I have no clue about the STTN! I'm assuming it's because the child doesn't nap EVER and is constantly attached to the boob. By the time he goes to bed he's so full and my nips are so purple that he has to STTN! LOLOL!
Will is reverse cycling...he takes the bare minimum at daycare (only about 9 ounces in 9 hours) and then nurses every 1 1/2 - 2 hours from the time we get home until the alarm goes off at 4:30 the next morning.
Unfortunately, with this reverse cycling crap, there's really nothing that can be done. So, I just go to bed with Will around 8 or 8:30. Besides...it allows us to make up for all of the missed cuddle time during the day!
We're doing well. We fired Will's babysitter yesterday. She's taken on too many kids, and she's totally unsupportive of BFing, so she's going bye bye. His new babysitter is much, much better!
You know, I dreaded going back to work too...and it was hard the first couple of days, but then it got to the point where I actually enjoyed it. I didn't realize how much I missed having a reason to shower every day. :-) It was also nice to have interaction with other adults.

I'm so freaking jealous.

How are YOU doing? Adjusting to mommyhood okay?
Oh no!!
I can imagine that sucking a lot
I wish I had advice, but I'm so new at this I have none. Boo!
I am LOVING mommyhood. I have 3 1/2 weeks left before going back to work and I'm dreading it so much! How about you- how are you and Will doing?
