I can't imagine not feeding her on demand. Schedule, what's that? LOL :)Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15753633215551969706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981655623745680482.post-77825827554143444472010-06-29T16:02:12.234-04:002010-06-29T16:02:12.234-04:00So pretty.

I gave up trying to force a schedule upon them. I finally regained sanity and it was peaceful with the third when I just fed the little bird whenever he wanted. Sometimes it feels like all you do is feed them, but that passes. <br /><br />Your mamma now, only you know what works best for you and Mirabel. Whether it's a schedule or open buffet whatever works for you 2 is best. You're a trooper for even continuing nursing! It sounded like a rough start.<br /><br />I love the hat and dress, she looks so sweet!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03065763038341432853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981655623745680482.post-32433980941164380052010-06-29T15:31:24.800-04:002010-06-29T15:31:24.800-04:00I'm glad the nursing is working out.

I have complete confidence in my baby to know when he needs to eat. He is huge and eats a ton, but if you try to feed him when he isn't hungry, he won't take, so he definitely feeds with purpose. So I don't think you can over nurse them, particularly when actually breastfeeding. Michael is 21+ lbs already and although he is way off the charts my ped has never shown any concern for it because it just seems to be his genetics and he appears to be very healthy.<br /><br />Mirabel looks like a perfect little doll! And very comfortable and happy too!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01175822107540810154noreply@blogger.com
