is when, as he nurses, if he doesn't get the letdown he wants soon enough, he sometimes starts signing "please" or "more." And then when the milk starts flowing, he claps. SO WONDERFUL!
Though, the rest of our nursing experience is not all that encouraging. He fights me, slaps me, scratches my face, pinches my belly, jabs me in the bellybutton (I have to keep it guarded and even then he fights his way in there!), bites, and tries to flip over while still suctioned on. But oh well... I take the encouraging things as they come!
Hee! Sooper cute! My daughter (20 weeks old now) will finish off one boob, then point to the other and say "boob?" and make the sign for more. Hee! Another funny thing, she hadn't nursed in a while so the milk was more watery, she popped off and signed "water" at me, then laughed and latched back on.
The toddler acrobatics with my nipple in her mouth, heh, notsomuch though.

Cute
Elle is on and off and on and off until the milk comes. Then when she gets towards the end of what is available on one side, she gets frustrated and slaps at me It is like she is saying... Hey, I am not done here.
