I think my DS(3.5)has seen one too many episodes of A Baby Story. He has a beach ball that he plays with. He put it under his shirt and said "Come on Mom, I'm going to have my baby". So, he gets on the floor. He tells me to hold his legs so he can "push up". He procedes to raise up and count to 10. He does this a few times and then pushes the ball out of his shirt, announcing "It's a boy"!! If it were only that easy!

LOL! Cute!

My DS was only 22 mos. when his little sister was born so he was too little to understand all that when I was pregnant. However, after she was born he often stuck Elmo under his shirt pretending to feed him. DH was a little unnerved about this at first, but I explained he was just mimicking what he saw when I nursed DD.

ROFL, how funny both of those stories are. My ds just wanted to be BF after watching his sissy do it. I just told him he had his chance & wanted nothing to do with it when he was her age.

You're right, if only it were that easy.

Very cute! My dd did that when I was pregnant with ds and we watched "A Baby's Story" a lot. She was constantly putting her doll under her shirt and then giving birth to it. Then after her brother was born she began breastfeeding her doll when I would breastfeed my ds. She pulled her rocking chair next to mine, used a neck pillow (looked a lot like a mini Boppy pillow) and would lift her shirt up. Dh and I got a big kick of of it. This went on for a couple of months. I only wish I had thought to get a picture of us "breastfeeding" together.

That's cute!

Katelyn is going to be a big help to me with this one but I am not quite sure about Hailey yet.. I had to go to the hospital and Katelyn was by my side the whole time asking "Is Lauren okay, mommie?" she is so caring.
