Hi all, I'm a ftm to a 10 day old and could use your advice. I feel I really need to start getting out of the house but I'm also breastfeeding and he doesn't have a schedule yet so I can't predict when next he'll want food with more than a few seconds notice when he starts moving his mouth, followed by very loud crying shortly after.
I know lots of places have areas for breastfeeding and have read women also use cafes or changing rooms which I'm fine with, but what I can't quite figure is how to make it there in time before he starts crying as he is proper screaming.
Do you just let them scream for minutes while you find a place? If you pop into costa for instance you can't really just sit down without a drink but equally can't stand in a queue with a hungry baby? I've just not got a clue how to handle it.
