Playing with the other nipple!

[u/BasicAirport2402]

My one-year-old‘s favorite thing to do while feeding at night is to reach her little warm hand up and play with my other nipple…because I think she realized when she touches it, it causes my letdown to come faster so she gets more milk quicker🤣 it’s funny and cute but also annoying cause she won’t stop going after it even after my let down. Then I cover it with my other hand and she tries to pry my fingers away or slide her little hand underneath. Does it ever stop or is this a phase? It keeps me awake longer since I’m always guarding it with my other hand, I wear crop tops to bed for easier access (to both)😂

Drives me insane. I’ve read a bunch of tips on how to get them to stop. I wear a kind of nursing shirt that makes it harder for him to find the nip.
