        This mom is lucky to have you in her nursing corner! I think no matter how
long anyone has personally nursed their own little ones, or how long it would
seem like prudent human behavior for other moms to nurse, we can all
appreciate ANYONE who nurses for any length of time. And anyone who has seen a
mom nurse through thrush probably marvels, as I do, that they nurse for 3
minutes, let alone 3 weeks...
