faves:
~still so easy to calm her down if she gets a "ouchie"
~ she is rarely ill
~ knowing that the longer i nurse the more likely i am to beat the oddds stacked against me with my family's history of cancer.

least faves
~when she nurses to sleep at night, sometimes my nipple starts to come out of her mouth, and she reflxiviely chomps down- YEOUCH!!!
~ i am sure there is another, but that is the only one that is coming to mind.

Faves-- The different ways she has of asking for nursie.
When she gets all excited about nursing and starts giggling.

Least Faves-- That she thinks she has to nurse most of the time we are in the van.
When she wants to nurse while I'm trying to eat something.

Faves...
Night nursings and nursing in public (ie, not having to pack a bunch of crap)

Not-so-faves...
Nursing in the CAR. It gets old. And painful. I NEED A CHIROPRACTOR!

Fav~ bonding with my dd
not fav~ breast infections...I got 3-4 of them while nursing my dd.

I nursed her for about 3 to 3.5 years. Now I am pg with twins...I wonder how long I will nurse them.

Favorites:
*The cuddliness and pure contentment of my usually very busy girl when she's enjoying mommy's goodness. Nothing else works like magic...
*The health benefits for both of us!

Not so favorite:
*When we're out in public (I NIP for awhile, but don't much now) and she throws fits wanting to nurse...and nothing else will do!
*Worrying about the well-being of my new bean (in the oven) due to probable high prolactin levels. I've never been able to conceive while nursing before. It's amazing and scary all in one for me!
