BullFan, I wouldn't worry too much about it if I were you. However, we did use cold towels to wake our son up if we wanted him to eat more. We ended up breastfeeding him for over 2 years and he still wants some every once in a while now (3 yrs old), even though there's no milk anymore. Because he breastfed for so long, my first threesome involved my wife and my son. Dammit.
LOL! I don't remember doing a threesome quite that way, but any other parents have a bit of nostalgia for the days when your kiddo(s) were so little, that you didn't have to worry about them wondering what the noisy "wrestling" was in the next room? I sure as hell do. Now it's waiting for them to pass out, (which can get pretty late during the Summer and on weekends, dammit) and wondering when we're going to get a bigger house, with our bedroom on a different floor. (one's 10 and the other a couple of days shy of 15) Sometimes my wife'll say, "Dammit, the TV is so loud they won't hear anything. That's what the lock on the door is for!"
I wish my wife would say that. She is the one that insists on our kid being asleep first. And unfortunately, it takes him so long sometimes that I fall asleep waiting on HIM while my wife watches something unbearably boring on TV.
great advice. all of it. thanks a ton. Well except the undertaker picture. and maybe the threesome stuff. and the sprinklers. So unfortunately, my wife went to a lactation consultant today who told her that she has to feed at least 2 oz of millk at every feeding. And the only way to really know that is to wiegh the little b*stard before and after eating. Does that even make sense? Do I weigh a 1/2 lb more after hammering down a DQP with cheese at McD's? Im also concerned that my wife will now be obsessed with reaching this (i think) arbitrary 2 oz marker. also BREASTS. I just like writing that. Hooray Beer!!
It sounds to me that as new parents, yall are obsessing about this waaaaaaay too much. When the little dude is hungry, you will know. When he isn't, he will stop sucking. It isn't that big of a deal. You don't need lactation consultants to raise a kid. People have been doing it for thousands of years now and they didn't need lactation consultants or Rockets fansite BBS's to figure it out. So what did we learn here today, class? When the little man is hungry, stick a titty in his mouth. When he stops sucking and passes out, take the titty out of his mouth and let him sleep. All will be well in the end. Your welcome in advance PS, I like female t*tties too. Beer isn't bad either.
What's the kid supposed to do after YOU have already dried the mammary well? I'd go to sleep too, if it were me.
this is the only place Ive found them at... http://www.crapville.com/photo_holder.asp?ID=93 warning: may possibly be NSFW(sidebar ads) OT...gotta agree with MasterB's last post. let the kid suck till he is finished, dont worry too much about the amount
At least I had the decency to kick my cat out of the bed when trying to do the deed. Damn perverted cat was always trying to crawl under the covers while the action was going on. That all ended after my wife's water broke with our first kid. I guess the cat is afraid the same thing could happen to him.
Of course it makes sense, assuming you have a scale that accurate. Where would that 2 ounces go? Your baby doesn't have some sort of anti-grav unit in his belly, does he?
