Do you have any cute nursing toddler stories you want to share?  Here are
three.  If you send them to me by private e-mail I'll post the best.
 Thanks!

Diane's: My son would whisper to me, "Mommy, are these La Lechegg people?"
 If
I said yes, he'd crawl into my lap to nurse.  If I said no, he'd nod
and wander off.  No fools, these little people!

Lucy's: My daughter was riding in the back seat with her Grandma, a retired
public health nurse.  Usually Elisa didn't think about nursing unless she
was right in my lap, but for some reason this day it occurred to her as we
drove and she said "I want to nurse!"  Grandma, who didn't know Elisa was
still nursing, said "You want a nurse?  I'm a nurse, what do you want?"
 Elisa got quiet and got a puzzled look on her face as her dad and I
giggled in the front seat.

Marilyn: One time I was trying to delay my son from nursing in a particular
situation. I asked him to wait until Grandma had gone. He looked at me with
a sad face and asked  "can I  just look at them then"?
