If you were/are breastfeeding a toddler, what did you call it?

ds is 13 months and starting to get the hang of words. we call breastmilk "boobie milk" or "boobie juice" (blame dh for that one) but a few weeks ago my LLL leader asked how i'd feel in Tesco in a year's time with him shouting "BOOOOBIE NOW MAMA!!"

he does sign for milk sometimes, but i'm wondering if there are any acceptable words i can use other than "milk", because i want to distinguish between cow's milk and breastmilk.

btw LOL @ mawbroon's "turn mummy's milk with screwdriver" and chipmonkey's brother's Deep Fresh confusion!

Ds 2.6 calls it Gu. Handy in the supermarket as people prob think he is asking for upmarket desserts!

Ds1 is 14 months and says 'uice'
It comes out like oos, this is usually at the same time as pulling at my top!

hoppybird, my bro thought the freshness of the Deep was particularly important!
