oh well I just thought I would mention, as a matter of fact, today I have been bf for FIVE YEARS :-o

[harpsichordcarrier]

do I get a gold badge in the shape of a enormous nipple or summat?
does anyone know?

have you been inducted into the lactation hall of fame yet?

do I get to dip my tits into wet concrete?

oh my lord. i didn't bf v successfully but even then i'd have some difficulty schlurping them out if they went in. i might have to walk some distance before they'd follow.

You need a breast cake to celebrate. I shall bake one toot sweet.

Congratulations !

Like this?
Well bloody done!

oh do that anyway

wd though! shame you couldn't have a word with DS who never fed again after that nursing strike

Well done!

On the 31st of this month I will have been breastfeeding for seven years... with okay, one gap of four months, but I was pregnant at the time...

that's brilliant, well done

how many dc's?

Mrs JC
two dd's, with a bit of an overlap

Aw congrats!

I reckon I've crammed enough feeding into 2.3 yrs to last most people 5, but dd is a little milk monster! Still going despite not enjoying it since getting pregnant.

Glad I took your advice to carry on though, as I intend to express some ready for new dc in case of low blood sugar after birth (have gestational diabetes) .

hurray!
it is also very handy to have a tandem feeder on hand if you get engorged

well do ne harpsi! But whats a tandem feeder? - is it another chld on teh other boob? Or your DH ?

it means feeding two children together but not necessarily simultaneously iyswim
though I did do that a few times at the very special request of the toddler (dd1) who used to lean over and stroke the baby's head

Tandem feeding is when you feed two (or more) children of different ages. I had a friend who breastfed twins and then her new baby as well! She definitely deserves a place in the lactation hall of fame!

As do you Harpsi...take a bow!

Well done

Wow!!!!
Are you going to get your life back now

Well done, anyway, you should be very very very very proud!!

lol at getting my life back now
I doubt I could recognise my life in a line up
yes my dh says he wants my breasts back

hurray for harpsi and em!

I got to three years (incl 8 months tandem and counting) on Sunday

(sorry for hijack)

Bero - did you get my email??

Yes! I did! And I will reply, I promise!

(In fact I will now, if ds2 will do me the favour of staying asleep a littl bit longer)

Congrats, Harpsi! I'm at three years, nine months of tits in action time

woo-hoo!!

i'll read it when i get back from work. i'm not really here, y'see, i'm getting ready to go to work....
