Kneading my norks!!

Ds is coming up to 6 months now, 24 weeks. Anyway, he's a real pain to feed, particularly at night. He kneads and pinches my breast often leaving bruises on them and it hurts. I can stop him during th day by holding his hands but at night I'm usually half asleep.

I think this speeds letdown, but yeah, it sucks. Can you try to put a toy in his hands to keep them busy?

Oh I see. I remember watching seeing kittens doing this with the cat.
Toy is a good idea

There are bf necklaces, too, but a toy is easier/cheaper, I think.

I'm afraid of looking a bit too earth mothery with one of those. He's strong enough to yank it anyway (and too expensive)
