Breastfed will Breastfeed

Here's Marissa with her baby doll named Baby Natasha (named after one of the characters on Sesame Street). She enjoys pretend play with her doll. She strolls her baby doll around the house, bathes her in a bathtub, feeds her medicine, changes her diapers, dresses her up & breastfeeds her! She was actually 'breastfeeding' when I took this pic and she looked kinda startled having to pose for me.


After nen-nen, Marissa gives her baby doll a big hug - maybe she's trying to burp the baby. Anyway, Marissa is still very much 'addicted' to breastmilk..... don't know when she will self-wean. She still cries twice or thrice in the middle of the night to drink her nen-nen

It would be really nice to have another baby in the family - especially another girl - and I wouldn't mind naming her Natasha (!) On second thought,  must close shop already as I would  need to  breastfeed for another 2 or 3 years... plus I would require yet another C-section for delivery...... Larry and I would have to postpone our 'honeymoon' together for another 5 years or so....  and the list goes on and on.....
