Please give your baby's favourite foods so we can get some ideas from each other.

Does it count as crawling if he doesn't manage to lift his arse? He lifts his torso and frog kicks his legs and has managed to travel 3 feet!!! The cat was like this >>>> Shock Shock

I thinknwe haveto see a video of that cute little move in order to judge for ourselves. Sounds very sweet.

Am onto it PR a watched baby never boils or something.... Envy

ChasingDaisy · 23/05/2013 18:17

He's had 13oz today Sad I'm stressed, massive headache Sad Think it is teeth but I'm getting to the end of my tether.

ValiumQueen · 23/05/2013 18:52

Chasing J had 17 oz on average during this recent illness. Has he been sick at all? Snotty? Coughing? Keep offering little and often. I have been feeding J two hourly at the moment. If worried call NHS24 and get him seen. Good temp is ok. Have you tried calpol or teething gel? Make sure you drink plenty and eat well and sleep when he sleeps.

Day 8 of sickness here and J is still very fragile. Asleep on my lap as cannot settle for coughing. No temp, more of an appetite, but vomiting with coughing. I am tired of this.

ValiumQueen · 23/05/2013 18:54

Pass we need a pic of your hair. I could happily shave all mine off.

ChasingDaisy · 23/05/2013 18:55

No other signs of illness. Have given calpol and teething gel. Think he has now got so overtired and over hungry that he doesn't know what to do with himself. P has managed to calm him down and feed him and is getting him ready for bed. I have ibuprofen, tea and matchmakers.

ChasingDaisy · 23/05/2013 18:56

Yes pass hair pic please!

Poor J VQ. Is he being very brave? I think of him as the calm and brave type Smile

Pikz · 23/05/2013 18:59

LO and DP in bath together after a family day at the seaside. My heart has melted.

Big hugs to all... Am feeling very soppy and not even had any Wine

PetiteRaleuse · 23/05/2013 19:11

It could be sore gums chasing

vq I'm sorry J is still so poorly

Any news from kyz ?

I have a very grumpy baby with very swollen gums this evening. She's starting to not like me leaving her in her cot. She's done all sleeping in the cot since birth so not sure why that is suddenly a problem. Only during the day. Night time is easy. Maybe she just wants to stay up with everyone else.

PetiteRaleuse · 23/05/2013 19:12

pikz Envy at the day at the seaside. Sounds lovely.

ChasingDaisy · 23/05/2013 19:15

pikz that sounds lovely. You seem so content Smile

Passmethecrisps · 23/05/2013 20:03

BigPigLittlePig · 23/05/2013 20:07

It's still taking ages for N to go to sleep. 45 mins! Yep best so far this week, so WTF Angry

Go to sleep N, please!!!
Evil

YellowWellies · 23/05/2013 20:22

Evil Jonas takes 40 mins - 1 hour of BF and cuddling to get him to sleep every night. I figure he'll not be this little for long. It might just be what he needs? Is he sleeping better once he's down? I can forgive a long bed time if he sleeps well at night.

Det are you OK?

Pikz · 23/05/2013 20:31

Finally catching up.

VQ and prince VQ I wish i could fix everything, I am so sorry it's taking such a long time to see him feeling betterThanks

I hope LO has integrity, retains his huge smile and sense of adventure. I hope like his father he is a gentle giant.

Hope kzy has had a better day

Det just hugs and wine.

Evilwater · 23/05/2013 20:32

YW once he is down, then he stays asleep till hunger. He has always gone down in under 30mins. So this behaviour is new, also he is impossiable to get him to nap during the day. He gets over tired quickly Confused

I'm glad to read that most people had a good night, and a good day.

Where is det hope she is ok. Also chasing I hope things are better.

ChasingDaisy · 23/05/2013 20:35

Evil how old is N now? Is it growth spurt behaviour?

Detective talk to us misses.

Kyz if you're reading this I'm thnking of you. Well, even if you don't read this I'm think of you...you know what I mean....

horseylady · 23/05/2013 20:37

chasing today he's eaten about 35oz so far and probably vommed 30.

Fucking reflux and fucking finger food and fuck off.

If he's not vomming due to reflux, he's vomming because he's decided to gag on something. Sometimes he gags, sometimes he doesn't.

Today I'm fed up of smelling of sick and cleaning up sick.

The high point was vomming in my favourite shop. Everywhere. Then he laughed!!!

Evilwater · 23/05/2013 20:40

chasing he is seven months. He's just starting rolling on his front and doing mini push ups.

Evilwater · 23/05/2013 20:42

horsey I hope things get better soon.
