When does self service start at the breastaurant buffet?

Just wondering at what age did your bub start helping themselves to your milk without you having to "show them to the bar"?

DS is only 5 months old and although he can find it himself when he's laying on my chest, he isn't crawling around properly yet so couldn't get to it if he wanted to.

Did you bub start doing it when they could crawl well or later? About what age?

Thanks!

DS is almost 9 months, he has never come over to me with my top on and pulled it aside for booby, he is always too distracted with the world around him.

If I am lying topless, or when we are in the bath together he spots it a mile off and comes over and has a nibble, he thinks it is a fun game have nibbles as he pleases. But yeah, he has never reached into my top to find it.

i'm the same as stella.. but it's a fun game to see how fast he'll come to me when I lift my top.. it's like a homing missle!!

DD never did, and she was b/fed until 11months.

BTW - love the way you worded the topic!

Ds does it all the time he yanks at my top until i give it to him he probably started doing it when he was about 6 months.

My 5 month old hasn't started doing it yet but my 2 year old started doing it around 6-7 months. Trust me it's harder when they pull your top down.. they do it EVERYWHERE!!!

My little man is 4 months old and has started putting his hand down my top all the time and grabs my bra - he even did it to his nanny - she got a good laugh and explained there is nothing down there.

He laughs when I take my top off cause he knows what's coming.

Either that or he laughs at the rolls (lol).

Mine is just 6 months and starting to get a bit rude about it just recently.
He's not crawling yet but he'll grab my bra and pull at my clothes now. And he gets really excited if my hand goes near my brastrap.
A few weeks ago I lied on the bed with no top on and put him about two feet away to see if he could get to me.....amazing how quick he could move with the right motivation.....only took a few minutes of squirming around and he chomped on

Too cute.
