Please read this unbelievable story(and the follow-up). I don't understand why folks still have such problems with this!
I nursed my last "baby" til 3 months before her 5th birthday. Yeah, she's just fine. In fact, she's my most precocious child by far. She potty trained herself(need help? no thank you, do it myself) at around 20 months. She didn't, wouldn't take a bottle or sippy cup, it had to be me. I nursed her in cars, I nursed her in stores, at barbecues, at other social occasions, at church, in front of friends, and in front of strangers. Basically whenever she asked. No one ever said anything to me, thank God, but there were times when I felt vulnerable and uncomfortable. Still, I rarely covered up(who the heck carries a blanket around with their third child??).

thank you so much for this - the support means a lot!
I nursed my baby until she was 3 years and 8 months. She told me one morning she was a big girl and wasn't going to have na-na anymore. She only "fell off the wagon" once about a week later. I alway smile at nursing women. I hope it gives them confidence and reassurance.
