***I was going to ask what your kids called nursing. ***

Dylan talked well and early.
He used to say "nertsing." "I want to go nertsing." or "Can we go
nertsing?"
And if he was very tired or grumpy and just couldn't wait one more minute
he'd say "Give me that stinking nertsing!" <g>

He nertsed until just short of his fourth birthday. Six months or so
after he quit nertsing he caught his first cold and he wanted to nerts
again so I tried it. All my milk came back. With gusto! And he only
wanted to nerts for a few days. : /

He'll be thirteen in May and if I look at him when he's sleeping I still
get that feeling like my milk is letting down. He still looks like a
baby when he's asleep. My baby. My really, really big baby. <g>

When ds was little he called nursing "ma ma's", and he called one "Big ma ma"
and one "yu yo Ma Ma", because the milk came ripping out of big ma ma and the
let down was so slow out of the "other" one, he called it yu yo for other. IT
ticked him off .
Dd calls it "noonies", and just points to the one she wants, calls them "dis
noonie" . She told me the other day that she loves noonie milk because it is
so full of goodness.
The whole thing is such a great experience.
When I was getting dressed to go to town the other day, dd told me I had to
wear a shirt, or everybody would see my noonies and want to drinkthem, and they
were only for her.
