You know you're not feeding a newborn anymore when...

It feels like you're breastfeeding an octopus. Hand #1 is trying to find jazz fm on the free nipple, hand #2 is being inserted in your nose/mouth/eye, hand #3 is waving Monkey around, hand #4 is pulling your hair, and hands #5 and #6 are grabbing each side of the free boob and ramming it into his mouth. Two little feet are alternating between kicking you, pushing against you to wriggle, and rubbing against you in a soothing manner. All this is accompanied by dropping on and off the boob to: swap boobs, grin at you, shout Dadadada, request tickles, check Monkey hasn't wandered off, look round the room, generally squirm.

And I wouldn't swap it for the world. He's such a cheeky octopus chops!
