Thanks girls!! I knew I could count on your sanity!!
Det I didn't even check the charts!! - She told me he had stuck to the 50th% for height. I just checked then and at 9.06kg he is still between the 10th and 25th%. (closer to the 10th). He was born around the 75th% and has had a couple of dips which worried them but for the last 6 months he has been following his own curve. He hasn't thinned down cause he was always pretty skinny I guess but he's not getting skinnier ITMS? I'm not worried at all about him cause he is happy and healthy and active etc. DP was a really skinny kid. I'm just a bit frustrated that this bloody weight issue won't die!! She wants to see him again in a couple of months "just to check his weight" rather than wait until 15 months. She's good in other respects and didn't harp on about his food or anything. I told her he eats what we do and she was happy with that. Will see how I feel about taking him back when I'm back at work. Might not have time

Shell - Have you tried mince? DS doesn't have trouble with strips of meat (chicken is easier to bite off I reckon) but we also give him mince in spag bol, shepherd's pie, pasta bakes etc. Generally I try and spoon feed that but he will use his fingers too. Casseroles (with slightly higher qual steak than usual) also go down pretty well.

Ali - YAY on DD not crying yestedday. DS has been fine so far but started to whinge when he saw me going this morning He's working it out I think. hahaha!! I have to laugh about your comment on my weight loss - it's been the same for the past month Lost my mojo and struggling to get it back. I think going back to work will be good for me in that respect. There's too much temptation when I'm at home all day.

Busy few days coming up here. My parents are turning up today to stay overnight and then PiL are coming Fri-Sun. I'm out on Fri night then we're having my mum's group b'day party on Sat and we're out on Sun too.
