play, can i do extra missions (and thus newly added DLC Missions) and just save where ever and have Mass Effect 3 pick up the changes or do i have to complete the Suicide Mission again.

All of the Mass Effect 2 DLC is playable after the Suicide Mission. Some of it can be played before, but it can all be played after.

Decisions made during DLC missions played after the Suicide Mission are imported into Mass Effect 3. I played all of the post-release Mass Effect 2 DLC after finishing the Suicide Mission (Kasumi, Overlord, Lair of the Shadow Broker, and Arrival) and imported my Mass Effect 2 save into Mass Effect 3. My Mass Effect 3 play through did honor the decisions I made during the Mass Effect 2 DLC missions.
