Hi all-
When my daughter was about 2 1/2 and still nursing avidly
one of her grandmothers gave her a baby
doll with a bottle (No I hadn't seen it first).  Everyone was amazed when
she started to feed the doll the bottle.  They weren't sure that she knew
what a bottle was.  I promptly asked her why she wasn't nursing the
baby.  She looked at her chest, and then at me in complete disdain, and
said "but I don't have any nursers!"  I launched into the complete
breast size lecture.  It is a good thing that I didn't know about
insufficient glandular tissue then.  I might have given her the wrong advice.
