I was wondering about the formula thing too... Charlie is breastfed, but I didn't know whether I should move from b/m to formula or straight to cow's milk... so many questions! I intend to feed him until he's about 18 months or maybe even 2 - I'll just see. I really love feeding him, so I'll probably put it off as long as I can!

Sorry you have had a migrane and been busy, Christy. Hope you feel better soon.

And sorry that Mitch has been sick, Lulu. It's terrible when that happens - you feel so helpless. What does the doctor say is up with him? Has he had gastro for a while? Poor little guy.

Went shopping today with my best mate. Charlie, who is usually wonderful when we shop, had very sore teeth and was grizzly for most of the day, poor fella. So it was a bit stressful - luckily my friend (who is childless) was very understanding... I've had problems with childless friends in the past when Charlie's had a 'bad' day. Has anyone else had problems like that?

On a positive note, Charlie has been standing, unaided, for up to 5 seconds at a time! And he even took a few steps yesterday. I'm so proud of him... he can't talk yet, but he sure can move! I think it will be battlestations before he's one - he'll be running all over the place. I hope DH isn't away when he starts walking properly - he'd be disappointed to miss that.

Anyway, so much to do, so little time, so much time spent procrastinating! Hope you're all well.

BTW, hi again Mitch! Hope Jess is well, and that you enjoyed your lunch.
