Quick Q... DP just gave DD a slice or orange in her chewy net... She LOVED it.... can they have orange yet??? i came in from weeding the garden and she was chomping away on the net and had this HUGE orange stain on the front... I then saw DP eating some orange...
LMK- You poor thing... Your not having a good run with your health at the mo. Wish i could drop some weight sick or not... HEHE... Nothing is working... i need to boost up the excercise... Good to hear your ok now...
NaNa- With the baby led solids... What do you give DS??? I'm worried about chocking??? I use the chew net and she LOVES it... what type of things do you offer???
Also the CHN i saw was a bit pushy towards the Karitane place for my PROBLEM SLEEPER. she kept saying i should go there and stay the week and get it sorted out... Then she was like its up to you but i would... Then we talked about other stuff and she kept going back to it... when i left it was have a think about karitane...i think alot of the time you just have to ride it out and do what YOU feel is best.... I think your doing a GREAT job...
You should be proud of these things... and its great you have such great support.attachment parenting, extended breastfeeding, co-sleeping, baby-led weaning and everything else that classifies me as some kind of feral hippy in this society, but it's really the best way I know of being a parent.
Sass- could be teething or a combo of teething and formula change...
Bec- LOL at DH almost *****ting himself... My DP acts brave but i think he would have been scared with that too... I think he was just as scared knowing i was alone and someone could have been trying to get in or sussing the joint out... He was in the city 45 mins away...
with the food we've done pumpkin, sweet potato, potato, carrot, will try avo next... fruit wise we have tried watermelon, apple, pears, i gave her an apricot and pear swirl jar last week for morning solid, and this week was sultana fig and oatmeal. She loves everything except what i cook,..... go figure.
Also with the teeth... I saw like a cut 1st... looks like ita a bit darker line... then few days later we had the corner of the tooth...
i have friends who take there DS to the hospital for EVERYTHING... Not to the doctors but emergency... he gets a rash and its off to emergency... i mean i have no issue with taking sick kids to emergency but you need to know when to go to the doctors or hospital. She listened to the GP about BF and gave it up after 2 weeks. You need to listen to your gut instinct an take control of you parenting... I think alot of people rely too much on what others say and think. i mean every baby is different and you really needd to do whats right for you and your baby
While i'm on a rant... I feel bad for getting up a friend of mine... (well a wee bit) She so desperatly wanted a baby after several MC... I never ever have said anything to her about her views on Bottle feeding and her attitue towards BF... (she wont BF cos she doesnt like her nipples being touched) i accept her views and when i talk to her about difficulties all i get is you can try some of my formula. I'm not sure if anyone else does this but sorry it erks me... When her DS wakes at night she makes him a bottle abd gives it to him in his cot and goes back to sleep... She used to prop it up and told me today that "YAY my bottle holder arrived" she brought one of those stupid things that hold the bottle up for bubs... i think they are so dangerous... i mean ok fair enough if its day time and your near him but to go back to bed... if he started chocking then what... GRRRR.... it makes me mad... Again sorry if anyone does this... i just personally could never do it. she then aske me after she told me her news that she sent away for a free sample of formula from few laces to give to me... WTF...![]()




i think alot of the time you just have to ride it out and do what YOU feel is best.... I think your doing a GREAT job...
