This is a request for info in honor of my grandaughter who still loves to nurse
very frequently and in respect for my wonderful daughter in law who is
expecting another baby in April.

Is it usual to feel "antsy" about nursing when pregnant.  I remember doing a
lot of grieving about the changing relationship with my child when I was
pregnant with my second, but we weren't nursing.

Mom was sobbing about being such a lousy mother, child in the phone background
was pretty explicit about what she felt she needed.  I think that this is all
sad but a normal part of growth.  And I certainly don't see that mom should be
feeling guilty about this transition.  But it will help greatly if there are
others who have experienced this and can tell us how they moved through the
time and how it resolved.  Thanks
