I've got a 23 month old dd and am expecting another baby in late May. I'm still bf dd once at most twice a day though have stopped the 'cosy up in front of the 'In the Night Garden' tapas', so it's all quite contained. Once I got to 12 weeks or so pg, I thought that I'd wean her before the next baby came along, but now I'm not so sure. Aside from a bit of chin quiver, she's okay when I say 'later' and offer her something else when she asks for a feed. The main thing is that she's had a couple of ear infections and I worry that she's inherited my particularly shallow ear canal. I lived on banana flavour antibiotics when I was a kid, until they whipped my tonsils out and put grommits in because my ears were so cacked up I couldn't hear properly. Although this obviously wasn't a major disaster, I would like to do all I can to avoid dd spending her childhood walking up and down the hall holding a poorly ear.
I don't actually know anyone who's 'tandem fed' as they call it, and I'm not receiving loads of support for the idea from my dh, friends etc....
Any thoughts or experiences?
