Now he's so efficient, I don't really have to multi task. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017328 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 20:08:40 +0000 Katrocap 1017328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can do things on my laptop and read hardcover books. The pages of paperbacks are too difficult to turn with only one hand! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017249 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 19:28:35 +0000 Bookish 1017249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm getting better at it! At various times I've eaten breakfast, read a book, played on my phone, typed up emails on the computer, or played a ps3 game with my hubs. I felt super awesome lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017231 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 19:21:06 +0000 Beehive 1017231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I remember the golden days when I could read HB or the internet while nursing! Now I can't do anything, or LO will get distracted and stop eating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017223 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 19:17:23 +0000 Smurfette 1017223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use my phone, check FB, Instagram, HB, or play a game but that is about all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017193 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 19:06:12 +0000 MrsScallop 1017193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At most I can use my phone a little, but even that is too distracting for her lately. Our new routine is for me to stand up holding her in a darkened room for most feedings, otherwise she thinks she can just come and go as she pleases </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017171 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:56:57 +0000 Pepper 1017171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh, I also mastered walking short distances while BFing him! I had to help my husband find something in the kitchen, so I just cradled him while he was still attached and walked around looking. I felt like a BFing pro! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017168 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:55:02 +0000 Pepper 1017168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If watching TV and using HB counts as multitasking, then I'm a pro! ;) Typing this while nursing my LO right now, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017165 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:53:03 +0000 MrsB2012 1017165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm getting really good at using the keyboard with one hand... the other day I buttered a piece of toast while BF :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017142 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:43:37 +0000 mrsbookworm 1017142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read books on my Kindle but that's about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017140 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:42:18 +0000 Foodnerd81 1017140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do most of my Hello Bee-ing while she's nursing. I actually remember noticing a lot of bees would be a lot more active after they had their baby and thinking, damn, they must have a chill baby, if they have all this time to be on HB. NOW I realize that it was one handed iphone HB-ing while nursing. </p> <p>I also google lots of stuff about breastfeeding and read things on Kelly Mom while nursing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017134 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:38:25 +0000 .twist. 1017134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yea, if HB counts then I totally have mastered multitask nursing. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017131 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:37:25 +0000 katsupgirl 1017131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try not to do much. I'm sort of grateful for the forced downtime. I am on my phone a lot though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017125 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:34:51 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1017125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If by multitask you mean shop online, then yes. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017121 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:33:28 +0000 rawrasaur 1017121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't move anymore cause she will unlatch, but it drives me nuts to not do anything at all, so I am usually on my phone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017114 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:28:36 +0000 chopsuey 1017114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS gets distracted easily so I usually stay quiet and don't move while I'm nursing him :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-you-multitask-while-you-nurse#post-1017109 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 18:24:12 +0000 autumnlove 1017109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't multitask unless HBing counts...my baby usually unlatches if I'm not paying enough attention to her. My MIL says she cooked dinner every night with a baby at the boob! :-) </p>
