Illeyena - Thanks for all the great finger food ideas! I give Freya banana, strawberries & other fruits (will have to try pineappe tho!) and steamed veg!
Freya is going well. Shes a good eater! has toast or weatbix for breaky, fruit for morning tea, whatever i have for lunch, then whatever i have for dinner...and everything else in between!! She still has a fair bit of formula aswell, 210mls morning, 150mls mid morning, 150mls mid arvo and 210mls again before bed. She goes thru about 3 sippy cups of water a day also. When are u supposed to start cutting back on the formula? Havent tried the egg yet, but she had a bit of carrot cake the other day before I realised it had walnuts in it...no reaction tho so thats good!!
Shes been crawling for about 2 weeks now....follows me everywhere! cant even hide so i can eat anymore lol! but its very cute!! She has 2 bottom teeth and just cut outside 2 top....so now she has vampire teeth She loves her sippy cup, lol she drags it along the floor with her! Im having a bit of trouble with nappy rash possibly from teething coz she was doing some horrible acidy pooes, and now it wont go away i give her lots of bare bum time, ive tried sudocrem, chemmart nappy stuff and nappy mate creams, but nome seeming to help. Its like it wont cover the raw bit and i put so much on! I just want it to heal, poor bub hates nappy change time, and she does like 4 pooes a day!!!
Appart from the nappy rash, were doing great! Glad we having some action in here!! its been quiet!
as my FB friends might have seen today Milly has finaly started sitting she has been horrible at the moment I think she is frustrated she cant do everything but she is such a mummys girls that I cant put her down
Jennie when DD1 had bad nappy rash I used Daktarin nappy cream...it was the only thing that cleared it.
Milly loves her food!!!! she wants everything, I still wizz up all her food but she is also happy with finger foods too. Mum fed her scrambled eggs the other morning whilst i wasnt watching so at least now I know shes fine with egg.
I cant belive how fast time is going!!! i said to DH today I wonder what cake Ill do for Millys birthday
I forgot to ask in my post is it okay for bubs to sleep on their tummys now??? everytime I check on DD shes fliped on her tummy with her lil bum in the air its so cute lol but scares me and then I have to put her back on her back without waking her!!
1. no news on allergies yet, still waiting on RCH so i am just being very careful and trying to mix it up with what we know she can eat.
Teagz - go Jackson... he's a little mover that boy and he's so damn cute, Z is standing up against things but hasn't quite figured out the moving part yet.
He is going to keep you on your toes for sure.
He will go with solids in his own time hun, i make sure there is an hr gab b/w milk feed and food, maybe try a milk arrowroot biscuit.. Z loves them, she also likes to spoon feed herself so i give her 1 mouthful she takes the spoon, i put something on it and she does it herself.
PO5 - GO MILLY... woo hoo
I know what you mean about the mummy's girl.. i don't think Z is going to be happy until she can crawl or walk.. it's either of those soon!
Jennie13 - go Freya she loves her food yeah, it's great isn't it, Z would eat a horse if i could let her. for crawling... clever girl.
Food wise i WISH i could offer Z a lot more, she would eat what we eat if she could.
At the moment she has toast or rice cereal for breakfast (stuck cos we can't introduce NEW foods), fruit for lunch, and tea is mince, carrot, brocolli, cauliflower, peas, corn, pumpkin and sweet potato mashed not pureed.. she seems to like the chunks and has no problem with the peas and corn.
I would love to try her on strawberry's etc so i am soooo annoyed with not being at RCH already, she also eats thinks like cruskits, milk arrowroot biscuits, she sucks on raw apple and pear and knaws into it with her 2 little teeth.
There is a thread on here about 100 BLS recipes, if anyone wants the link to the site please PM me.. one of the girls sent it to me so i will pass it on.. has some great ideas in there.
We are planning Ava's 2nd birthday for next month.. just over 2wks my little girl is nearly 2.. awwwww and Z is no longer a 'baby' it's kind of sad.
z, oh jacksons loves milk arrorroot bickies!! that's about the only thing you can bet he'll eat!!
jennie, jackson's been sleeping on his stomach since he was 4 months old. from birth he'd always have his naps on his belly during the day (when I could keep an eye on him) but i made him sleep on his back during the night until one night he cracked it and completely refused. I think the first week I barely slept for worrying about him. but, he won't sleep any other way. now she has control of her whole body i think it's fine! you cant keeping flipping her over for ever
re: jacksons food issues, yeah tried everything! he doesn't mind eating a bit of cucumber, but he doesn't really ingest a great deal of it, and if it's got cheese in it he'll give it a go... aah well, patience is the key. i made him some tuna mornay the other night... didn't like that either!
Eluned - your little darling sounds just like mine. Permanently attached to mummy. Either my leg or my breast!! I'm glad I'm not the only still doing at least one if not two night feeds. No wonder he's 9kgs!
I love that DS2 waves and claps if we do, and although his big brother is terribly mean to him sometimes, they do seem to adore each other and DS2 will crawl around the house loooking for DS1.
Eluned - yep hun i serisouly think i'm going to have a heart attack before i'm 27
Lil Amelia sounds so cute, isn't it great that they are exploring a bit more now, keep up the great work on the BFing.
Jenjams - awwww aren't the developmental milestones gorgeous.. i get so excited if Z does something new.. DP must think i'm nuts..
Lenny - DD1 has her days at the moment where she's being a bit funny with Z.. i think it's because she's on the move and is stalking her now.
They seem to really enjoy playing with the dora doll house together though and Z will follow A from room to room... but now A has figured out she can shut her own door and Z can't get in... lol
So glad to hear all the LO's are doing so well, has anyone started planning the first birthday parties?
I am thinking i might look at a dairy free cake for Z for the family dinner we normally do and getting a 'normal' cake for the day of her party and making her a little cupcake or something dairy free.
