    We tried banana for first food last night - ds2 had fun chasing it around the high chair's table; eventually got it up to his mouth and some in; had a bit of a gag afterwards but not too bad. Next time we do banana I'll leave a strip of skin on for handling purposes as it got a bit slippery for ds. We do baby led solids (bls) as I don't have the patience for puréed foods. We did bls with ds1 too and he's a good eater and I didn't get too much food mess on the floor so we're going that route again.

    We're coming off a couple bad colds for ds2 (and 2 bouts of tonsillitis for me) where he'd have to sleep on his tummy to drain the snot so he didn't chuck phlegm so much or cough. Still likes sleeping on his tummy now. He's also rolling over fairly quickly if you put him down the wrong way for how he wants to be likes to try sitting up too and loves his rocker car that he can sit up and play with the activity stuff on the top. He's also getting frustrated that he can't move yet - hadn't worked out he needs to lift tummy to crawl

    Babies Born ~ April 2012 #1

    Hi guys, we are going well. Emily has just started sleeping at night woo hoo. It has only taken 6 months! She is eating veges, fruit, vegemite on bread and yoghurt and loving it. She is sitting up really well now, almost on her own. She doesn't do tummy time well due to reflux so I think crawling will be a way off yet, she is whizzing around in her walker though.
    Wow Becky I can't believe Ellie is talking already, Em doesn't gabble much and Ellie almost crawling, that's great.
    Sorry to hear of your sickness Leckert, hopefully the warmer weather will help you guys.
    Hope your all getting some rest!

    Hello all, it's been ages since anyone has commented here so I'm hoping your all going great and enjoying your bubba's. Emily has finally started having two solid (1.5-2 hr) sleeps per day yahoo. She is sleeping from 7pm to 5:30-6am and wakes only usually once for the dummy in this time. I'm super pleased she is settling. Her reflux has settled too, I am slowly reducing her meds and I think I have her eczema sorted too. Gee these little ones take some getting to know hey!
    Anyway better get back to finger painting with Sarah, hope your all well. Take care Renate

    I find it too hard to search for threads on my phone which is how I'm accessing bb most often lately
    Wade's worked out how to sit up by himself and can sort of move around - rolls and wiggles but hasn't worked out crawling forward yet. He's popped his first tooth through as well

    Hi! How are you all? Haven't been on here for a while! Ellie is doing well! She is crawling around everywhere now and is getting her second tooth at the moment so alot of wakes during the night but settles ok which is good so I can't wait to get back to her only waking once during the night.

    Crowe - I am so glad Emily is sleeping well for you, I still have Ellie only having 2 short sleeps a day oh well hopefully she will improve. Happy to also hear about her reflux, you must be over the moon, would have been so hard for you.

    Leckert - Yay Wade for sitting up clever boy, crawling won't be far away! How was he with his first tooth coming through? I found Ellie not too bad with her first tooth but her second which has just come through has been worse which is strange.

    Question for all - How many bottles or feeds a day do you give bubs? I give Ellie a bottle in morning about 7am then breakfast at 8am then bottle at 11am then lunch at 12noon then bottle at 3pm then dinner at 5pm then bottle at 7pm so all together 4 bottles and breastfeed if she wakes at night (nearly weaned yay!).

    Anyway hope your all doing well. Talk soon

    Going well here - bit mad this time of year - end of school year for me (teacher librarian) and usual Christmas madness.
    Wade's crawling all over the place; can barely keep up with him at times and is also pulling himself up to standing already.

    Hi, sorry I haven't responded sooner. Emily is going pretty good. Not crawling yet but wriggling around very frustrated. She is having three bottles a day, three meals and two snacks. She had a reaction to egg the other day. I have just got home from allergy specialist today and it seems she is allergic to eggs and peanuts!!! Oh man such a lot to get my head around. Hope your all well- merry Xmas'
