What does your nursing toddler call your boobs?

It's not instant gratification...it's a meal for christ's sake. Is having a glass of milk, instant gratification? Do you not let your child eat when hungry? Its also not forever and ever...its a few years. Some people like it...hell, I can eat some donuts now and then and don't gain weight because of it. That is in NO WAY why I do it, but I'm just saying. Not everyone looks at it as not having their body or extreme "selflessness." |

would you please share the research you've read to come to this conclusion? |

so why is OK for kids to wear a diaper until they are four, but not appropriate to nurse past the age of 18 months? It's like the people who demand that pacifiers be disposed of by the time a child is one year old, but who would let a child have another lovey without blinking an eye. |

A good friend BF'd her child till she was 3 and her husband practically pried them apart. DD is 20 now, a pre med student at an ivy league school. She has lots of friends, she's an athlete, and an editor of the school paper.
She called her mother's breasts "Nursie nursies." Back off ladies. Who cares? |

At least the daughter will be a doctor and not a "nursie." |

I'm the PP you're quoting.... and why is that? Not that it would be any of your business, but I'm not whipping them out on demand to feed him. He only nurses 1x a day, right before bed. When he's hungry or thirsty any other time he says *I eat*. Do I wish my husband hadn't been teasing me and taught him a fun new word? Sure. But its not like I have to worry about him saying it in the middle of the grocery store. And if he did, so what? He's 2. |

I don't care where or how you feed him. I think it's demeaning that your DH taught your son to refer to your breasts that way. Plus, you DO have to worry about him asking for your "Tittays" as you push the cart through Target. You really do. Worse, what if he points to some other woman's chest and says "Tittay!" Do you think that person won't care? |

A question for women who BF toddlers: What does DH think about it? Does he want your boobs back? Does HE... for lack of a better word... "use" your tits too?
A poster here indicated she breast fed up to 33 months... isn't that tiresome? |

I find the question revolting. In general, I feel the lactivists on this forum are seriously unbalanced and completely wacko, uand this thread seems like the newest proof of it.
w.e.a.n. before your child speaks words. p.s. I also recommend not quoting WHO guidelines, or living according to them, unless you live in a country with WHO field offices. |

It's hard to believe that anyone would think that "titty" is a fun new word for a two-year-old. I wonder how long before her husband teaches his son the c-word to describe women? |

what's so bad about nursing a child that can speak? please explain. and human beings with dollar bills in their pockets are as mortal as us down here in places where WHO has field offices. don't you know that? why is ok for us villagers BF our children until they're older and not for the lady who wears formals to work in an office? |
