We've hit the distracted stage of nursing. So much harder this time.
I remember when Teagan became distracted by everything and it became tougher to nurse her. The solution was to go to a quiet room and tell DH to come in quietly. Now if Teagan is home, I spend so much time trying to feed Cora since she is distracted by Teagan stomping around the house and constantly coming up to kiss and touch her. I feel bad that I'm telling Teagan to go someplace else if DH is home and to leave her alone while I'm feeding her, but what else can I do? Teagan is so in her face, it's ridiculous sometimes.

Re: We've hit the distracted stage of nursing. So much harder this time.
Sometimes nursing in a dark room helps. But, I feel ya. My little one is quite the contortionist these days.
ETA: Do you give Tegan a special toy that she can only play with when nursing? That way nursing is a special time for her too.
I wish the leappad worked better, because that was something I thought would help, however when she's playing with it and I'm nursing she needs to be next to me. She really loves her little sister, and will stop doing almost anything to give her a hug and a kiss. Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy our biggest problem is how much Teagan loves her and wants to be near her, but I need the baby to eat during the day.
Maybe later today I'll stash some things in the bedroom where I nurse that she needs to do with her lapdesk, that way she can't hop up and move easily, lol.

and it will only get worse with Cora!
Bryce is crazy distracted too, so I feel your pain.
