Hello,

I am new to this list and wondering if anyone could give me some 
information on the effects of night nursing and night weaning on toddlers. 

- Why do so many co-sleeping, nursing toddlers wake at night to nurse? 
- What is known about the effects of night nursing toddlers?  What would 
be the benefits and disadvantages for the child? 
- Similarly, what would be positive and negative effects of night weaning? 
- Does night weaning create a risk of lower breastmilk intake or 
complete weaning when that was not intended? 
- How do other cultures handle night nursing into toddlerhood?

Thanks!  I would be grateful for any information on this topic.

Susan Manning
