When I finish one side he will tell me that she needs more milk and that she's still hungry LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-496910 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 00:34:06 +0000 runsyellowlites 496910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: We're thinking of trying around P's 1st birthday. Most of the moms in my AP group and a good handful in my Natural Moms group have been able to nurse through. I figure as long as P doesn't "need" it then I'm okay with her weaning if I lose supply or have taste changes. She REALLY loves nursing though so I could see her sticking with it, or maybe weaning but going back to nursing after the next arrives (I've heard that happens too). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-496686 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 23:11:18 +0000 Mrs. Pen 496686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: you're having another one soon? I've only known one mama who nursed through pregnancy - most mama's dry up in the first trimester! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-496662 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 23:05:26 +0000 Andrea 496662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: she may surprise you. I am super surprised about L! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-496598 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 22:46:56 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 496598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When Sienna was born Mavrick like Charlie was 22 months old. NOT ONCE and I repeat NOT ONCE has he asked for the boob, or pulled his sister away. I'm still shocked to this day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-496535 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 22:26:43 +0000 autumnlove 496535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I hope my LO is ok with it! I think she is possessive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495587 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 20:22:40 +0000 Andrea 495587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: she's surprisingly accepting of it and not jealous. When she first saw me nurse, I told her that the baby drinks mommy's milk and she just said OK. Now she calls it "mommy's milk". Tonight she didn't want to share her dried prunes with my mom (go figure). So I asked if she would share with K and she said "No, she doesn't have any teeth!". Haha, totally random but for some reason this made me think of that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495529 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 20:15:09 +0000 autumnlove 495529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: Lol, is she fascinated by your milk makers?! Your LO is cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495525 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 20:14:10 +0000 Boogs 495525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always worry about this when we have more kids, so this is great info! I'm hoping by the time LO is older, he'll be too busy to mind if we have another baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495475 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 20:08:15 +0000 Andrea 495475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She doesn't seem interested to nurse, thank goodness. She just goofs around and touches my boobs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495289 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 19:43:20 +0000 autumnlove 495289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Impressive! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495272 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 19:41:19 +0000 runsyellowlites 495272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 8 so he just goes about his business. lol</p> <p>Hopefully P will still be nursing/nursing age so I'll just tandem nurse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495268 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 19:40:44 +0000 mediagirl 495268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: that's adorable. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495266 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 19:40:31 +0000 chopsuey 495266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>she plays and sometimes asks for boob. I've actually been nursing my daughter before nap and bedtime. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495261 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 19:39:44 +0000 Foodnerd81 495261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom tells me she would read to my brother while she nursed my sister-- he was less than 2 years when she was born. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495248 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 19:38:23 +0000 Mrs. Bee 495248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>charlie was 22 months when olive was born. he was a little jealous in the beginning, but overall handled it very well. he would say "i want to drink milk from that boob." haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-495237 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 19:37:24 +0000 T-Mom 495237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sadly my DD watched quite a bit of TV while I nursed DS. We had to wean her off the tv after I weaned DS! Sometimes I has to multi task and to stuff like feed her dinner while nursing. Boy that was a rough time, so glad it's over! Tv sounds like a good plan as any for you :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-your-older-lo-do-when-you-are-nursing-your-baby#post-494922 Thu, 10 Jan 2013 18:43:45 +0000 autumnlove 494922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think my LO will be very curious when I nurse the new baby. She will be 16 months old and I worry about her getting jealous! Maybe this would be a good time to introduce her to TV? :-) </p>
