Things you have had to 'breastfeed' to placate your toddler

[Psipsina]

Tell me this is universal, please?

In the last week I have been forced asked to breastfeed:

One old rather broken doll with wooden hands and a duff squeaker if you whack her hard enough (known as the 'mamaboc', boc being milk)

one plastic talking dinosaur called Maurice

one steel ruler

one Baby Annabel's brother

and an ipod shuffle.

All accompanied by 'slurp slurp' noises, and followed after about 10 seconds by the toddler himself having some 'boc'.

Someone tell me I'm not alone.

eek

it's just us then.

Sorry no, but this made me laugh! Your toddler sounds great (and is obviously a great host!)

Thank you, yes, I suppose it shows a certain willingness to share

Iggle Piggle. And a monkey.

A sheep. No slurping noises though.

I'm afraid there's no way my toddler would share her 'miiiiiilk' with anyone else/inanimate objects!

So sweet though!

A tractor.

I wonder why they do it though. Is it just imaginative play, ie, I can do this so therefore this toy/doll/random item can, too?

BTW Iggle Piggle has yet to be presented for some in this household, I think tbh he would freak me out more than the ruler

The dragon from Shrek.

Mine doesn't do this but she does stop halfway through and blow full on raspberries on my boob then laughs

Oh that is SO sweet!

?? I suspect I have this all to come!

I stopped bf my 20 month old about 3 months ago. I now feed piglet, a baby doll and a tiger cub. All with 'nom nom' soundtrack sometimes followed by a quick kiss of the nipple plus some sucking. And then the final words "all gone!"
