I have posted before about my endlessly ravenous offspring, DD who will be ten weeks on Wednesday. She is still feeding and feeding - we are lucky to have 45 minutes between feeds before she is bobbing her head and crying to go on the breast again! Dismayed as hoped this would have levelled out by now. The good news is that she is sleeping for seven hours at night but I am finding the constant daytime and evening feeding rather draining and sore on my nipples not to mention restrictive, as it means I am struggling to venture very far or to get much else done. DM hasn't helped matters by speculating that the constant feeding is due to me not entertaining DD enough! I talk, sing and read to her, massage her, play peekaboo, action rhymes, time on the play mat, on her tummy etc and take her out when I can, (although she hates the pram which is another issue!) so I am trying! Any advice would be fab!
