Breastfeeding

Help!

I started back to work on Monday and am fortunate enough to bring my baby with me. However, he has really gotten off schedule since we have been coming to the office. He was feeding every 3 hours before but is wanting to feed every 2 to 2 1/2 now. My mom said it is because breast feeding is his security and he is not comfortable yet with his surroudings. At home, I can let him cry and do things to stretch out the time between feedings but at work I can't just let him scream. I am staying home tomorrow to hopefully get things back on track. What do I do?????

  • Will he take a paci? Can you wear him at work in a moby or similar? That may help make him feel more secure without needing to nurse.

  • Thanks! I havent tried wearing him yet. That is a good idea. And the paci works sometimes, but when he wants to eat, he screams anyway.
