Info :
Current guidelines for paracetamol.

It is not advised to routinely give paracetamol before are straight after injections.
As it can mask any initial reaction to the immunisations by reducing any approaching fever.

However if fever is extremely high or baby is very irritable this is when it is advised that paracetamol is better given

Hope that helps people out

ok anyone want to swap bubbas??? i would jack has slept all of 2hours today!!!!
one VERY tired lil boy...he has just been bathed and DH is feeding him now..then he will be in bed..he was falling asleep just before in the car on the way home from nannys house...

[[M]umma[M]ia]

gee i WISH Mia slept 2 hours during the day...... IS he still on Farex Katones?? is he liking it? have you tried the pear and banana one???

Mia missed out on her 7:30pm feed, that what happens when ur screaming at mummy for 1.5 hours and fall asleep exhausted and mum decides not to bother ur cranky little bottom. So im hoping she will still sleep till 11pm when i get her up to feed.

its starting to near the time where we are starting our bubs on solids.. how exciting!!

HOllye are you waking her for a feed at 11?
Does she sleep through then?

i am putting off solids as long as i can lol...

PP - Mia goes to bes at 8pm every night, roll over feed at 11. see if i dont she does still sleep right through till 7am but from about 3 its tossing and turning etc. So 11 is when i usually go to bed and she hardly wakes for it and goes straight back down.

re solids - i have a feeling Mia will be on them about 5-5.5 months. she tries and grabs my food now the little piggy.

I'm most probably won't start solids until around 6mths as I did with Cody and even then he wasn't ready and started more like 7.5mths.

Hollye when you move up here I'll help with Mia if you need it .

Big to everyone who's AF has decided to return.

hugs xoxo

oh nice hollye!

SO any news on the brissy front?

Well i tried something new with ashley tonight. (from the tv show today lol).
We did our usual bedtime routine. Then i turned off the light and sat in the chair silently next to her bed, She climbed off once and i put her back telling her it is bed time. And in less then 10 minutes asleep!!!!!

No screaming, no crying nothing!

wow i hope it wasnt a fluke and actually will work each night. 10 minutes is better than 1.5 hrs screaming.

Anyhow solids, yep ethan isnt really interested. DH let him suck the juice from a grape the other night lol!!! I am a big fan of child lead feeding. so will probably do that with him. Did it with ashley too - let her lead on the chewing front. ie giving her a 1/2 banana rather than mushing it etc.

oh PP that's fabulous, I'm so happy for you!

Teru - thanks for the offer, must admit I hate doing our books, but I'm trying to get more organised... ... at the moment it's not even in a good enough state to get someone else to do it (which I toyed with last quarter...) one day I'll be more sorted, but until then

don't think we'll start solids till 6 months... X is showing no signs of being interested at all. I haven't yet started looking at BLS, but I'm very intrigued and plan to look into it more. We're doing a dream feed tonight - X was fussy today, feeding more frequently (then spewing it up lol), so given his last feed was 5.20pm! I love dream feeds when they work - they're just so adorable.
