Mom's who BFeed with babies around 6 months?

Did your dc get very distracted? My dd will latch on and pull off right away at the slightest noise. It's come to the point where I have to feed her in the dark bedroom. Forget about when we are out! Also, I feel like I have to make her eat. She never shows signs of hunger and I feel like she'll go like 5 hours or so without eating! Is this normal? I never let her go longer than 4.

DD will be 6 months in 10 days and she has been doing that for @ a week now. It's making me nuts!!!

my dd started doing that from 5 months. Any slightest anything, and she is off! even when noting is up, she'll still look around and get distracted.

sometimes i am sure she doesnt get enough to eat but we're done. I am pretty sure its a part of their development, because many friends said it happend to them.

as per food, i read kids this age eat eery 3 - 5hrs, so its normal for her not to eat so much. mine eats every 3hrs though, you can set a clock to her!

DS started that at 6 months. Then he would never get enough. Now he will be 7 months on Monday and I have had to pump and make BM bottle because he gets way too distracted. Now he is teething and using me as a teething toy. I rarely nurse. I pump and give it that way and he goes 5 hours now.
