Jelly - I meant to ask. As poor O is so restricted on the yums he can have - I was eating some sugar free jelly earlier, and wondering if he could have this, and at what age?
When is jelly okay? 1? I don't want to deprive him of little sweet treats now and then.
I gave him some toast earlier. He attacked the bowl and flung bits of toast everywhere. The dog stole some, then I shoved some in his mouth for him, and he grabbed on to it, nommed it, then choked and puked! D'oh! He managed to pick up a small piece of shredded iceberg lettuce earlier! I was impressed - pincer grip on display! We are going to get going again now I think. Going to give BLW a try again now he is 6 months. Will see...
Oh, for any of the other sitting up babies, a question. O has been trying to sit for about 3-4 weeks but isn't much further on with it? He can do it for 30 seconds or so, but if he moves his head to the side, off he goes over.
He's so frustrated! He keeps assuming the crawl position and failing. But he's been like this with both for almost a month?! Why isn't he getting any further on? Is his brain just ahead of his body?!
Also, changing nappies, with an upside down baby is tricky. The knee change is impossible almost now, I'm often holding on to one leg as he dangles on the floor upside down
and doing it on the floor just means he can roll and escape even easier. I'm ready to give up on changing the little horrorbag!
Also, he's asleep minus swaddle again tonight. He's cracked it!
