Quick whinge

(2) Tandem feeding works well for us, though it's difficult to position both of them to feed together on my actual lap; in bed, Linnea snuggles up beside me and I hold Emer, and in an armchair Linnea stands on the floor and I hold Emer, but Linnea would like to be on my lap.
Engorgement, however, is much easier to deal with with a toddler. I'm leaking far less this time around. It's wonderful.
(3) I am starving to death. I can't eat enough.
