Pretending to nurse

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
My little Lily is 11 weeks old now. She was taken from mom when she was 9 weeks old. She has this habit of still trying to nurse....on me! She doesn't do it with anyone else in the house. She will push her little face into my neck and lick and knead my neck. I can't say I enjoy it,lol....that little tongue is rough and her nails are sharp! I try to discourage her but she doesn't take no for an answer, if I move her off she just runs right back. I tried to get her to "nurse" on a blankie but she use it. So I'm at a loss as what to do. Is it bad for her to just let her do it? What else should I do to discourage this behavior?

It will lessen if not stop when she gets older. I have a 5 year old who sometimes "nurses" when he is on my lap. My shirt gets quite wet from all the sucking.
