OKay you know you are nursing a toddler when she is dancing, feet on the floor, watching the wiggles and yes nursing. Glad these boobs have such great stretch!

You know you're nursing a toddler when she kisses you goodnight and then kisses Na Nas good night too

DS is only 17 months and not talking yet but he does do signs. He started with the "nurse" sign (which I think is actually the sign for milk)... now he is just lazy and just pinches his thumb and fore finger together! He'll run up to me pinching like that, lol.

makes me think he's going to tweek my nipple but he never does.

Also when we are nursing he'll slow way down so I'lll say "are you done" and he'll make a yummmmmmmm sound and shake his head no. So cute!

Now, I have to say that a year and a half ago I would have been horrified by this thread but now I love it!!!

LOL! I remember when I first saw toddlers nursing and I thought "hmm, I guess that works for THAT mother, but I will be happy if we can wean at about a year." When he was 18 months, I realized that I was nursing a toddler and now that he's over two, I sometimes think "wow, how strange it must be to nurse a 3 year old". Guess we'll know soon!
