I have a dirty secret to admit that sometimes I let Brynn breastfeed nowadays for a prolonged time while I type, check email. or read the mail or talk on the phone. I'm sure she's not feeding the whole time, but she's sure to be quiet as long as I have the boob in mouth. I'm such a loser mom. Anyone else in the same boat?

I haven't been in that boat in like Forever, but yes, I did comfort my boys at the breast. The wonderful thing is our body adjusts perfectly for our baby.
Dude, Elizabeth's record is 90 minutes. And I took her off because I was bored.
Plus, why does that make you a loser mom? I see nothing wrong with it at all!
Hey, whatever works.
Oh YES. We are not in that boat anymore but we were. And if he still nursed, I'd still do it
Oh, not me! I've NEVER given mine an extra bottle, propped with a blanket, just so I could have some peace and quiet. Not ever.

Hey...just consider it a natural pacifier! ;-)
Works for me. I mean works for, G. I do that while I am working from home typing away. I will be talking to my boss and she will be eating/comforting away. Hey my thing if she will do it let her. I don't think that makes you a loser mom. It is bonding time. You and I both struggled to get our littles ones back on the boobies -- so if she will take it now keep it up.
Not a loser mom at all! I did that with Zilla, too. I tried to do it with Nae, but she didn't want to have anything to do with me after about 3 months. You're a FANTASTIC mom!
I'm doing it now :)
You can't force a child to BF, they will stop when they're done, so don't worry.
As long as she isn't doing it at TEN. I say have at it.
:-)
ummmm, that doesn't make you a loser mom. It makes you an awesome mom. Nothing like being a human pacifier. Might as well multi-tas while yer at it. I do those things all the time while nursing. Never thought twice about it!
Going on 9 months of the same exact thing :) It makes him happy and I can get caught up on some of my adult communication. It's win-win!
That is not loser mom, that is smart mom. And no different then using a paci.
Stop picking on yourself cause if you do it then it leaves nothing for me to do. ;)
All.the.time....shhhhh ;)
