Just got off the phone with mum. I told her Tallon has a bad cough this morning, and he's been wanting lots of milk, so must be sick (thinking how a baby knows to take more breastmilk when they're sick). Anyway... she starts on the whole, maybe your milk isn't nutritious anymore coz you're pregnant... what?? but you'll want him weaned before the baby comes!.. he'll want to feed whenever the baby feeds!... he'll take the goodness away from the baby!...

*sigh*

I told her that if I start to suffer feeding him during the pg, then I'm not going to be silly about it, I'll wean him if I feel it's draining me too much. But I told her I'd rather he still have my milk than cows milk, and I'll let him feed until he stops - but her response to that was he wont' wean coz he likes the sucking I told her I've got a book waiting for me at the PO box called Adventures in Tandem Feeding which will probably cover all the questions about feeding both a toddler and a baby. I've got the ABA booklet on Feeding during pregnancy, which I'll have to get her to read too.

And all this is just from mum... wait until everyone else finds out that I'm pregnant, and *shock horror* that I'm still feeding Tallon.

Angel - if you see this, I'd be interested to know how Kynan is going with regard to seeing the new baby feed. I'm sure this book will have experiences... in fact I've read that it can help overcome any jealousy issues and can help the two form a great bond coz they have feeding to share.

Sorry, it's a bit of a vent, but wanted to post in here rather than the boohoo room.
