    Lori - OMG at the possible pregnancy! If you are pregnant, it'll be a similar age gap to what I have now (hmm.. maybe a month or so closer). Just remember there's anohter 8 months until the baby would arrive.. the older baby changes a LOT in that time

    I'll join the solids giving bellyache at night club. It's the only thing I can think of. I even gave her nurofen last night thinking it's her teeth, but it did occur to me while she was screaming for over an hour this morning (3am!!) that it was probably the apple. Not sure what to do really. Tempted to drop the solids for a couple of days and see if it's that. But she's just got the hang of it and quite enjoys the whole process (eagerly opens her mouth for the food now).

    Why does it only give bellyache at night tho? She's happy as larry through the day & evening, but come early hours of morning, she's wriggling around in pain!

    I have the biggest bags under my eyes... need sleep!

    A girlfriend of mine is getting married in a couple of weeks and last night was supposed to be her girls night, but everyone bailed coz they're sick! So it was just 3 of us, and we ended up hanging out here. LOL. DH wasn't feeling great either, so he didn't go out (he was supposed to take Tallon with him) but he and Tallon managed to keep themselves amused in the office while us girls gorged ourselves on fruit dipped in a chocolate fondu. LOL. We watched 27 Dresses too. Very tame girls night! LOL.

    Well, I'm gonna cook up some vegies for Kayla today. Perhaps its just the apple upsetting her tummy. But then I remember having a couple of shocking weeks with Tallon around this age and having my eyes hanging out my head. This too shall pass.... but WHEN???? LOL *sigh*

    ETA: Actually, just did the math - the age gap would be quite a bit bigger that mine. Tallon was 19 mths when Kayla was born

    Good Luck with the veges.. I am starting to get really frustrated about solids.. Last night after many attempts I finally got Olivia to eat 2 tablespoons of vanilla custard and I hate giving her that. I would prefer she ate veges or something .. but i want her to eat as over the last couple days I have noticed if she eats more at night she actually does sleep better.. and water. if I give her water before her last booby feed at night she also sleeps longer...

    I am going now to try and get her to eat some veges for a mid morning snack..

    oh and I am cold.. it is overcast and cool today..

    liz - Ash was the same when i first gave him farex, i fed him breakfast and was fine during the day then at night he was screaming and kept lifting his knees up so i knew his tummy was hurting. i gave it a break for a while and he was fine starting again later on. i think theres no harm in giving them a break. Ive up'd the amount of custard i give him and hes a little squirmish but ok, ill start a different food on monday.

    Nic - is Olivia having breakfast, lunch and dinner now??? im unsure if i should do breakfast and lunch first or breakfast and dinner

    I laughed out loud in a HA kind of way when i read this.. We are lucky to get a tablespoon of food in ALL day!

    Today and yesterday i haven't bothered trying at morning time and i was going to do lunch today but though pfft so I am oin the proicess of steaming her veges now

    Now I am doing something different.. I completely forgot that I steamed the boys veges and here I am boiling Olivias.. Maybe thats why she won't eat them?? the boys didn't like thiers boiled either.. yes my kids are fussy.. no bulk foods made here. With all the boys it had to be made fresh or they wouldn't eat it so I am just doing the same for miss O..

    i have got dinner all cooked.. It is just in the oven staying warm.. I should post the recipe cus by golly its delish and its a huge hit with the family

    well the youngest precious one is requiring some attention so off to see if the veges are done..

    oh and yay Panadol alone worked today for isaacs dizzy spell (woo) Littl excited he didn't need a pill today

    just read your sig

    Well the "princess" has eaten around a tablespoon again.. this time I gave her Sweet tata, carrot (new) and Zuccini (new) and when she kept turning her nose up at that I got a jar of pear and nana.. she turned her nose up at that too but we got a tablespoon of it all up into her. she clamps her mouth shut tight.. i was naughty and tricked her tonight I waited for her lift her cup of water to her mouth and when her mouth opened I slipped in the spoon hehehe. yeh she wasn't impressed
