Just thought I would post an update.

Alana's lastest weight is 9.4kgs. Another fantastic weight gain. She had her paed appointment today and he is very happy with her progress. She is now above the 50th percentile.

We mentioned that she is still getting constipated, but he seems to feel that its due to her not drinking enough water. We have been trying, but we find the only way is to get her to drink it is in a mug. Very messy and she will only drink a little. but we will persevere.

Also saw her Dietitian. She was pleased that Alana has now started to take her enzymes again. Even though it didn't seem to have a impact on her weight gain. She is still having issues with the solids, but the dietitian said just to keep doing what we are doing, as she is happy with her weight etc etc.

Anyway I figure that Alana doesn't have teeth yet, so she can only handle certain foods anyway as she doesn't have any pegs to chew with. Also she isn't crawling, so she wouldn't be burning of heaps of calories, so she wouldn't be as hungry.

Oh as for the crawling, again her paed didn't seem worried. He tried to stand her up, but Alana would have none of it. She refuses to put weight on them in a standing position. He thought it was very funny. He thinks we have a very strong minded bub. I was like NO ****!!!!!
