Thomas doesn't grab stuff much. He sometimes bats things with his hands, and he loves it when you hold his hand, but he still doesn't hold things.
I had a frustrating week last week with Tom and thrush. He has some thrush on his tongue which isn't *really* interfering with his feeding but he's gone off comfort sucking. So I went to the chemist to get some Daktarin or something for it, and the chemist wouldn't give it to me until Tom had been to the doctor, even though it's an over the counter medication. I didn't want to have to make a whole appointment just to have the doc say "yes", but I didn't want to lie either. I mean, it's been a while since I had to use any of it and I couldn't remember how old Genna was when we used it on her. So we had to wait until this morning when dh and I got our whooping cough boosters to ask, and of course the doc said yes.
In the meantime, I've was asking every chemist I pass by to sell me some and they acted like I was trying to buy crack LOL. Anyway, I got it today and started giving it to Tom on his dummy. So hopefully that white tongue will disappear.
