I'm sorry you had the same experience. At least I know it wasn't just
me.(sigh) I was heartbroken when Alyssa stopped nursing. I must have asked
her for days afterwards. My husband finally looked at me and said, "Stop,
you're pushing. She doesn't want to nurse." He wasn't trying to be mean,
just saw I was getting crazy with it. I cried. I still have dreams of Alyssa
of nursing.

She loves it and so do I.
I love it when they can talk about it. My grandson was telling my daughter
that it was *his* booby the other day. She told him it was hers. Uh uh.
*Dat* your booby (pointing to the other one). One night she was dying for
some sleep, so she told him the boobies had to sleep. He wasn't buying it.
The *other* one could sleep while he had that one. <g>

I have my son on film at about 1 1/2 playing in the yard, and in his voice,
you can tell he's getting tired and a little cranky, then he comes towards me
and the camera saying, "Maa...num-num...num-num ma!" He then starts fussing
and I couldn't put the camera down fast enough to please him! He nursed till
a little over 2, longest out of my 4....he's 15 now!

mother was leaving a toddler with someone else for some reason. Kaelin got
quite upset. First you have to know that his way of asking to nurse has
been to make a donkey sound. Anyway, he was pointing at the child and then
at his mother and saying in a plaintive voice, "Baby, mummy, baby, uh huh,
uh huh, uh huh (donkey sound - best I can do).
