hey becka thanks for your reply, 183 is good weigh in result i think congrats, G hs been eating laods of different things i havnt really tried much of lots of things, keeping with one thing for many days at a time to wait and see a reaction and then it turns out to be his fav so refuses other things......
for part of it its still pushed out other bits straight back and down yet i know he wants it as he enjoys he bits he does have and the tatse plus he takes everything from my plate.

question for cloth bummed using mums, why have u chosen this.... Is it like well breast feeding is so time consuming and hard at times but i want to do it and push myself through any of those barriers and feel proud caus ei know its best, same as cloth its time consuming but i know its best and i know ill be proud of my self at the end of the day? i dunno sorry if i offend anyone.... just wondering if at all that comes into your mind along with the fact that better to be more pure on babies bum that chemical made things

how many ml's of fomrula are u all giving dailey we on 1250 ml???.

i am suprised that so many of you are trying avo we havnt and to tell ya the truth prolly wont till he is 3 as hubbie is alergic to it. but i have heard of other ppl beeing alergic to it, Good on ya babies loving it tho i wish all my kids would eat it. only 1 child eats avo. Prolly as i dont. josh hastarted with this need i wnat u now scream and stops as soon as ya pick him up the cheaky beautiful bom. its very loud!!. especially at 2 and 4 am.

well i gotta scoot right now thanks again becka i love that top ur partner saw its cut that would be a another goodie hehehe.

Squidipa - I use cloth full time on both of mine and don't think its too much hassle or extra work. Its one load every 2 days, and I put them on the line when the kids go to bed, and then 2 days later, take them off,hang up the newly washed ones.

If I could do it AND work 3 days a wek - I think anyone can.

Just thought I'd pop in quickly and say
Everything is fine here now it's not so hot! The poo drought was broken yesterday and it was fine, not even a nappy explosion. Thanks for the tips on constipation, I ended up using prune juice to mash up her fruit and not sure if that did it or not but I've got it now just in case.
A quick question probably for you Vic, how did N go with her six months needles? I found the four month ones really knocked Beth around, so hoping the six months ones don't do the same, I feel like we've only just recovered from the four months ones!
Big to Squiddy, Beck, Mel, sash, rach and MT sorry for being slack on the personals but a bit fuzz brained today!

Squid, its good to wait a few days between trying new things, G had already had avo to taste about 5 times with no reaction, same with sweet potato so when she had something new for a few days i would follow with those as i knew she had no reaction to them, probably not the way to do it, but we havent had any reation yet and no allergies that run in the family, not going crazy though, just retrying the things we had already had now. Avo was the first thing we tried, mainly as i eat it quite a bit and she would just take it from my plate!! lol

Pixie, we have our injections next week!! big hugs to both our bubs for that day!! think i hate it more than she does though!

It has been SO hot today,just impossible to get her to sleep, woke up at 5.30 and JUST got her down at 2pm but had to lay with her and feed her to sleep on our bed under the fan!!! she is sleeping now!

oooo...i stzand corrected...she is awake, gotta run. hi to all

Hi everyone,

Happy Australia Day!!

Squidipa - it's weigh in day for us tomorrow too - first one in six weeks so it's gonna be interesting! My guess is that Kye is around 10.2kg total now any more than that and I'll think hit the floor. I'm acutally looking forward to getting back to being able to track his weekly gains again. I'm finally at the stage where I am feeling good about his 'routine' and he has cut back the amount of formula he is drinking quite considerably. I guess it's because he has increased his amounts of solids at each meal - breaky usually has 2-3 tablespoons, lunch is usually 3 or 4 tablespoons and dinner is usually 2 or 3 tablespoons. Based on those amounts I guess he is getting enough LOL He has gone back to sleeping through and not doing the wake ups at 8:30 and 9:10pm which is great I was starting to lose the plot there for a while haha

Beck - I'm thinking of giving Kye avocado today for lunch. I put a bit of mashed banana in with his pear and apple this morning, he was a bit unsure about the diiferent flavour I think. He loves pear so much so his look on his face was like 'this is not what I usually get' hehe

Good to hear G is enjoying her solids. I might give Apricots a go aswell - I looked at them the other day when I was in the fruit shop but wasnt sure whether they would mush up? Did you have any dramas, how did you cook em? Did you take the skin off?

Anyways will leave it there, have to jump in the shower .... the boy is due to wake up very soon!

Hope everyone has an excellent day!
