Morning all! Typically Eric has just woken from a nap when I've started writing this so I bet it takes ages to finish it now!!
Well, it worked, in fact it over worked, he woke late! Usually he does 8-7 so why when I put him to bed at 7 does he not wake till 8? That's 13 hours straight! I am not complaining but do wish I could give some needy quiche members a few of the hours I get!
eliza he can put away a phenomenal volume of food! If its home cooked or blw style he eats less and I am trying not to use too many pouches for meals but when he gobbles up a home cooked portion and the only other thing to hand is a pouch to top him up then that's what happens :/ I am going to get extra portions of food out of the freezer as when I made stuff a couple of weeks ago he was not eating this amount! Breakfast is still a small meal but he has that after his bottle so it's to be expected. I haven't tried to do breakfast first for a while as when I did he just cried for his milk, after all the sleeping he does he just wants milk when he wakes and I don't mind that. Absolutely brilliant about e btw, she is doing so so well!!!!! I hope you have a good time tonight :)
Lol det when elyza was little her crying would set off e! The paddling pool situation sounds rather funny though lol!
Bless him vq he might accept pudding type things at first? Eric loves a good bit of steak, I bet it feels nice on the gums! J has teeth doesn't he? Did he suck steak to bits or actually eat some? Well done to him I say :) e is like prs dd2, prefers ready made purée. He usually has puréed something and some kind of finger food. For example if I do spag Bol I do a bowl of purée and then give him some pasta and perhaps a dollop of mince and sauce if I can deal with the extra mess. At the least he has pudding on a spoon and usually wants some dinner spooning in because he can't eat quick enough!
you can't seriously both have a temp though? Too fucking unfair!!!! :( takes the bastard piss :( hugs :( on a lighter note I would love to meet you too :)
I am glad you all liked my sweary description :) it's the only way I am any good with my creative side, swearing :)
I could probably do that weekend :)
for the bad nights :(
fatima here I don't have to take him but like to keep an eye on his weight and obviously when they weigh him they have something to say! I don't think I need to take him so often though, at first I worried about his milk and then I worried he wasn't having enough once he started weaning and now providing he drinks his 20oz I let him get on with it as usually he eats well and drinks less milk or the other way around, and he doesn't dip below 20oz and normally eats at least a pudding but that is getting very rare now, that he refuses food. Quite often I have to make something else as he doesn't like the first thing, or he finishes is and I have to give something else, but he does seem to be doing better these days and is offered plenty. They have all told me different advice but the last one made it clear she thought he was too big and at least twice I've been told to take one if not two bottles from him by the time I next see them. I am not taking his bottles, unless he stops wanting them, I'm not supposed to take them, am I? i know he needs at least 20oz so I try to use that as a guide and as long as he has that plus whatever extra and solids he wants I let him go with it. He isn't fat, he is fine IMO.
Glad you are still about chasing we just worry about you and miss you when you aren't there, hugs
pass cos that's how she rollllsssss
Eric is having a small snack. He woke peckish, so I have given him two rice cakes. That is an ok snack isn't it? Dinner is at 12
