Feeding Frenzy

This delicious baby is keeping me very busy.  When he’s not eating, he’s eating and eating.  Occasionally he sleeps for a few hours, usually at night, which is a blessing!  But all day long he cluster feeds and my boobs are kind of tired.

Is this normal?  A growth spurt perhaps?  Will he forever need to eat every hour for most of the day?  Because if so, I may need nipples of steel.  Seriously.  I don’t remember Dawson doing this.  And maybe that had a lot to do with the fact that he only breast fed for 3 months.  Maybe he wasn’t getting enough milk and I caved in and gave him formula to stop the endless fussing.

Mr. Owen, however, is a champion eater.  If there were a contest for breast feeding, this baby would win, hands down and mouth open!

If you’ve worn these shoes this nursing bra before, please send me your advice.  I feel like I’m flying by the seat of my pants straps of my bra!

Must go feed Baby Jaws. Again.

  2. Drink lots of water.

    And yes, I did intend for that remark to be an absurd non-sequitur, since I have no useful advice.
