I was just interviewed by someone from the Boston Globe doing a story  
on long term nursing. A few questions came up that I'm hoping you all  
can help me with:

1. What are some of your favorite "code words" your kids or others  
you know have used for nursing?

2. She would like to interview someone with a background in  
developmental psychology or related field to address whether there  
are any negative developmental or social issues around long term  
breastfeeding. Can anyone recommend someone with such a background  
who can be interviewed in the next 2 days?

3. Is anyone aware of research on immunologic or psychological  
benefits (or not) to long term nursing? Any references appreciated.

Please respond to me off line, as the journalist is on a deadline.

Thanks,
  Naomi
