[quote=Anonymous]Both my kids weaned around 3.5. In both cases, I decided to move things along and made myself scarce at bedtime for about a week or so and then we tweaked the bedtime routine for a while so that we didn't lay down in DC's bed. After a few weeks we were able to go back to the old routines without nursing.

My oldest kid had a lisp until speech therapy at age 7. No other developmental issues whatsoever for either mid. No cavities for either until high school when both had 1 or 2. Neither kid needed braces. Both kids had/have good relationships with DH and me. My youngest was particularly attached to me as a little one but always had a good attachment to DH, too.

Extended nursing was great for us, but at 3.5 I was ready to stop. I would not change a thing. Kids are early 20s now, both doing well on their chosen paths and seem to be very well adjusted (though I don't actually think that has anything to do with nursing.) I asked them once a few years ago if they remembered nursing. Both said no. [/quote]
