5 Reasons Why I am Still Nursing

Well, technically, still pumping.

1) It burns extra calories -- 200 to 500 a day, to be exact.

2) I like that Stefan is still getting antibodies and lots of other amazing and nutritious components of breast milk.
Gamma-interferon, anyone?

3) I am getting an enormous satisfaction knowing that my body is still providing for his needs

4) He is my last baby-- I'll never nurse again

5) I am afraid that, when the milk is gone, my boobs will look like two pathetic flapjacks.


Exercise, today, was a lot of running after Boomer with Stefan under my arm, plus lifting and lowering Boomer until I couldn't do it anymore :)
