Can we tie their arms down?!

Ashley • 36yo💍💙👼🏼💙👼🏼👼🏼💗🤰🏻

I’m totally kidding!!!!

But I’m looking for suggestions- my breast fed baby just started the “kneading” or “massaging” with hers hands/arms. While I think I read somewhere it helps with milk flow, it’s annoying as crap because she does it in a motion that pulls my nipple out of her mouth. So I’m constantly fighting to either hold her arm down or latching her back on over and over.

My husband suggested taking her arms out of her shirt and put them down by her body (kind of like she’s swaddled) but she pops them right back out.

She will be 3 months old tomorrow and is starting to really concentrate on the movement of her hands and arms but I can’t take it when she’s practicing while eating 😏
