i had actually changed my mind and decided to wait til he hit the middle range of 10 kgs'... but DH, being the doting and excitable father that he is... chnage the seat forward facing while i wasn't around. He hasn't been in it yet... but I shall let you know how it goes.
Teagz - why is it men FINALLY get off their butts and do something right as we decide we don't want it done?
Illeyena - sent you a request on FB.
Well i am a little sad today, have realised that my last baby is no longer a baby and there will be now more. Z is sitting up on her own, drinking water from a sippy cup, playing with the bigger kids at the play centre yesterday and enjoyed the jumping castle
I love that she is doing a lot of things but she's not little anymore! i guess in a sense i am lucky she is such a clingy baby or i think i would be out of the picture very early!
Caroline had her check up on Friday and weighs 7.2kgs and is 65cm long so weaning from me has helped her chub up that's for sure!! she had her immunisation needles today ... man I hate those things. thankfully now she's clear for six months before having to have any more!!
She's been waking once a night hungry ... one health nurse says don't feed her or she'll make it a habit to wake up for food and another says it's the six month growth spurt which is pretty big. so who knows. I just feed her at the moment. she often wakes around 5am though and just CHATS REALLY LOUDLY to herself for about 30 - 40 minutes and then goes back to sleep!! however after listening to her for that long I am lying there awake wishing desperately for sleep! day sleeps are going great (touch wood) with an hour and a half in the morning (she wakes after 45minutes but puts herself back to sleep) and the same again in the afternoon - 2 hours if i'm lucky. here's hoping that's a new habit and not a regular fluke!
ZF... he ended up putting it back in backwards facing because he couldn't work it out haha! even then it took him two hours and we ended up having to call his sister over to help us! He was ready to chuck the seat out and said it was a peice of crap... it's a top of the line SnS!
He put it in our other car tho, a comodore - hate it and the seats are alot more sloped so it wasn't working right and he ended up having to put a rolled up towel under it to jack it up a bit. the windscreen in my car has a massive crack in it and apparently it's 30% of the roofs strength gone or something so I'm not allowed to drive it til it's fixed. Funny thing is I have no idea how I'm meant to get it fixed when I don't have a car seat in it to take it in to get fixed?
So... I can't wait to get it fixed. I love my big truck!
Hehe teagz you make me laugh.... could you get someone to come out and fix it, don't most window places come to you? Your FB makes me laugh too... lol not replying atm though as DP might see i've been on the comp WAY too much today... lol
Bah!! Don't you hate it when you make a post and forget to back it up and you LOSE IT!
Ok...
I have a situation. Last monday Jacks started solids and he was LOVING it. He was even lunging for the bowl inbetween mouth fulls, and now, for the last 4 or so days he HATES it. He won't open his mouth for anything, if I do manage to sneak a little bit of something in there he does this cough thing like you do when you taste something horrible, or he gags on it. This morning he even pushed the spoon away from himself with his hands. I have given him sweet potatoe (we started with this), pear, pumkin, rice cereal and rice cereal wih banana in it. I have tired it all mixed with breastmilk, water, at room temp, cold, warm, runny like gravy or like apple puree... nothing! I just can't get him back into it & I don't know why and it's driving me nuts.
Healthwise he is his normal happy little self, he has gotten his two bottom teeth in the last week but they haven't seemed to cause anything eventful. We've only had 2 bad nights in the last 2 weeks and occassionally he just needs a little panadol at night time before bed.
So, WWYD? Should I keep offering him different things until he finds something he likes, keep offering him the same stuff? Maybe only half a BF then offer slids then BF? Or just leave it for a few days and start all over again? I make all this pureed food and I'm literally just throwing it all straight back out again and it's driving me bonkers. I have a little boobaholic on my hands!!
Sorry for the rant..
...again!
Hi all we are good! DS2 went to MCHN for immunisations and wg on friday was 7950 grams so up 1070 grams in 8 weeks!!!
Not excited by solids at all gags and spits back of vomits!!\
Teagz DS1 was just like yours, he started on solids loved it for a week to 10 days then started refusing and pushing away, I kept offering for a week but still refused, MCHN suggested I dont offer anything for 2 weeks (remember food is fun until they are 1). When I re introduced he loved it and took to it like a machine!!!!
Both my boys are boobaholics!
