I vote for "sustained nursing"--it does have a warm, loving sound to it. While we are discussing terms, can we get away from DEMAND FEEDING (distasteful, making Baby sound like a little dictator!). I prefer "cue feeding" or "feeding on cue" (whatever!), since it puts infants in a more positive light, giving them credit for their innate intelligence about their bodies. Such a little change in phrasing, but little changes can lead to big ones! Carole __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
