I just got back from a geeky physics conference at a swanky resort. I brought DS with me to the conference and nursed him through the sessions, breakout sessions, business meetings, banquets, etc. You get the picture. DD stayed home with DH, so many people assumed that DS was my first.
The wife of Big Shot Physicist commented in the elevator that she loved to see a sling baby around.
At dinner I was nursing and she came up to me with her two boys (~6 and 9 maybe?) and told me that nursing a baby is the best thing, and if you nurse them past 6 months you'll likely nurse until they're three. "The easiest 'terrible twos' on the planet."
"Yeah, my daughter nursed until I was 30 weeks pregnant with E when she was over 3."
Oh, and FYI: Nursing at elevation in a desert while jet lagged somehow results in a newborn pooping pattern. If you do end up in such a situation, pack extra diapers, wipes, and onsies.
