Boob- nazi! :P

But in all seriousness, I love nursing as well. It felt really good getting Gretchen back on the boob. I never felt comfortable with formula, you know? Anyways, because I see you have experience, do you know how long I will be able to nurse Gretchen for? I'm almost 15 weeks now. When my milk turns to colostrum will she still be able to nurse? Thanks sweetie! :)

lol

You should be able to nurse her for as long as you both feel comfortable doing so. You might find this link helpful. Near the end of your pregnancy, the nipple stimulation may cause contractions and will go back to colostrum for the new baby, but if she and you want, you can still nurse her. No worries! :)

Thanks, that's a great link!

Gretchen just fell asleep nursing, with her mouth open dribbling milk all over her cheek... I don't think I could wean her even if I wanted to. She's a boobie monster!
