Wow Brooke, I can't believe that Maya is doing all that! She's very advanced indeed!!
Coby is on three meals a day and has been for about a month now, he just wasn't putting on the weight because of his vomitting (Kate I know you know what Im talking about here...). He is trying hard to talk and crawl but it won't be happening for a while yet, I can tell. His teeth are still trying to break through, isn't it awful.
Kate - IKWYM about the smelling like spew, isn't it just lovely. My hubby came home a while ago and I said to him, can you smell my new perfume - and he put his nose up to my neck to smell, and he said (with nose screwed up) what is it? My response - Au de vomi` :smt016
My whole house is covered in vomit, including me, the dog and the cats. It stinks!! We are going to the paediatrician on Thursday (a new one) who's supposed to be the "guru" when it comes to reflux so hopefully he can give me something to stop the vomitting. Coby has never had pain with the vomitting but oh my god, he vomits sooooo much, its soooo annoying!! He's on Zantac and it hasn't stopped the vomitting either - I thought it was supposed to???
Hay and Deb - Coby has been on 4 bottles a day for 2 months or more, they are supposed to be having at least 800mls per day at this stage, so if that means they can have 4 bottles and finish them all, then great. I think in a few more months (say at 9 months) you can drop back to 3 bottles a day (along with their three meals a day). But if they are only having say 160ml per feed, then you will have to up their bottles and still give 5 a day, but the general rule is about 800mls per day at this stage (ps - that includes the liquids they get from their food too - but I don't incorporate that because you don't know what liquids they are getting from their foods really).
Sorry for lack of personals, trying to get out to go for a walk (losing some kgs)[/img]
