My two year old has been acting that way recently (somewhat). She knows a new baby is coming and there are days she has wanted to "play baby" all day. She imitates babies and likes to cuddle and pretend she is using a bottle and wants a lot of reassurance. On the other hand, she still likes to be the "big girl" and be independent.
With the breast thing, I would just gently push her away and giggle and say "that is silly!" pulling up your shirt may just be out of curiosity, but a simple "No please!" may work. My daughter is interested in breastfeeding again, but I tell her she can play "baby" with her dolls. She weaned at 21.5 months and is almost 28 months now. We are due in about 2 months.
Just be re-assuring. Be excited about the new baby, but show her that she is still really important. When we get a lot of stuff for the new baby, we try to get her something too (not big... but if we are buying baby clothes, we get a t-shirt or something that she gets to pick herself) The point is that even at 18 months she probably has caught on to the idea that someone is threatening her "position" in the family.... and you just need to help her understand that she will still be just as loved, and just as important to you as when it was "just her".
After the baby comes... well... talk to other moms about that! I still am crossing my fingers hoping that adventure won't be too rocky!
Good Luck and Congratulations to your family!
