Jess: recomended by the nurse at baby clinic about a month ago. at the time i didnt want to do it but now she seems tobe going 4 hrs between bottles so i thought if i put her up a little she wont be missing anything. so now i am putting 180 water in so ill go up to 210.
we r doing 2/3 jar breaky 2/3rd lunch and then the 2 left overs for tea lol. She is still having her bottles so if she wants it them i am happy for her to have it.
Oh and we r not having much sleep during the day either. about 30mins at 1030 then 1hr at 3 then goes to bed anywhere between 730 and 830 and wakes between 530 and 7
i tried clicking on ur facebook link so i could add u but it went to mine. how do u i add/ find u lol. all this stuff is a bit technical for me.

well, so much for the lovely routine I had going... DS decided to WWF-smackdown wrestle at 4:30 this morning and wouldn't go back to sleep for an hour or so. I thought he'd made up for it by sleeping an extra hour to 8:05, but noooo.... he decided to skip his morning sleep! Around 12 he finally went to sleep while feeding so I put him in his cot and 20 minutes later he's blowing raspberries and squealing with delight at the ceiling (or does he see something I don't??). He went a bit nuts after that and was writhing and squirming all over the place and would cry if I put him down even though I couldn't hold onto him! Plonked him in the pram and went for a loooong walk, and he was calm and quiet but would not sleep. Finally got him to sleep at 3, but only after I gave him a dose of homeopathics AND panadol coz his top gums are all swollen and he was screaming if I tried to touch them. I think the teeth are just going to hit us one after another... which is going to be a tonne of fun!
Mis_tree - so good you got things sorted! I hope it's worked out for you the way you wanted. How's Stanky??
Sass - that does seem like a lot of food, but you know your baby best, and if she's ok with it then that's fine. Do you cook anything for her yourself, or do you just use the bottled stuff? Good luck with the routine. Mine's screwed...
Jess - nah, I'm in Melbourne. And I'm not allowed on ebay on my own... I'm norty... I'll leave it to my mum, she's the ebay queen in my family. She can find me an overlocker, tho she'd probably get so sidetracked and end up with another red leather sofa like she did last time she went to get my sewing machine!! Oh, BTW you need to remove the hidden link in your ticker. There's a message about it in the Belly Belly messages thread, but you just need to delete the [url] bits... ticker shack are the main culprits for that.
Better go finish all the stuff I didn't get done this morning... but I'm too tired to make cakes!
WOW its good to see I am not the only one who has turned their bubs around in the car, I thought we were doing it early.
Liam is on 3 full jars of food day and 5 BF. He is a big boy though. He is sleeping thru night, last feed 10-11pm then nothing till 7am. This is excellent for me now as it works out he feeds just before I leave for work.
We went out for lunch today with 2 of our friends and their babies similar age to Liam. It was really nice and all 4 boys (including Jordan) were so well behaved, you wouldnt have known they were there.
Hope you all get a good night sleep tonight
XX
WOW at Liam having 3 jars of food... I thought baby food was just to get bubs to start to get the feel and taste... Am i suposed to be giving them as a full meal??? i though it wasnt until 12 months that you do that... Should i up the solids or is BM still the best???
Chatted to Sarah on FB... Juliettes needles went well she now weighs in at 9 kgs... everything is going well...
Deancy- glad the boys were behaved.
NaNa- OH bugger i was going to say we could meet up and i could lend you the machine... bugger... what is the hidden link?? how do i delete it??? I know what you mean about ebay... was bad but have controll now... hehe
best be off... kids are now in bed and i'm going to watch criminal minds then off to bed... nite... lets hope we have a good night
Jess: fb still goes to mine. CAN someone else click on it and see if it works PLEASE!!!! lol. I think witht he food jess aslong as ur not replacing there bottles it is fine if they eat heaps. it woudl be dif if i was dropping one of her bottles and replacing it with the jar. i mean i have dropped a bottle but i have put all the others up so it is the same amount anyways.
Deancey: so glad i am not the only one giving so much food. i was gettin worried yesterday. ther isnt much useful info abotu it all. i mean lots of places say just a tea spoon to start with but dont tell u roughly wat age they shoudl be having wat.
I am lookin for when u start dropping bottles for food. I am guessing 12 months but at baby clinic she said to have jayda to 4 bottles @ 6 months 3 @ 9 months and 2 @12 months. i cant make any more in her bottle so i am guessing by 9month i will be only be doing 3 bottles and main meals?
Where is that baby instruction manual when u need it, i think i left mine at the hosp lol.
Sass - i clicked jess facebook and yes it goes to my page, now i want someone to check if mine is right? lol
We had a night from hell last night, Couldnt settle hamish until 11.30 and he woke every 2 hours screaming uncontrollably and would not take dummy or even feed. He has never been like this so i was not prepared and today i am exhausted. He had his immunisations yesterday and i assumed it was the after affects of them but seemed more like teething as he would not let me touch his mouth and screamed when i tried to give him the dummy or offer a feed. He is ok today but still not his happy self. \
With the feeding we have 5 bf a day and 2 solid feeds, farex and fruit in morning about 2 tbsp farex and same of fruit, and about 4 0r 5 tbsp of vegetables in afternoon, not sure how much that would be in a jar.
We are going to turn car seat around this weekend as Hamish trys to sit up all the time in the car now. I have changed his pram from bassinett to stroller now but still have him facing me most of the time.
I'll leave it to my mum, she's the ebay queen in my family. She can find me an overlocker, tho she'd probably get so sidetracked and end up with another red leather sofa like she did last time she went to get my sewing machine!!
