Son pretending to breastfeed

posted 13th Jun '12
My son has been super cuddly lately and when he cuddles he likes to pretend to breastfeed, meaning he snuggles in real close in my lap and then makes smacking noses with his mouth, close to, but not on my boobs. I don't feel weird about it. I figure he is just needing mommy time and is a little jealous of all the nursing his baby brother still does. To me- it's just eh, whatever. And cuddle him.
However, DH thinks it's weird and although he doesn't care so much to make him stop, he says it's a little uncomfortable for him. Should I make him stop? Or let it burn off in it's own time? He doesn't even do it every day or anything. It's random here at home. And, we spend lots of time together doing things, so no- that's not the reason.
Thoughts??

I'd let him be. He's just a little boy needing some comfort from his mama. It's a phase he'll overcome.

I think it is super smurfing cute. I wouldn't try to stop it. There's nothing wrong with it, IMO. I mean, if he's still doing it at 16, then yeah

I agree,I think its freakin adorable. He'll grow out of it in his own time and as long as you're not uncomfortable then I wouldn't make it into an issue.
