LOL, how else - except with Rachel's trick - does one manage the bedtime &
night feedings with toddler who wants to change sides like 15 times just
seconds apart, before making up his mind :-) .

LA just came to an end at 22 months pp. Pacifier at the hospital and at
home for a couple of first weeks, but since the baby kept on spitting it
out of his mouth, we stopped trying, uhh.. <blushed cheeks>. Did have a
some bottles <uh> with EMB, and a few, yes, <more blushing> with an ounce
or two of ABM when younger than 3 mo. Btw, from 3 mo to 4,5 mo nursed only
four times a day. At first I was worried, but he kept on putting on weight
1 kg (2 pounds) per month, so I had to trust he knew what he was doing. He
was 4 mo when I got familiar with the Finnish breastfeeding support list.
You won't be surprised to hear that allergy to cow's milk diagnosed at 6
months, I went on a cmp-egg-fish-less diet, rash and green slimy smelly
poops disappeared. Solids at 6 months, night-wakings started, wasn't
interested in solids until learnt to pick up food with index and thumb at
about 8 months. Still co-sleeping and breastfeeding at night. Have learnt
my lessons ;-) .
