We have decided to take solids off the table for a week - literally for Zander. Since he has started he hasnt been overly interested so only had maybe a tsp per time max - and every night he goes to sleep fine, but thenfor the next 2/3 hours - he cries out every 20 - 30 minutes and we pick him up he feels comforted and is fine to go back into the cot - I think he has tummy pains - he hasn't poo'd since Friday which is not like him every day - so thinking the iron in the rice cereal etc is playing with his tummy.
Will see what happens for the next couple of days. Have tried massage, deep warm baths, drinking warm water, infacol - so will see what nature brings the next 2 days and if nothing will get some professional advice. No comments about b/f babies and 10 days please girls, cos Zander poo'd every day so out of character for him.
amy - have a great time in Sydney - you are very lucky to still have your mum to look after you
katones - did you chat to DH to find out what he is actually concerned about with Jack in his own room?
amanda - yes, at times I will zander not to grow up too fast - and then other times I cant wait to get over what phase he is going through lol. He looks so big now, and I too cant believe he will be 6 months next week!
tanya - glad to hear nothing is wrong - so hard to get wee samples from little girls too!! who knows, she might have a uti - something simple as that! My letdowns are ok again (again I think it was stress like you!!) and supply, well, i just figure if Zander was still hungry he would cry or not sleep or want to feed more than he does - same for maya?
So now I will try to continue b/f until he is over this poo issue and introduce solids again.
belfie - whats going on with you - how is mr x's grumbles???
I am so out of ideas of what to have for dinner with kids too - i am feeling slightly over it already today. I am sick of making food that Giselle will only pick at - but today is child care day and she has a cooked lunch so for dinner if she has a sandwich i just dont care.
