Amber Oh DFiance's dog is the softest dog ever. He wouldn't hurt a fly! But he does get excited and runs about and chases his own tail, which I imagine if you are very little could be a bit startling. But the worst he will do is lick you to death (and give you his giant paw, which also could be a bit frightening to a little child).
Ah I am sure she'll catch up soon bird I had her check up today and now she is at the 75th in length, instead of higher so she's evening out now. She's still between 50th and 75th in her weight and 95th (!) in her head circumference.
But I am pleased she is ticking all the right boxes. They said I could start with some finger foods at any point now so going to let her have a little suck on a rusk later, like they recommended. It's amazing that up to 6 months they recommend only milk, then it seems like everything is OK at 6 months, it's pretty mad.
I think she'll love harder solids though, as she always tries to reach for my sandwich/cake/biscuit if I have one in my hand. She knows food as whenever I am eating and put the spoon or fork in my mouth, she opens her mouth too :)
They also commented on how vocal she is (she is a big talker) and how cheerful she is. So very happy she is such a pleasant child. Though she has started to cry if she has a toy fall on the floor or moved away from her that she wants to play with, so no doubt more crying because she wants something is going to happen pretty soon! Even the bottle couldn't come to her mouth quick enough and she began to make that cry!
What foods has anyone else tried with their little ones?
