[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can make lots of excuses to sit on the couch and read, watch tv, etc., withe the excuse that you’re feeding/holding the baby. I binge-watched multiple tv series during my maternity leaves while nursing, and once I figured out how to prop up my kindle so I could read books while holding my babies, read more books for pleasure during those months than at any time before or since.[/quote] I read the entire Game of Thrones series while nursing my second. She loved nursing, I loved reading and snuggling my baby. We would sit for hours. “Nope, sorry, baby is still eating! Can’t get up now!” Four hours later...[/quote] Sort of related: it got me out of a lot of interaction with in-laws. All of a sudden, I had an excuse to go sit in another room and feed the baby! Or go up to bed early with the baby instead of sitting up til midnight watching dumb movies! You can always duck out of an uncomfortable situation because "the baby needs something."[/quote]
