All Eyes on Me

Well, maybe I just have a better attitude about it since posting - thanks for the encouragement Erin, Leah and Lauren, I think I needed to write to let it go.. I felt like I was so serious in trying to get him to look at me that he was avoiding me on purpose, so I just started playing his game & today it works! I tried being very exaggerated in looking away from him, virtually everywhere but on him and then I would look at him really quickly and surprise him. He starts laughing and isn't eating to well b/c he is concentrating on me, but I'll take what I can get :)

Hey lady...thinking back, i'm not sure my kiddos looked at me much during that time, if it makes you feel any better? However the Reverse Psyc. sounds good. Mostly the kids were in 'the zone' while feeding. They sort of just starred off into la la land.

I'm sure it must be difficult, but try not to take it so personal (if possible). Sometimes (like someone else said, feeding skin to skin...just that (baby just diaper, against your tummy-or whatever) it's the physical contact that's important.

love you!
