    Yay for you and lucky Lucy!
    I look to long-term breastfeeders as role models

    Yay, that' is so great. How refershing to hear something positive about breastfeeding (outside an ABA meeting that is). It gets exhausting having to explain to everyone that, no it is not weird that I am breastfeeding a toddler... And so good that the doctors had such a great attitude, as so many around don't.

    You're right, Starfish, it's outside of the ABA meeting that makes it so nice! They already know there's nothing unusual about bfing a four year old.

    Thanks for your lovely comments girls.

    Jennifer our DD's were born only a month apart. As you know i had to wean DD early for various reasons...

    Every time i've been away from BB for a while and i'm back on i go looking for your sig and every time i see you and your DD still enjoying that special bond (ha! milkbond! lol, sorry) i have a little "yay" in my heart.

    I don't know if i'll make it to 4 wit tis next one, depends somewhat on the kid i guess, but i WILL be doing everything i can to get to 24 months. When i was PG with DD i thought 12 months would be a great time to wean, and now i know what the society i live in thinks is normal can be thoroughly questioned!

    Good on you lady!
