Fussy breast feeding

[wonderstuff]

Not a massive problem, but quite annoying.

DS 3mo - won't just get on withit - suckles a bit, then pulls head back, sucks fist, milk pours down me or goes in his eye, generally makes a mess - so I have to stop milk, cover up quick if out, yank fist out of mouth and start again - and repeat..

He is generally a real fidgit, if I take him out in sling he ends up nearly wriggling out of it

My DS (No.1) now 4, was a real wriggler when he was about to pass wind or fill his nappy - he gave wanting to feed signals, perhaps not always hungry, just wanted a bit of comfort and to help things along in his digestive system. Now have DS (No.2) who is 17 days old and showing signs of exactly the same behaviour.

Does your DS fill his nappy about 20 - 30 mins later? Is he colicky generally?

It might coincide with nappy filling. He isn't colicky, just figety. I don't remember getting into a mess with my firstborn

at 3 months the world a too interesting place for some (mine included). Can't really have her in the sling now as she can pretty much climb out and that was some 6.5months.

Can no longer feed when out and about, unless I go to the bathrooms.

Lucky us hey
