Hi all,

I really need to start checking in here more often so that there is not so many posts to read and catch up on! Sounds like everyones bubbas are doing so well. Must be cos we are all such good mummies Chase is going along steadily. He is down to 4 hourly feeds (occasionally 3 hourly depending on his mood!) and sleeping from 7pm-4:30am most nights. Fingers crossed he keeps it up! Day sleeps have improved a little since I changed his feeds as well which is great! We started going to playgroup this week and there are 6 babies all born around the same time as Chase (2 weeks either side) which is nice.

lissy- Hi! Can't wait to hear all about your little one

bskilner- William sounds like he is growing like a champ! And an eye tooth. Did it bother him when it came through? Stupid question but I really have no idea- what is the 'usual' age they start getting teeth?? How did he go with his cold? DH has one at the moment and Im just waiting for it to travel through the house..

berrme- is a little tough cutting out the foods (especially chocolate!). We first thought he had reflux as he would scream and vomit continuously after and during every feed. We tried Gaviscon etc with not much success so I took him to a natuopath and got them to do alergy testing on him (not the proper allergy testing they do at the docs) and all of those things came up. I cut things out of my diet and noticed an improvement straight away. Have slowly been able to reintroduce a little bit of dairy (skim milk in a coffee once a day) and he seems ok. As soon as I eat any more dairy or eggs, soy etc we have a horrible time! We are going to get him allergy tested when he is older. Have nearly given up BF a couple of times because of it but glad I have stuck with it.

What age is everyone going to start introducing solids? I know a lot of ppl start at 4 months but most of the mums in my mums and bubs group are waiting until 6 months??

Anyway hope you're all doing well and enjoying some warm weather wherever you are. Looking forward to hearing how you're all going
