August 3, 2000

I'd have to say that tandem nursing is going well so far. I am not having any problems with it except for the fact that I spend a good portion of my day nursing one son or the other. But I don't mind. In fact, it's very relaxing.

Sebastian is starting to show some jealousy towards Bartholomew, especially in the evening when they are getting ready for bed. Unfortunately, he has started to take his frustrations out on his best friend Adam. He has taken to hitting him and pulling Adam's hair when he does not get his way. I am really trying to help him understand why this is wrong but I think that this is something he has to work through for himself.

Bartholomew is gaining weight quickly and is over 10 pounds now. He is a pro nurser and never leaves a drop in my breasts. He has started to sleep for about six hours straight at night -- which is great because I really need the rest. Breastfeeding two takes a lot out of you!!

Until next week,
Ketherine
