I'm seeking some ideas/ true stories to help mothers who are nursing
     their toddlers at night to hear a balanced perspective on what part
     this activity plays in breastfeeding relationships. I'm talking about
     those mothers who don't feel that night-time feeds are a problem in
     their families but feel bombarded by parenting literature that warns
     them of consequences to their children's sleeping or eating habits. Is
     there any research that reveals any "after-effects"? From personal
     experience with 2 toddlers who enjoyed some nursing at night, I can
     only say that it was pleasant for us and we now have 2 "excellent"
     sleepers (David,aged 4 years and Ellen, 9 years). Are my biases
     showing ?? Thanks and good-night!, Maureen
