Claire - re the teats - my little one is still on number 1 Avent teats. anything higher and she gets too much too quickly. i think it all depends on bub but my only suggestion is to start on the 1's and if he struggles with it - go up one.
well we changed caitlyn's formula over the weekend to see if that would help her sleep a bit more and make it easier to settle her in the evening. the only thing that has changed is the colour of her poo!!! its gine from a mustardy yellow to khaki!! mum says that it indicates wind - has anyone else heard of this? other than that - her clingy-ness has returned in full force!! but we are down to 2 feeds at night. i wonder if i am letting her sleep too much during the day so that she doesnt sleep well at night.
sorry for all the typos - she wont stay out of my arms!!
