I have posted before about my endlessly ravenous DD, now six weeks and one day. She is still having feeding frenzies of up to six hours, not just during the evenings and nights but often during the morning and afternoon too. Latch and weight gain are good (she has gained over 3lbs since she was born) and lots of soggy and pooey nappies so I'm not worried that my milk supply could be inefficient. However I'm just wondering how long this phase is likely to last for?! At present it is impossible to introduce any sort of routine and tricky to commit to leaving the house to get somewhere at a specific time - plus I am reluctant to go out knowing that DD is likely to want to be constantly on my breast. If you have experienced this, please could you tell me when it started getting better for you? Countless hours spent on the sofa watching 'Dinner Date' and 'Four Weddings' are starting to get me down...
