Getting stalked!! Tandem "issues"

[Celesse]

My supply issues seem to be resolving and DD has decided that feeding is now the most fun thing in the world- cos theres loads of milk!!. Every time DS is feeding she kind of circles the room, locks her sight on the breast, creeps up to me, points at the boob and announces and points "nammy nams?". Drnks and snacks dont work as a stand by.

Almost every feed is a tandem at the moment. In fact sometime I end up feeding a toy monkey as well!

I'm wondering when the novelty of loads of milk will wear off. She is eating less solids, getting squishier nappy's and I'm totally confused how I'm meant to offer baby the second breast or rotate sides correctly!!

i didn't breastfeed bella, but i have a similar age gap with my 2. bella's very clingy when i'm feeding lauren & wants my attention, so climbs all over me. maybe it's the same with abigail? she senses your attention is understandably elsewhere & wants to have the same attention & sees feeding as the best way to get it? i'm sure once she (& bella) get used to there being another little person demanding mummy's attention, when it becomes less of a novelty, they'll feel less "insecure" (that's not really the word i'm looking for) & be quite happy to go off & do something else

What about distraction for your other child? Offer a toy or game or read a story while you BF LO. That way, you are still cuddled up.
