i'll have to try one. i've tried avo and banana and he wasn't keen on that... i haven't given him an arrowroot just by itself tho.. i usually mush it up with some water
is it just normal crusket? or is there a baby version?
I just buy the normal light one, i am normally really fussy about the amount of sugar and sodium in foods for the girls.. the sodium is higher in a cruskit but is very low in sugar.
Z is lucky to have 1 cruskit a day or every 2nd/3rd day so i am not overly fussed.. she can't eat much else at the moment so gotta keep her happy.
gggrrr just wrote a post and then hit something by accident and lost the lot, will have to come back later and rewrite it as the little munchkin is up now.
Hello everyone, how are we all, how are those gorgeous LO's going?
It's been a while so a quick update:
1. We got Z's allergy testing done - DAIRY ALLERGY confirmed and was borderline for eggs & nuts , but atleast we know now and we have been avoiding anything with dairy, no milk solids or anything in pre-cooked foods or biscuits etc.
She has also since had a reaction to banana so added that to the NO GO list.
She has to go back in a couple of months for re-testing, we carry an epi-pen with us everywhere we go and i have just bought stickers for her when we go to public parties etc that say I AM ALLERGIC PLEASE DO NOT FEED ME in bright red with a NO DAIRY symbol.
I am so glad i have BB to call no for recipes etc as i think she is wanting to start eating a lot more.
2. A turned 2 this month, she had a great party and she has been sharing all her new things with Z, she pushes her around in the car and plays blocks with her.. it's so cute.
3. Was meant to get Z weighed last wk but had to miss the appt, get her done on the 28th now but a couple of weeks back she wore a dress that Ava wore for her 2nd x-mas at 14mths old
She's still not crawling but is pulling herself up on things and just wants to stand at all the toys, she has gotten from sitting to on her knees and rocks so hopefully she's not far off. I am going to put her behind A's old walker bike and see how she goes, she might just get up and walk .. A didn't crawl til 10mths old so i'm not worried.
She loves her food, at the moment chicken, mince, veg she loves pears she eats half a pear (not cooked) for breakfast with some toast, today she had a crumpet and she thought that was great, she loves rice cakes and i found dairy free little teddy bear biscuits for her.
I am going to try avocado again soon so she can have avocado on her rice cakes.
So how is everyone else going, all growing well i'm sure...
Zarava - good you have the allergy testing all behind you for now. dairy free is easier to manage these days with lots of alternatives! bummer re; the bananas! sob sob
C is crawling around everywhere and pulls herself up. She started off slow, a bit like a Sunday driver hehe but is now super fast (especiallyl when I catch her near something she shouldn't, she speeds up to get to it before I get to her giggling away ).
I offered her some weetbix this morning (the kids one) but she was not interested at all so vegemite on toast it was. I've been giving her her meat/veges for lunch and fruit/yoghurt for dinner because she's usually SO tired by late afternoon that she takes that much easier so that's working well. She has her two bottom teeth and one top tooth that's broken through but taking forever to come through entirely. She seems to cope well though with it all so that's good
She's SO vocal and NOISY, no words really (it does sound like she says UP though, she has said Mum and Dadada in the past but stopped those awhile ago so possibly were flukes!) she waves bye bye now so that's cute.
times flying - before long we'll be having first birthdays!!!
Z is pulling herself up on things and was 'bath surfing' last night, holding the edge and walking around, she will also walk with me holding her hands.. maybe she's going to skip crawling?
She goes from sitting to on her knees and is somehow getting around by shuffling everywhere but it's not at pace and she's still very frustrated... i wish she'd just crawl already...
A didn't crawl til 10mths so no idea why i'm so impatient this time round.. pmsl.
Good morning everyone. It's been awhile since I have been in here....
Well DD2 is now finally doing her own way of getting around. It is a perculiar comando crawl. She sort of drags herself around the floor with one arm and leg. She is sort of getting onto her knees but at least she is not as frustrated by being mobile now. We still only have two teeth. I reckon in the last week she has had a developmental change. She now has a few more facial expressions and can wave etc. She is a chatterbox who will say bubba and dadda regularly and also has started to mimic our sounds too. I guess thats all here!
Phew - i'm actually relieved to hear that some of the bigger kids are a bit cheeky and rough with the little ones. I thought it was just mine!
minny, DS2 is awake at least twice at night. He sleeps from about 7.30 until 6 (when the house gets noisey) and he wakes usually once at about midnight and once again a few hours later. Not too bad I reckon, but a big change for me seeing as DS1 slept through from 6 months old. Ahhh, bliss
ZF - swings, that's a fab idea. We only have one fisher price type one, so I think a double swing is the go. Maybe they can have a new pool too. Their one is a bit little for two.
