Breast Milk

[babylove]

When I am breastfeeding my 2 month old daughter, my 20 year old son comes up to me and asks if he can be breastfed too. Do I breastfeed him or no?

Seriously? Your twenty YEAR old son?

If you twenty MONTH old son, I've got opinions. If not, you're on your own.

Okay, on another thread you mentioned that you meant twenty month old son.

It's up to you and your toddler. It won't hurt you, the toddler, or the baby, as long as you feed the baby first, or feed the toddler consistently so the supply will be aligned with everyone's needs.

However, many moms find that toddlers who have been weaned for a while lose their ability to latch. It's likely that your toddler will be interested in trying nursing, but not that interested in actual nursing, or nursing regularly.
