Jumping on the "Where did my all night sleeping baby go?!" Bandwagon here! Cruz has been waking a few times in between 4 and 6am for a couple of weeks now - He's not hungry, that's definitely not it and he's formula fed AND he DOES have an Amber Teething Necklace from Amberbebe! We got that a couple of months ago in anticipation - Well worth the investment so far, I think I can notice a difference when he hasn't had in on for a couple of days - Anything's worth a try!
I think it must just be an age thing - Google the 4 month sleep regression - It's a phenomenon! Fingers crossed it'll be over soon and it's sweet dreams for all of us!
Had his needles last Saturday, he cried for 2 minutes, I cried for 20 haha - Has had 2 mustardy poos like Amelia too Alison - Def the rotavirus, happened to us last time as well and I wasn't bf'ing then so pretty sure that's it!
Got him weighed again at needles - 7.95kgs - Theo baby here we come! Hahaha
Loving his Farex, we're going slowly, he has been having it every 2nd day as I think it clogs him up a little, I do make it pretty sloppy though - Sloppy enough that it stays together but runny enough that it would come out of the bowl if that makes sense?? I do 1 heaped teaspoon of Farex to 5 teaspoons of formula... Anyway, he LOVES it, knew exactly what he was doing with it and eats off the spoon like a champ - So damn cute! Starting yesterday we're doing Farex every day for the next week and a bit and next weekend we'll give him a tiny bit of pumpkin to try...
Moving house on Sunday and Internet will take up to 10 working days to be connected - What will I do without my lifeline!!
YAAAAAAAAAY FOR ARCHIE'S BLOODS!! I am so happy! That little man is just waaaay too gorgeous to be sick! How is your Dad going now Kymmy??
Natty I think it was me who said about putting them to bed every 2 hours, but I have found now he is getting older it's about every 2.5 hours to get him to have a proper nap - We are now doing 2 x 2 hour naps a day instead of the old routine and he is happy...
What tme do you ladies all do your last feeds for the night? We put Cruz to bed at 6:30 - 7pm but wake him at 10pm for his "BIG" feed of between 210 - 240mls... Sounds like everyone else is doing an earlier feed and letting them sleep - Am thinking of trying this but I find that if I try to squish Cruz's feeds too close toegtehr he rejects them! Please tell me how you space them out??
Oh and Formula Feeders, how much is your little one taking a day?
Sometimes it's hard to get him to down all of that, other days he guzzles it, for a while he went off it but I discovered that I needed to go up a teat size to the medium flow, so we did - That was only 2 weeks ago and he fed like a champ after that but now is back to mucking around with it and spitting it out as if he's bored, wondering if it's time to go up to fast flow teats ALREADY?!
Argh, am being called to go help with more packing - I hate packing! But I get to buy new furniture at the new place as our current stuff doesn't fit right Woot woo!!
Will be back soon - Much love to you ALL and the precious littlies!! xx
