    ahah yeah I can imagine. I have a smaller group this summer because of that. I want to make sure to ''survive'' the summer with a good lack of sleep and my active group!
    did you guys use a babycarrier to nurse while at the park or on walks if need is or you would just sit down somewhere and play a game with the kiddos while you are feeding little one ?

    I opened my daycare when my daughter was 8 months old and I continued nursing her until she was 2 (although at the end it was really just evenings). I didn't have to nurse nearly as often as you will be with a newborn baby, but still I did do it a couple of times a day in the beginning during daycare hours and it worked out okay. It was sometimes challenging because there were times when she wanted to nurse badly, but I could not because I was busy with diaper changes and needs of other kids. But, you will be getting your baby used to waiting right from the beginning, so I am sure you will do well! Good luck!
