Anyone else nursing a toddler?

[Brees_Mama]

I'm 38wks 5 days here & still nursing my 20mth old. It really helps alot w/contractions but man does it hurt laying on my side at night so she can nurse.

Anyone else?

Nursing my 27m son, it gets rough. He's a very motivated nurser - so I end up nursing him for at least an hour or two every evening/morning.
It'll get better, thats all I keep telling myself. I loved our nursing relationship until pregnancy.

Nursing my 26 month old, doesn't give me ANY contractions, not even the slightest twinge. I can only nurse laying down, sorry I'm not help.

Still nursing my 24 mo old day & night. My nipples have been on fire since 35 weeks, it gives me massive contractions which my toddler loves to kick (OUCH.) AND my belly piercing has been infected on & off for weeks from ds rubbing on it while nursing. I am SO so so thankful that nursing wasn't this painful until the very end of pregnancy because these days it sucks ohso bad. But I've made it this far, & ds loveslovesloves his "boo-ahh" so much that I'm definitely sticking it out. I just breath through the nipple & ctx pain & figure its good practice for labor.

I am still nursing my 26 month old twins. It didn't really cause any contractions or anything but I did have the nipple soreness. It would hurt so much the last few weeks of my pregnancy. I nursed laying flat on my back cuz there are 2 of them. I didn't have any problems as long as I used a few pillows under my head.

I'm still nursing as well.

I'm still nursing my 21 m.o. DS. No ctx, but some nipple pain here at the end. Honestly, though, I think it's partly due to lazy latch (& lazy mama not correcting it every time) and partly due to DS's excitement that there is finally something in there again. He's really ramped up the nursing in the past couple of weeks.

Still nursing my 18 month old... we prefer to nurse laying down, and I'm not getting many contractions... only mild bh...
