Ew, that's so gross. At work that topic managed to work it's way into our staff meeting. Someone's sister nursed till her kids were 4. I've also heard of ppl going till 6. Bleck.
my sister did that...one of the society's magazines said that breastfed children are smarter.
yeah, i've heard that too...but does it say that its best to do it that old?? those kids have teeth yo.
Ah but it's also good birth control!
Yeah, I learned we learned about the hormones stimulated with nursing in my Anatomy class. I know its been proven to be beneficial. I just think 4 is old. But hey, if you don't mind, go for it.
Oh no 4 year's old is totally disgusting, I agree. We were watching a comedian once and he was talking about his son and how at first it didn't bother him (breast feeding) but after a few months it's like "hey..there's a dude there" and when he walked into the room it'd be all awkward and his son would be grinning at him.
Hahahaha...ew, that is so messed up.
hahahaha..just look @ where your mind is...(although your right...& it's free)
yeah, well...i was at a gathering recently and a sister with her baby sat in a chair kinda near me, threw a blanket over her chest and began nursing! not a big deal really. BUT THEN SHE STARTED TALKING TO ME! and it was a little hard to concentrate and..encunciate. i think i pulled it off well even if i felt a lil funny.
i love when women do that. you have to say funny stuff like... " if he blows into one.. does the other get bigger? " (jt)
haha, i'm like picturing a kid, and his mother, both standing up, w/him just suckin away...not a pleasant thought...in fact that's gross, this entire forum should be deleted...no, not just this thread, the entire forum
IIRC, the Bible says Samuel was 5 when he was weaned.
that doesnt just have to do w/ breast feeding though..that could be weaned off a bottle..of COWS milk. haha
um.... correct me if i'm wrong.. but they didn't HAVE bottles back then...
i'm SURE they coulda rigged something up..what you should've mentioned is that they didnt have COWS back then....strictly camel milk.
THEY DIDN'T HAVE COWS?!? then why do we have them today... now i'm all confuzled...
Jahanna. They had cows. They sacrificed many a FATTENED BULL! many a CHOICE HEFFA! they existed then.
they used skins. and earthen ware vessels.
ew..yea..past like 2 years old is gross...we know this sister who breast fed her one daughter til she was 5...and the kid is like...BUTCH! i'm convinced thats why..she's like..this little iron butter ball. haha
IRON BUTTER BALL. Good night, folks.
dont mock me brian..i'll kill you.
