Feeding is still slow. It seems that at times, Elliot gets it: he drinks deeply and for 15-20 minutes (sometimes on two sides). Other times, he just sips, then it takes him/us 60-90 minutes, and he's still not satisfied after. I then have to pump and feed him a bottle. It's nice to breastfeed him, I enjoy the together time and the idea of breastfeeding, but I'm wondering how long I can keep this up. Bottle feeds are fast and efficient. Pumping is also fast and efficient. But they're impersonal and baby gets really worked up during the wait time. But I DO like the nursing. The new iPad is helping, or maybe it's hindering (as I'm paying more attention to it. than to the baby at times!).
