Nurseaholic

"Hi, my name is Sarah, and my son Baby J is a nurseaholic."

"Hi, Sarah."

Well, I don't know what is going on. I don't know if it's Ferberizing backlash or if he's just extra-clingy or if he just wants to "suck on a hot nipple" as my husband would say, but Baby J just wants to nurse and nurse and nurse. Each session, he would probably stay on each breast for at least 20 minutes if he could. If I try to replace my boob with a pacifier, he will have none of it. He spits the plastic faker right back out and swings his head around with his mouth open, using his superbaby radar to find the real deal again.

It's kind of sweet, but should I be worried? Or should I just enjoy it?
