The Endless Night!

I thought I would start with a blog relevant to my most recent breast feeding experience, which was a very sleepless night.  My three month old son, we will call him (2), decided he would breast feed as often as possible last night to make up for a busy day where he slept  more than he fed.  Sometimes he does this and I assume it is a growth spurt, but other times, the 'why' doesn't matter because I am too tired to care.  I feed, and I feed, and I feed some more and simply hope it will end soon.  Last night was one of those nights, where the morning came before the end to breast feeding came.  I was, and am, exhausted but it comes with the territory.  At least with this child I do get some nights where I am able to sleep for six or seven hours straight because with my first son, we will call him (1), a full night sleep didn't come until after he was a year old.  Every kid comes with a new struggle and a new breast side manner.  The trick is not to compare or hope for something, but rather to accept what is happening and deal with it the best way possible so that you can be a happy healthy Mom for your kids.  Check back tomorrow from some tips and tricks to get through the first three months.  I will also explain the choice of the title "Bobbing for Boob!"  Stay tuned for more. ;)
