DD2 not content unless boob in her mouth help!
DD2 is 14wks and just not content unless my boob, her hand, or a toy is in her mouth. She'll nurse all.day.long expect for the occasional cat nap. I feel like she nurses 15mins, naps for 20, nurses for 15, naps for 20, wash, rinse, repeat. She's only content in the bouncy, swing, or playmat for 10mins max and then the fussing starts and she'll calm down as soon as she latches on.
She wont take a paci (at least not for longer than a minute). At night when I put her to bed she frantically searches for her hand/fingers/thumb.
Could this be a growth spurt? Could she just have a high need to pacify herself? Any suggestions? DD1 wasn't like this that I can recall (amazing how much of a blur her infancy already is to me). I'm going back to work next week and not sure how DD2 is going to survive daycare w/out my boob!
Mom to two amazing DDs ('07 & '09) and a fur baby.
