She hadn't eaten any solids for a few days, we didn't want to push her as she was sooo sick.
Yesterday I gave her some yogurt (just plain vanilla) and I put the first mouthful in her mouth and she broke into a massive smile and laughed and started kicking her legs around. I'd never seen her so excited!!!
I've tried giving her some sweet potato but she spews as soon as she tastes it. Tried it a few times now. What do you think it is? She just doesn't like it? Her favourite is broccoli.

I gave her a rusk today but its as big as her mouth!! She's only tiny!! She was happy just sitting and licking it tho.


Bahaha, I wish I could get groceries delivered. That would be soooo awesome!! But, living so rural, its not a possibility. Besides, from my back deck I can see the supermarket. hehe. We try not to shop there, as its not a great variety and it can be up to 3 dollars more PER ITEM than travelling to the bigger town which is 120kms away. You can easily get twice as much stuff in town for your money than you can here.

Anyway, the orginal question was -- Do you think that its wrong of us to not let Hannah be 'pass the parcel'? How do we let people know this without sound b!tchy? Cause people will get offended.
i havnt tried yoghurt on S yet, did Hannah like it?

we give S rusks she loves them, her co-ordination isnt great though!

$3 more per item far out!

and no way is it wrong to not play pass the parcel with hannah! we have this issue EVERY sunday night when we go to MIL's for dinner. summah has never been handled a lot, i was terrified id have a baby that relied on being held so we didnt hold her a lot.
so she is very happy to sit in her chair or play on the floor, etc....
sundays MIL wants to hold her like a newborn, then passes her round to SIL who then gives her to BIL who then hands her back because he knows we dont like it.
so now i refuse to hand S over until after dinner and after about 5 mins with MIL, DH takes her back for a break and then SIL will get a quick cuddle, but S generally screams because they get right in her face and talk in a stupidly high pitched voice!
but becasue BIL passes round S's cousin we look like the bad ones, care factor of 0 there coz it comes down to, my kid my choice!

Well i went to the drs again tonight (6th time now) and she's written a referral for me and said to see if i can get in tomorrow by some chance. She's given me till next week and if i can't get in before then i have to call the dr's and the nurse will try for me. The rash and itch has taken over the skin irritation on my bb for the moment. I am literally covered in spots and itching from head to toe now and going crazy. As well as that i am now suspecting that i may have a bit of thrush Probably from all the antibiotics and creams. My nipples are feeling a little *****ly. I have the medication here so i'm just going to take it and hope it helps. I'm so over myself right now

Talk soon ladies
hope the specialist can help!



AFU: all going well here, miss summah is a pleasure as usual.
god she loves her food, its unreal how she knows when it comes now and what u do with it! im about to start giving her a piece of banana, steamed carrot sticks etc for her to play around with to see how she goes, she will be fine it will be me having the coronary!
