Am so confused

I am a reg but have changed names for this as I feel silly asking.

DS2 is 15m old, i bf him for only 12 weeks but just lately he keeps pulling my top up/down and tries to get his mouth to my boobs.

I know there is no way there is anything there now and i doubt he remembers, so why is he doing this? any ideas?

don't feel silly! I don't know if they remember... i fed mine til around that age anyway, dd til slightly older, there is really no harm in it.
hope someone has a better suggestion for you soon

has he seen any photos or anything - you bf him?

Has he seen anyone else breastfeeding lately? On TV, in a book or anything?
It's quite normal for babies to be curious about these things, especially if he is noticing that some people have boobs and some don't, he may be curious about what they are for.

instinct??

Whyishedoingthis · 11/01/2009 00:02

would he be able to relate a photo of him as a tiny baby and him now at 15m old?

odd thing is when he cries i get an odd sensation in my boobs like i was still feeding iyswim?

And trust me with his teeth i have no urge to feed now lol

Sounds like you're experiencing the let-down reflex (the tingling), so you may have milk at the moment. Perhaps he can smell it.

Any chance you could be pregnant?

Grendle thats a scarey thought! lol ds1 is 10, ds2 15m......but dp and i have been a bit...well you know lately lol

He is also being very very very clingy atm as well.

my instinct told me it is your instincts. Grendle talks sense, could be hormonal...

Whyishedoingthis · 11/01/2009 00:38
