2happy - when my dd was 22 weeks (that's the last weight I have in red book) she weighed just 13lb 4, she was very tiny for ages but I didn't worry about her weight as she was a happy, lively and alert little thing. My 2 boys have been quick to grow and are big but they're just all different. Ds2 was 19lb 15 at 26 weeks.
Wilkie - ds2 just eats what we eat and it's so easy and relaxing, well as relaxing as you can get with a 5, 3 and 6 month old at the table , just being able to give him the food and let him get on with it. He usually has toast for breakfast, lunch is whatever we're having and same with dinner. No fish and chips yet hehe but he's had chow mein, spag bol, yesterday's dinner was steamed brocolli and carrot which he loves and stuffed loads of brocolli in, potato boulangere which he also loved and baked chicken. I haven't given him chicken yet but will do in a couple of weeks, taking it slow with meat. He needed a bath afterwards as he was covered in veg but he loves a bath anyway. Wondering what to do for dinner tonight now. I haven't given eggs yet either but when I do egg and soldier or scrambled eggs for breakfast too. Hope you're feeling a bit better soon.
Sorry to hear about your friend's mum, don't know what I'd do without mine.
Rgee - maybe she's teething? Ethan has been a bit off the past few days so tried bongela and calpol last night and the night before and he was much happier. I think he's teething too but it can take months for the teeth to come through but they can still hurt. Both dd and ds1 were late teethers so I'm not expecting a tooth through yet but I do think he's teething.
Vino - I haven't had a period yet but I am still bf so who knows when one will turn up. I'm happy as I hate them anyway, usually quite heavy Dh has had his all clear after his snip now so that's something less to worry about. I do wonder whether I'll want another baby in a few years but he really doesn't so I guess this is fair, he didn't eve want 2 let alone 3 lol.
DH - hope you survived the inlaws staying.
eah - that's not very nice is it, I know how you feel as I used to hate indian food but I now like some dishes, my tastes have changed as I've got older. I used to hate spicy food, couldn't eat any of it but now I can tolerate mild ones. They should have been more considerate to you as there ust be plenty of other places to eat where you would all like the food.
LTH - I believe there are ranges of weight so you have to check the carseat, we have a birth to toddler one in one, so I'm not sure. I think we're going to turn ours round soon as he's well over the weight for rear facing. I know they're safer rear facing so we're leaving it as long as possible.
eah - heroes is brilliant, we've seen them all already as dh downloaded them, weren't they already on sky though? Anyway, it's a really good show and i won't give anything away.
I love Freya or Frieya for a little girl, Ethan would have been that had he been a girl and I love Leo or Leonardo for a boy but dh didn't.
