    So, my four hour old grabbed my shirt today, and is now pretty consistently grabbing things accurately (he's now 15 hrs old). Wieeeeee-rd. Maybe some strange extent ion of the reflex& it'll vanish or something.

    Also, my 2.5yr old is a breastfeeding consultant now. He took out my boob, grabbed his brother's head, pinched my nipple properly, and latched the kid. We'll have to talk to him about not rushing a nursing mama, but hey wink.

    oh, and the birth was an early milestone, too. 1hr of active labour. Not bad after my first took 4days.

    He's adorable. And a total monkey. His I wanna nurse face is a textbook primate play face.
