They all weaned at different ages, but my present little one has nursed the longest of all of them. He will be three in August (in just about three months!). <br /><br />Enjoy this time, they really do grow up so fast! My oldest will be 13 in just 2 months...it seems like just yesterday I was nursing her! :)Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02988943988727801197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6967358197990347795.post-61708060528432820502012-05-08T18:36:04.269-04:002012-05-08T18:36:04.269-04:00Yes, we love our baths!

All the toys come in too, so if I'm in the mood for a peaceful soak, I have to sneak my bath. :)<br /><br />How fun that your mom nursed you till you were 3.

I didn't even KNOW there was a book about this (and she's my THIRD nursling!)

My mom has always told young moms, after a year, if one or both of the nursing partners (meaning toddler or mama) are miserable.. make some changes and don't feel bad if you end up stoppng. She weaned my brother at 19 months because he was a very demanding (rude lol) nurser.

I think it will be a great experience to nurse her and your new baby tandem...or she might decide at that point it's "for the baby".<br /><br />I nursed Zia until her 3rd birthday, and then she pretty much just stopped. I think in her mind she turned into a big girl and grew out of it. We still talk about "nummies" (in the context of the new baby now), and sometimes when we are in the bath, she pretends she's coming after me for a drink. I desperately try to escape, which of course brings peals of laughter from her!<br /><br />Miamountain girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07869429813347909683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6967358197990347795.post-45958669448173081242012-05-07T17:37:16.310-04:002012-05-07T17:37:16.310-04:00Thank you so much for featuring Nursies in your bl...Thank you so much for featuring Nursies in your blog post.

I nursed my second while I was pregnant with my third and he just weaned himself. I think my third one weaned at about 3 but I forget. Nursing is quite possibly the most awesome thing in the world!!!kyndalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881089642043005142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6967358197990347795.post-3523011369087454652012-05-07T09:35:09.904-04:002012-05-07T09:35:09.904-04:00I think it is great that your nursed, while workin...I think it is great that your nursed, while working outside the home! So many mamas give up when they combine work and nursing.

This was back in the 90's, so a lot of people thought I was a bit odd. But I know that my children benefited and so did I.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079484299531770935noreply@blogger.com
