Games on the Boob

My LO is 3 months old and about 2 weeks ago, started this game on the boob. Basically, she eats and then pulls herself off, stares at me, smiles, and talks then goes back to the boob like a little piggie. She does this sometimes every 2-3 seconds for a while. It doesn't bother me bc I think it's cute and I'll switch her to the other side after the game for a while and she eats like normal. Anyone else's LO do this? How did you handle?

Re: Games on the Boob

  • My DS has done all different little games. Very cute. As long as he keeps nursing and it doesn't hurt, I just play along.

    Yep, my LO does the same thing!  Dr said that lots of babies do this... DS is gaining nursing well, gaining weight and not hurting me so it's all good :)

    Yep! I pretty much can't look at her, though I still do from time to time bc I think it's important. So much for my quick eater!

  • DS does this and I just smile back and let him get back to business! The only time it really sucks is when he does it during letdown. Milk everywhere! Also when daddy gets home. I just let him say hi and babble at daddy then we get back to nursing after about 5mins or so!

  • Yup LO gets so distracted if I try to talk to my DH or if I have to sneeze or cough or anything she pulls off and gives me this adorable inquisitive look.

    It's super cute so normally I just talk to her or smile back but sometimes in the morning I'm like baby, you've got three minutes until we have to get out the door, better eat up!

    My LO also likes to play a slapping type game, she waves her arm around and slaps me like little baby high fives while she nurses, too cute!
