Beany - I got given a thing called a Messy Mat that goes under the high chair. It's basically a square piece of transparent vinyl. It's been handy. I chuck it through the washing machine, or you can just hose it off. I've even used it under the potty on the carpet in the living room in the early days of toilet training with Craig It's Ryan's bottom right tooth that has come through. He's still pretty miserable even though it's cut through and feeding more frequently. Wonder Week?
Rose - Sorry to hear you've had such a rough time with Liam I hope upping the dose of his reflux meds does the trick. And tendonitis too At least you have nappy shopping to look forward to. Which ones are your faves? (saw the fb post about your site being hacked, lowlife scum, I hope you get it back up and running) I'm feeling sad about starting solids too.
Alison - Same here with the pizza (actually Turkish Pide, but just as bad). I tried to limit the number of pieces but I think the damage has been done. I can't remember if I've posted this before or not and I don't know if it will help, but each time I read about you rolling Amelia back over I think of this. I went to see the MACH nurse about Craig waking up several times a night crying, lying on his tummy. DH and I were rolling him over whenever we found him on his tummy, crying or not. She told me to stop turning him, because their necks are strong enough to turn their heads so they won't suffocate on their tummy. So I stopped turning him and he stopped crying at night to be turned. I've done the same with Ryan and he sleeps on his tum fine (just cries in the morning when it's time to get up).
Kawazuki - 1 week to SAHM! Yay! Don't worry, your supply should increase if you increase the breastfeeds. My experience was that my son fed less once we started solids, so it could be the solids affecting your supply. It's funny when they master rolling. Does Maree roll all the way to the wall and then get stuck because she doesn't know how to roll back?
AFM - The photo shoot went well. The boys were both well behaved and happy. Craig had a great time running all over the park and Ryan smiled the whole way through his tummy time on a rug in the grass. You wouldn't know from the lovely sunlight how bitterly cold it was!
Time for bed ladies. I'm going to have to burn off that Turkish Pide tomorrow!
