Glad I found your blog, Sam. My son weaned a little after turning 3. He told me several years ago that he remembered nursing, but I didn&#39;t ask for details. He&#39;s 18 now - I&#39;m not sure if I *could* ask! He said something else wonderful to me recently - about my work. This reminds me that I want to write about it.TO Doulahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11454602190269714190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2824034147018793979.post-56734766788320774902009-05-06T17:10:00.000-04:002009-05-06T17:10:00.000-04:00I have friends who only nursed because their husbands encouraged them to. That is great that your son realizes the importance of breastfeeding!Melissahttp://www.melissaclee.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2824034147018793979.post-32203765336529453482009-05-06T00:37:00.000-04:002009-05-06T00:37:00.000-04:00Love it!Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05544412975039772417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2824034147018793979.post-56606478893740252882009-05-06T00:28:00.000-04:002009-05-06T00:28:00.000-04:00Aww! What a great post! My oldest kind of remembers but I don't think she could recall it like your son. Guess I should have kept going!

Sometimes it is hard to think about what nursing our children does for them in other areas of their life, out side of health.Malloryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04991788960863652000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2824034147018793979.post-45236093866392401972009-05-05T13:03:00.000-04:002009-05-05T13:03:00.000-04:00Thank you so much for your kind words @Sea_Gal and @Annie. I often think about my breastfeeding relationship, now that it has finished, in terms of how it impacted my own life. It was lovely to have a chance to speak with Fergus about how he remembers it.<br />Funny you should mention male LLL Leaders. My friend, T, mentioned in the post, is an LLL Leader. Her son is the kind of guy who DOES help his friends and their wives when there are new babies in their circle. I can totally see Ferg moving into the role when he gets older. He has certainly attended a significant number of breastfeeding consultations in his short life.<br />Thanks again. It was great fun to write this.Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04210544615668279595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2824034147018793979.post-19985796215153702362009-05-05T12:44:00.000-04:002009-05-05T12:44:00.000-04:00What a beautiful post Sam. You have me weeping over my lunch here. I'm not sure if there are any male LLL leaders out there, but I think Ferg is well on his way to becoming one!Annie @ PhD in Parentinghttp://www.phdinparenting.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2824034147018793979.post-6261770852677781872009-05-05T12:37:00.000-04:002009-05-05T12:37:00.000-04:00Your's is my favorite.
