So, talk to me about the around the clock nursing.. When does it start to get better? Every second DS2 is awake he demands the boob.. Sometimes he will nurse every single hour..other times he cluster feeds and within minutes of putting him down he's back rooting for boob.. Is this normal? I feel like I do nothing but nurse him! I tried using a pacifier, but he just keeps spitting it out!
Also.. Clogged ducts..I've had one in each breast and I've not even hit the two week mark! What gives?? Are they that common or am I doing something wrong? Both clogs have been back almost where my armpit begins...
DS1 was formula fed, but never ate like this!! I feel so lost despite having just done this last year!!

Yes! Tried it at like 2 am finally and that did allow me to at least close my eyes and relax a little while he was latched! The thing that kills me is he latches, sucks for a few minutes and then SLEEPS!! I pull him off, and he instantly wakes up.. I put in a pacifier instead, he flips out.. And no matter how much I mess with him to keep him awake, he still falls asleep within a few minutes of latching back on... Today has been better... Waking, eating a few times, but then sleeping for 1-3 hour chunks before waking to eat again... Just terrified what tonight will bring!!
I have, but doesn't usually help! And, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to tickle his feet while nursing in the football hold!! LOL that's the only hold that works for us, but no way to reach his feet! I've tried a cold wet cloth, too, but not much luck... He's a stinker! I did wrap him earlier in a rebozo carry and that kept him happy for a while without needing the boob... We shall see how tonight goes!!!
