Hi all,

long time no post.

I have only skimed over some bits and pieces

V, We are still BF, I hope to continue to around the 12 month mark. But It is quite a juggle expressing at work.
Solids, we are on a combination of different foods, and trying lots fast. I've basically gone no holds bared except for the known allergens, as we don't have any food allergies.
He loves Rockmelon, it's not too soft, not too firm, nice and cold on the gums, and has flavor.
He hasn't been sleeping through the night, but it has been getting better. Yet we do use a lot of infants friend. which as well as helping with wind, I believe is supposed to help with teething.

Nicki, you said you had to express every 5 hours. Xavier only feeds about every 5 hours now, so maybe Lach is just cutting back.

Brief update on where we are.
Sleep this week has been etter, we are finally getting more than 2 hours at any one time. Xave is eating lots, but being a little fussy about it.
MCHN said we could use real milk on foods like cereal. So we have switched to that on weetbix and we've tried oats this morning. he hates farex.
I've asked creche to introoduce some sancks so he's getting arvo tea now, which I think is helping his sleep. He is always tired when he gets home, so I don't think he was eating enough, and the poor sleep was from being in a perpetual cycle of no sleep means fussy eating, and being hungry meant no sleep.

Well best be off,
