That is so sweet!!!

The breastfood she's making at age 3 is absolutely perfect for her baby dolls!

good decision. way to go!

i think a doll sling would be ideal as an easter gift for this cute young AP mommy.

DD has been trying to nurse DS since he was born. Poor baby. DD pulls her shirt up and sticks his face into her ribs. Not sure if she is confused, or if that is how much sag I'm sporting these days?

That is precious!!

My dd has 2 little friends that keep wanting to see Thomas eat. One is 7 and has no exposure to breastfeeding except through me. She was adopted from Russia at 18 mos, so to my knowledge was never breastfed. She sits and watches him nurse w/ her face just inches from my boob. It's hilarious!

Then another friend's 3 yr old was the same way! She saw me stick my boob in Thomas' mouth the other day and was suddenly fascinated! He finished eating and she kept saying, "I wanna see Thomas eat." She would not let up even when I told her I would let her see when he wakes up and is hungry again. So cute!

Well actually, you don't have to be a mommy to BF, you just need to have a mature body. Lactation can be induced through mental effort and pumping or feeding the baby until milk comes in. Men can do this too.

When it came up with my kids, I explained that they aren't old enough to do it and their bodies won't make milk yet (that I know of).

When I explained about men nursing, my son googled it immediately and found all kinds of photos and a couple vidz with men nursing....lol. He wants to do it soooo bad.

just clarifying the error, sorry to be a pain,
