Nursing the new born and feeding the toddler at the same time.

I have a very loving 11 month old little boy, a 6 year old and I am 5 months pregnant. I am due mid June! My husband work's nights driving truck and sleep's all day. When the baby is born I will be nursing for at least 5 months. My question is, how do I feed my baby boy his bottle and nurse the infant at the same time? I can't very well tell my baby boy he has to wait until the infant is done eating and then he can eat.

dont worry about it too much it will all work out you'll see. Besides the best way to deal with it while you feed the baby is to give your toddler finger foods in his chair and either his bottle or sippy cup. He'll be happy as a clam. :-) They will give you a workout though lol.

Won't your 11 month old be off the bottle by the time your new baby is born? If he is not, can't he feed himself his bottle..
