Breastfeeding your toddlerSTILL GOT MILK? Are you the one people ask 'are you STILL breastfeeding??' are mee nums still a daily (or even weekly) event? this place holds lots of nips (i mean tips) for you.
Yep , I am tandem nursing for the second time. I nursed Bailee and makenna together for 13mos. Bailee weaned just after her 3rd birthday. MAkenna just turned 3 ( no end in sight) and Sully is almost 5mos!!
Me! Erik turns 4 in November, Anders is 18 months. I seldom nurse them together, though. Right now Erik nurses just at bedtime, and sometimes at rest time (but not always). And then occasionally to help calm a meltdown. Anders nurses alllllllllll day long, and allllllllllll night long .
I am for the second time too. I tandemed my 10 and my 7 yo for only three months....now nursing my 2 1/2 yo and my 5 months old...I wonder if it will ever end? <smirk>
Hi, I'm tandem nursing my 3.5 year old DS and 14 month old DD. They would nurse all (and I mean ALLLLL) day long if I let them but I'm just too tired for that, lol!
I go back and forth about weaning DS as it really bothers me when I nurse him. I dont' know why but it just gives me a sick to my stomach/cold chill/hair raising feeling that I don't like. PLus he chomps down when I'm trying to take the "boo" back, which hurts!! I know I'll miss it when he stops though.
Well the "little" one is a wanting, lol!

i'm now tandeming a few times a day. I have to say how absolutely precious it is. Gedalya likes to stare at Tehila while yhey nurse and sometimes their hands are intertwinrd.
Me, for the third time too. My dd is 2 years 9 months and ds is 7 months old. My second ds weaned when I was in labor with ds #3 when he was 4 years 8 months. My first ds weaned when I was about a month pregnant with my fourth and I don't want to say how old he was. We just had to come to an agreement for him to wean or he might still be nursing.

I tandem nurse. Right now they are 15 months and 35 months old. We have been doing it since the youngest was born. Makes for some interesting night time positions since they seem to need to nurse at the same time ...
