- Pat my other breast with his free hand (As if to say, "Good boobie, nice boobie...")
- Gently run his fingers over my skin
- Punch me in the face
- Pound on my other breast with his free hand
- Try out his pincer grip on the underside of my arm
- Rotate the opposite nipple with his free hand like a dial
- Snap my bra strap
- Watch the ceiling fan
- Remain latched while pushing me away with all his might (usually while sound asleep)
- Knead the breast he's on (like a cat)
- Roll his eyes back in his head
- Pull down on my lower lip
- Reach into my mouth, hook his fingers on my teeth, and pull my jaw downward with all his might
- Take tiny bits of my skin and try to rip them off with his fingernails
- Grab and squeeze my love handles over, and over, and over...
- Take a sip, pop off, then pop on again for another sip, then pop off and look around, then pop back on (repeat)
- Pinch a small section of the opposite nipple between his fingernails (this is new)
- Feel around to make sure the other breast is still there
- If nursing in a carrier, reach out and try to touch doorknobs, open refrigerator/freezer doors, or flip light switches off
- Hug the breast like a stuffed animal
- Put both hands on the boob so it looks like he's blowing air into a beach ball
- Latch on, then turn his head to lay it on my chest and close his eyes (I love this)
- Grab the breast while lying down and pull it into his mouth so I have to follow (instead of leaning toward me)
- Discard one breast in favor of the other
- Sitting up on my lap, go back and forth between sides
- Burp with the breast still in his mouth
- Strum his fingers across the boob like he's playing a guitar
- Look around at everything except me
- Self-latch while still asleep
- Throw his arm over his eyes and rest it on the boob (to block out the light)
- Rake his teeth across the nipple (we're trying to stop this)
- Rest his hands gently on either side of the breast
- Gradually fall asleep, relaxed and contended. :)

A List
33 (totally normal) things my son does while nursing, from the cute, to the awwwww-inducing, to the painful, to the mildly irritating:
