I'm Cluster Feeding

I must be going through a growth spurt - just like my DS. He's been cluster feeding the past two days, and...well, so am I. I seriously can't stay out of the kitchen. I went to the store to buy some "healthy" items (or at least bring food into the house that isn't Christmas cookies), and I'm eating something about every 30 minutes. Cereal, then a cookie, a banana, then a sandwich and some chips, then some more chips, then a latte and a banana nut muffin, a few more cookies, some more chips, and now my hubby is making dinner. Already thinking about my evening snack and dessert.

I am going to go ahead and blame breastfeeding. Who's with me?

  • I am not eating at all really. I had some mini pancakes this morning and that's it. I'm not really hungry and I don't have time or an extra set of arms to make food. I am going to lose my mind. This is the hardest thing I have ever done. And it's only the beginning.
    Baby wearing!
    What are you using? my sling and ergo are not until he gets bigger.
    I have a moby. I do still use one arm around her bc I freak out about letting go lol.

    I've been using the Moby, too. It's a godsend. It really calms LO down when he's crying. He'll be throwing a fit and I put him in the moby wrap and he instantly stops crying and goes to sleep. At which time I dash to the kitchen for a snack.... or two.

  • I'm becoming even more skilled at doing multiple things at once and one handed. That and I adapted a new routine that allows me to eat mostly when he sleeps.
  • Me too! The baby won't stop eating, and I'm hungry all the time.
  • Cooking is nearly impossible so I feel like I've been living on snacks, it's ridiculous how hungry I am all the time.

  • I switch between eating everything in sight and not wanting to eat anything.
