I'm still nursing my 3rd and sadly my last child. She's 15 months old and neither one of us is ready to ween yet. Maybe it's because I know she's the last baby I'll ever share this with, or maybe it's because it took so much to get her here. (Countless ovulation tests followed by 3 miscarriages and finally a c-section...just had to name her Hope!)
The thing is, I've noticed now that she's getting older people keep asking me how much longer I plan on nursing. My friends and family have always been very supportive of my decision to breast feed, but some seem to be growing uncomfortable with it now. I mean, it's not like she's starting kindergarten for cryin' out loud! Besides, I've only had one period, a short one at that. since she was born and that rocks! How long did you other moms nurse for and did you get any grief for it? (I'm not one of those Mardis Gras moms that whips one out and waves it around for the world to see, I'm very discreet.)
