tried Ty with some farex today. wasnt very keen on it! he would have been lucky to have 1/2 teaspoon he was screwing his face up, quiet funny actually! dont blame him for not liking it, pretty bland. might leave it for another few days or so before trying again

Morning everyone!
Had another good night with K, he slept all the way through until 5am without waking once, hooray! He doesn't really go back to sleep afterwards though which is a pain. We got up at 6:30am after a few attempts of getting him back to sleep. I prefer that to waking up 7 times a night though!! The rice cereal in the evenings really helps him through, I didn't give him any the night before last and he woke at 3:50am hungry, whereas when he does have the cereal he wakes at around 5am. He loves his rice cereal, he's such a guts and gulps it all down!
Nic - I completely forgot to say congratulations on buying a house!!! How exciting! At least you won't have to move again for a while now! Re: the Farex, I make it runnier than the box suggests. I read somewhere that babies at the start prefer their cereal to be the consistency of thickened cream. K prefers it that way rather than lumpy. Keep trying Tyron, he'll like it eventually. If he doesn't like Farex though, you could try the Rafferty's one, K really likes it.
Amber - Did you notice BB are using your avatar for advertising? You're just too gorgeous! How clever that Myles is pulling himself up! You'll have to start watching where you put things now!
Saffi - That's great you have decided to go off the meds, now you will have more time to yourself! How did L go at the weigh in?
Hi Becky! Good to see you in here, make sure you pop back in soon!
Have a great day everyone!

oh i meant to say last night amber wow at Myles crawling & pulling himself up, what a little go getter hehe.
raffertys will look out for it.
does anyone know what the difference with the farex for ages groups are?
I bought the "from 4 months one" a while ago and thats what i gave him.
however there is a 6months on one and he is just about 6months.
Trish yeah i kept making it more runnier, the amount of ebm,water etc they say to use is no where near soft enough for first timers lol.

Nic - our paed said that if he wasn't keen on the rice cereal or if I just wanted to skip it I could go straight to vegies (single to start with ie not mixed together in case of reactions, which I'm sure you already know from Nixon). I'm gonig to try L on the rice cereal first but if he doesn't rate it, will go to vegies.
Trish - very jealous of that sleep!! Ahhhh, maybe one day it will happen here....

Warning- over tired, emotional mother on-line!
Nickers- congrats on house! I think the 4 mths farex package is just the older packaging. They are changing all the 'from 4 mths' to 'from 6mths' due the the new recommendation of exclusive BF/FF for 6 months. Pretty sure it is the same stuff.
Trish- Woot on the sleeping.
Me? Blergh. Lu has had temp for 2 days, peaked at 39.9 last night. Grizzly, sad, wont be put down. Has been BF'ing 2hrly for 48hrs. My nips hurt. Saw doc this am, just a virus and he told me to keep feeding her 2 hourly if she wants it to keep her hydrated. Can't wait till this bug is over, i will never whinge about her waking once or twice in the night again.....
So hanging out on the couch with dr phil today.....

Hi Everyone,
Hope you are all doing well.
Sorry about the last time I was in. Big whinge fest but I am over it now.
Ethan has slept from 10.30 to 6 the last 2 nights which is good. I am really looking forward to droping the late night feed so I can get even more sleep. Yay.
Ethan is taking solids well now. He didn't like farex at all so I have been giving him vegies (which he loves). Last week the nurse told me that he needed farex for the iron and to mix it with his vegies. He noticed but now he takes it with pear or apple. The last two days he has had 2 meals a day. Fruit and farex in the morning and vegies at night so maybe that is why he is sleeping well. This morning he was a real guts and ate about 4 teaspoons of breaky but then didn't want much of his bottle. Can anyone tell me does it matter how much they drink now or should I just chill out and let him have what he wants? First timmer so not sure. Also how much solids should they have?
Anyway I'd better go as Ethan thinks that daddy's xbox is a great toy. I put him at the other side of the room but he just rolls until he gets to what he wants.
Talk to you all later.
