Shell, I need to try giving Jazz water too. She hasn't taken it. I put it in a bottle for her and she grabs the bottle thinking it's formula and doesn't like it when it's just water that comes out. I'll have to keep trying and get the daycare lady to try.
Hi girls. Sorry I haven't posted for ages but I have been dropping in to keep up with you all.
Paddy is going great. He's not crawling forward yet but it's hilarious watching him try to work it out. He loves the jolly jumper and goes nuts when he's in it. I took a video but don't think I can load it on BB. I've been a bit slack and haven't had his 8mth check yet. I hate having to do appointments! On my measurements he's 10kgs 73cm. I don't have any trouble getting him to eat his solids! He's not sleeping as well now that he can move around easily. I'm hoping he start self settling again once he's able to crawl. He's learning so many different things at the moment he just wants to be into everything. Still can't get rid of his excema. It seems to get better as the wather gets warmer. Does this happen with anyone else?
Shell I've been offering water for a couple of months and had to try a couple of sippy cups to find ones that he likes. I'm still bfing so he doesn't need a lot but is starting to drink more.
Bron glad to hear your meds a finally happening. I think I need a steroid rush here!
Teach - So good to hear from you MJ is not self settling much anymore, she has been properly crawling for about 8 days now, although she is sleeping a bit better.
As for the ezcema, i find that it is worse in the heat, although MJ is not suffering badly from it.
Lily - welcome to the group, feel free to ask away to us all... as Bron says, its all or nothing here at times
RE - Water , CMHN told me to try and get MJ to drink from a cup or a medicine cup as its easier for them to swallow. I dont realy need to be giving her any water either due to BF, but would like her to start taking some so that she will use to it in the heat of summer (although the BM should adjust too)
MJ is 7.9kg and 70cm long on last check which was last week
Bron, bugger about the cannula's and then your vein blowing what a bummer, will they consider something more long term JIC? even a PICC??? PSML on the sterioid rush, could do with one here too at times
