My SIL and I have both nursed each other's children, when we have attended
conferences or were babysitting for one another.  Our kids are not only
cousins but also milk-siblings!! 

It is very interesting both as the "wet-nurse" who has a different child at
her breast (with a different latch, etc) but also to be the one to see your
child at another woman's breast (even a wonderfully close SIL) and the
attendant odd feelings that produces.  I don't even know how to explain it.
I was so very happy she could comfort my child at the breast...yet so sad
that my child would find comfort at another breast, that wasn't mine!!!
