Det that sucks hon. I echo Jupiter's wise words. Also there is no rush to introduce dairy so long as he's getting vitamin D and calcium from other sources. I'm trying soy traces in my diet in June. Eeeek. Am shitting it. Paed reckons with gradual introduction of soy traces, then soy, milk traces then cheese, yogurt, butter and milk - first into my diet then into his - he could be two before he's even ready to try milk and older before it stops hurting.

he floats around giggling, sucking his thumb and chewing my hand. I had to let go of him underwater for the first time today - I was

We've gone in a fortnight from sippy cup being used as a beater to him drinking out of it so well he shuns all help. I've given him water with a wee bit of prune juice to help with constipation so that probably encouraged him. He's also so much better with BLW I'm starting to relax - he used to choke sooooo much so Kyz just keep doing what you're doing. Tonight as well as 5 cubes of puree, baby rice /BM mush - he had bagel and hummus, olives, cherry tomatoes, banana and slices of apple. He is going to be wider than he is tall at this rate.
