Can I just use this thread to ask questions as they come to me to the expert tandem feeders??
Am feeding DS who's 2y5m and 1 week old DD. Some times I feed them together but most of the time separate. DS in theory feeds morning and night. He used to have a medium morning feed which I'd manage to finish with promises of breakfast. Now he attempts to make the feed last as long as possible and gets very upset when I try to end it. Counting down doesn't work. Have tried explaining that DD has nothing but milk so she has lots of it but he eats and so needs to save space for that. We also call DD's feeds 'milk' as opposed to his 'mi-mi' to try to make the point that they are for different things. We're getting there with that but I really struggle to end his morning feeds, any other ideas?
Also, I know there's no need to wash my breasts in between but he's on antibiotics and has been having calpol - is there definitely still no need?
Erm...think that's it for now but I'm sure the rest will come to me
