But I think I also have supply issues or he has sucking issues so it could be that he doesn't have enough incentive to focus. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-have-a-distracted-nurser#post-2445387 Mon, 01 Feb 2016 19:50:37 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2445387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is 8mo &amp; SO distracted these days. We are back to long nursing sessions because of her distraction &amp; now nursing on both sides, where she used to do only a quick ~7min feeding. I can't do anything but sit quietly for fear of feeding the distractions. It was cute for a day, but now I need to get stuff done! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-have-a-distracted-nurser#post-2444939 Mon, 01 Feb 2016 14:59:58 +0000 Dahlia 2444939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes. She likes to whip her head around (still latched! ow!) when she hears noises. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-have-a-distracted-nurser#post-2444930 Mon, 01 Feb 2016 14:56:49 +0000 MrsBrewer 2444930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! It started around 6 months! She will nurse around other people, but hates being covered! So that makes things awkward for me when she pulls the cover off! I normally try to go into a quiet room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-have-a-distracted-nurser#post-2444879 Mon, 01 Feb 2016 14:33:42 +0000 hilsy85 2444879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is starting to be! If she hears loud noises or music or I try to move from room to room with her while she's latched, she will stop sucking and just stay latched while her eyes zoom around. </p> <p>DS was also super distracted and a terrible nurser til he was over 1! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diddo-you-have-a-distracted-nurser#post-2444869 Mon, 01 Feb 2016 14:29:32 +0000 mrsjyw 2444869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS1 was always about the milk! It didn't matter where I was or who might be around, he just wanted to eat! :P</p> <p>DS2 is constantly looking around, pulling me as his eyes wander while nursing during the daytime! I just deal with it though instead of moving to a quiet area. He is at least able to finish his session, aside from a few attempts to get him focused! </p>
