Charliegirl wrote this on the extended nursing thread and has asked me to post it separately so it can reach a wider audience:
I am still feeding my 23 month son. Considered more of a snack, as his main reason for doing it these days is for the comfort of it. He often likes to just put his hand down my jumper if I am carrying him and have a squeeze - which I don't encourage in public but most people just smile at. He has a 'snack' before his daytime nap, one before bed and a fairly recent addition of extended snack first thing in the morning, which I am too tired to do anything about. I find all this perfectly normal but feeling a bit tired of it, however I will let him decide how long he wants to continue.
My main reason for posting here was to ask what happens if I was to get pregnant again. Would the collostrum still come through or would the new baby get by with what was already coming through?
