He's obsessed.

He jiggles them, stares at them, pushes nipples like buttons, pours water on them in the swimming pool, holds one in both hands and talks at length to the nipple, places hands on them in a proprietorial fashion when we're out and about, sticks his head between them and snorts (honestly!), in the mornings he's on and off them like a wee suckling pig.

He's 22m, btw. The others were never like this, they just drank and left.

Whatever sort of a bloke is he going to be?

Oh the usual sort, I should think.

Ah, bless, that's really sweet actually.

how annoying

My ds still is like this - at nearly 3, and despite the fact I stopped bf him in January.

I think it's very sweet..... though it HORRIFIES other people!

DH just read this OP and said "lucky sod".

Malory, it drives me bloody mad in the mornings. I sort of clamp the bedclothes over them, it's the incessant nipple-tweaking.

I'd like to say that they grow out of it... but ds is 7 and is still very fond it givne the chance..

My third was like this. The nipple tweaking drove me nuts too. She did grow out of it by age 4 though. I had to tell her that I didn't want her doing it any more though (it was just getting embarrassing when she kept sticking her hand up/down my top in public). I stopped bf her at 24 months btw.

Ha ha ha

My DS is like this too. He likes to pull my top down at every opportunity!

DT2 is still obsessed by my breasts. Whenever he walks past he brushes them with his hands. At any given opportunity he buries his head in them. He talks about my "lubbly bwets". Sigh...........

My DS says such sweet things too: "I lub your boobies mummy!"

my dd is just like this. she's almost 3, & i stopped breastfeeding her 18 months ago.... it is sweet, but quite annoying too. she was giving dp tips on how to stroke them the other day .

lol@"lubbly bwets"

dd is still fascinated by mine but to be honest, complete strangers in the street are often fascinated enough to comment on them as they are so mahoosive!
even my own sil shows an unhealthy interest

Brilliant!

But you can end up feeling a little touched out can't you?

We're in a real nipple twiddling stage (both boys) and it's driving me nuts.

No constructive suggestions I'm afraid.

my ds (18 months) is exactly the same. He makes a kind of monkey noise if there is any kind of delay in getting them out. I think its funny most of the time but absolutely hate the nipple twiddling and i do the pyjama-clamp thing too.
The best is when he stops to give an ear-splitting smile.
