I just spent about 15 minutes trying to feed the back of Amelia's head. I know what you're thinking, and it's a simple explanation - it was dark, I feed her laying down while we're in bed, and I thought she was turned towards me. I dont know how it took me so long to notice, but I only found out when I tried to guide her towards me and found she had a nose where there should be a tuft of hair She didn't seem bothered by it, so I don't feel too bad
i've had a few, but my fave was when DS was only a few months old, thinking i was an old hand at the BFing caper & not really watching too closely as he attached. after a minute or two i thought it was a bit painful so took him off & found he'd been attached to a random bit of boob. their suck is soooo strong that i now had an extra nipple! i thought i was going to be stuck with it forever as a reminder to watch attachment. it went down pretty quickly but i did have what looked like a hickey (sp?) for a few days as a good reminder
DS1 was only a few weeks old and I was feeding and thinking ouch it hurts a bit (he was happy enought) but had to finish my BB thread i was reading first and yep big hickey next to nipple!!!!
