Babies: 0 - 3 Months

xp thos w/ 2 or more

so lately I've been feeling trapped at home. I would love to go out but ds#2 eats every three hours so I feel like make a trip anywhere is hard for several reasons 1.) I've never really NIP (which I think once I do it I'll be okay w/ it) and 2.) not sure what to do w/ ds#1 while nursing I just know he won't sit still that long and I can't be chasing him around while trying to feed ds#2. so my question is what do you do w you older child while NIP so that they stay put? other than strapping him in a stroller (which would ensite a tatrum) I'm not sure to do. I could try brining him a snack but if he finishes 1st them he'll be up and running around anyway. TIA

Re: xp thos w/ 2 or more

  • I totally hear you on this one - for the first two months I was BF'ing exclusively and the only place I could ever make it to was Target....and that trip had to be within the 2-3 hour window for feeding.  After two months I began to pump specifically for the reason of getting out of the house - and was returning to work too - and it made it alot easier to chase DS#1 (16 months) while feeding DD a bottle.  If we went to the mall, I would strap DS in a highchair and give him something to eat while I fed DD her bottle....other than that, it was definitley hard to keep him in one spot.  Are you considering pumping at all?  I am sorry I don't have better advice.....having 2 under 2 for me has been a big challenge!
