I know that I am weird about a lot of things but I am okay with being different and many people think that I am weird because I love to nurse my babies. I nursed Brody for 10 months and Tate for 11 and, I had every intention of nursing Rex until he was a year or so. I think I enjoy nursing so much because I feel that it keeps my babies smaller longer. With my other two, the second I stopped nursing they switched from being mamas boys to wanting only dad. So with Rex being only 8 months old I was not ready to give up this little bond I had with him but, with my surgery and all the meds they pumped into me, I had really no choice but to stop. And just as I had suspected Rex is growing up by leaps and bounds the past week. He now crawls on all four instead of his version of the army crawl. Rex can now pull himself up into a standing position by a chair. And now he no longer likes baby food, if it doesn't have lumps that he can gum to death he won't eat it. All of these new tricks make me smile to watch but they also make me sad because I really don't know when I will have newborn in my house again. I just wish I could freeze time and make it go by a little slower because I really am going to miss the stages each of my boys are at right now.

AHHHHHHHHH stopping nursing makes me soooooo sad. I had to stop at 5 months with natalie and stephen was only 6 weeks, I still cry when I think about it. LONG stories I wont get into them, but soooooo sad. I love love love to nurse!
I am with you! I am going to be so sad when I stop nursing Maggs. I cant believe how fast time flies. It will be so sad when she doesnt have to have me around... I dont even like to think about it!
oh my heck. that is excatly what happened to me too! i had my surgery and dried up in 2 days. sad sad day for sure. i cant believe he is 8 months old already.
thanks for the donations. i really do appreciate it! i can come by and pick it up or you can drop it off at my house if you are in the neighborhood. i dont mind coming to you though.
Amber just hearing about that makes me sad and I don't even have one yet. I am sure time will fly by though when we do start having kids. I miss the boys too and I hate it that every time I visit they are that much more grown up. I hope you are feeling alot better.
Seriously why do they have to grow up? I miss nursing too...but mostly cuz I could eat whatever crap I want and not gain weight. I swear I gained 5 pounds the day I stopped...so sad:(
Amber, he is the cutest thing ever! Kevin was over here last night, and we talked about your boys, and it made me realize how much I miss you guys! I will be back on Thursday, so be prepared to see me a lot those 10 days I'm home!
