I'm guessing there are a lot of experts here and I need some help!
My youngest is nearly 10 months and has become a violent nurser. It's partly that she's super-distractible, but even so, it's becoming dangerous to feed her!
She tries to climb all over me while she's latched on, so things get all twisted - things that shouldn't be twisted because it hurts! She bites, she pulls, she stretches waaaaaay back.......
The only time it's normal is at night, as long as she's tired. Otherwise it's just a circus act and I have to admit, it's getting real easy to hand her off to my husband so he can give her a bottle. An occasional bottle here & there doesn't bother me, but I certainly don't want to wean completely yet.
I do put her down and say "no!" when she starts to get all squirrelly, but she usually just grins at me and crawls away, the little turd.
Any suggestions? Is this just her self-weaning? Dang, I don't want to have to buy formula for the next 2 months!
Oh, I'll share my one Disney breastfeeding story - in March we went with my parents and all 3 girls. My husband, parents and oldest were riding BTMRR. I was waiting, leaning against that 3-rail fence outside it & Splash Mt. Baby got fussy and I really couldn't go somewhere secluded, so I just kind of perched on the middle rail, all hunched over and fed her there. A family that was French (I think) came and stood right in front of me, about 10 of them. They just all kept looking at me and talking amongst themselves, then looking back with a weird expression. I have no idea if they were offended or just wondering why I didn't just sit on the ground.
Must not have bugged them too much, they stayed for awhile, looking at me the whole time.
