evolves over time. The way I nurse my third and last baby is much different than the way I nursed my first. So, let's discuss the distinctions between nursing your first and nursing your last baby .First baby: You try to nurse every 2-3 hours. You pump on a schedule. Your breasts become engorged exactly when baby should be nursing: 7am, 9am, 11:30am, 1pm, 4pm, and 7pm. Then you nurse at around the same time overnight.
Last baby: You nurse on a set schedule, also known as: whenever the baby wants. Or if there is something you want to read on your Kindle app. Or if you are readingFirst baby: You have a few nursing covers that you use in rotation. You even wash them. Although baby and you are both hot and uncomfortable when you wear the cover, you feel embarrassed to nurse without it. You would never nurse at, say, a crowded restaurant, without a cover.
Last baby: You lost or gave away all the nursing covers by now. You barely even sit still to nurse because you are always running after another child, so the idea of adding another step to the nursing equation is ludicrous. Further, you now think it is silly to make your baby uncomfortable because someone might be disconcerted by seeing you feed him.
Last baby: You have no time to pump or cluster feed. You feed baby whenever he wants. For most of the night he is in your bed so that when he wakes up, he doesn't wake the other children. You learn to sleep while being suckled on. You haven't had a full night of uninterrupted sleep in five years. Eventually baby will learn to sleep through the night. Or he won't, whatever.
Last baby: Eat three-course meal, discipline two other children including pulling them apart during physical altercation, prepare snack for family of five, sleep, type on computer, supervise two children on playground, wait on line at amusement park.Last baby: Anxiety about it ending.Last baby: Being close to your last, sweet, precious baby.
