DS3 just had a few days of fussy Bfeeding (crying cos hungry, crying when try to feed him etc..)

I assumed it was cos I was ill and on antibiotics but also struck me that I had my period at same time and vaguely remember this might have been the case with other kids. Does this sound right? Does it just taste different dya reckon?

Apparently this isn't unusual....if I remeber correctly, having the period can effect the supply!

I think I read somewhere that it can taste salty around period time. kellymom I think.

oh how INTERESTING
I was just wondering this for various reasons and here this thread was.

kikid it is different for everyone and also depends on how long you feed for, how often, how often in the night and how much solid food your child is eating amongst many other variables. I've just had my first period (BOO) and DS is 9 months
