Spotty - I finally did the nursery curtains today, so I have that blackout fabric for you if you're still interested? Pm me your address and I'll send it your way for just postage costs.
FoD - T sort of bites my nipple quite often, I think with me though he's trying to stop the flow of milk for a little while. I don't have oversupply or a particularly strong let down (afaik) but he likes to suck to sleep, and milk keeps him awake. The HV at our breastfeeding group recommends pushing baby into your breast when they bite, it will block their breathing and force them to break the latch (without more pain for you) then say a clear stern "No". They'll quickly learn not to bite (apparently , I've not tried it myself).
Pidg - DH isn't very confident with T on his own. Though he's getting better and will take him out for a walk if he's expecting T to sleep. We also don't really live near anything interesting within walking distance. I can send him to Lidl (and did this evening) but there's no coffee shops or anything, and it's only 5 minutes away.
I started this post hours ago. Dinner was late this evening so I've fed T to sleep on the sofa, and just transferred him into his pram. Hoping he'll sleep there for a little while before I take him up to bed.
So, I want to get T out of our bed. Has anyone tried a 3 side cot by the bed? Moving LO into/out of it through the night when feeding. I'm nervous of just going to a proper cot as he's always been impossible to get down in his crib. He goes down ok in his pram, but it's that or in bed with me, nothing else has ever worked.
