MCHN came and Kieran had put on 90g in 3 days which is great! She said 20g + per day is good, so I'm glad the porker is putting on 30g a day. I told her that he is pretty unsettled after a feed and she suggested that we try Infacol to help his digestive system and bring up burps. I said that the box said not to use it until 1 month of age, but she said you can use it from 4 days onwards. I have just sent DH out to buy some now! She also showed me a great settling technique to get him to sleep which I'd actually worked out for myself earlier today, but it was great to see an expert do it and it actually worked. He cried for less than a minute and hasn't woken up since! I am hoping it works for me tonight so I don't have to bring him in to bed with me.

Tiff - Tiera sounds like a great night sleeper!

rallybbek - I take my hat off to you having two other children to care for. I'm finding one older child difficult to deal with!

Nic - Can't believe you haven't heard from your MCHN! Is it just a busy time for them ATM?

Kim - Does Jasmine feed if you wake her up for daytime feeds? I wake Kieran after 3 hours if he doesn't wake up during the day (probably sounds cruel of me!). I did this with Joel too and he started sleeping through the night pretty quickly, by 5.5 weeks he slept 8 hours through the night. I really hope Kieran does the same thing! I know not all parents are happy to do this though so please disregard my comments if it doesn't suit you guys

Becky - Glad to hear your DS is calming down too! It gives you hope doesn't it?
