I have lots of experience with observing sib regressing after a baby is
born into the family...I have also seen older sib wanting to nurse after
weaning, they ALWAYS love it. What's not to love? 2 year old nursing? So
then it comes down to the family's style of parenting; attachment parenting
would definitely support this tandem feeding. Living it sometimes is very
challenging. But if you can live through it, it is very loving and
sweet...and very, very rewarding.
