Bicnod how did you get on with the Teetha granules? I'm shovelling them into Orbit at the moment - one tooth is through but he's still working on the other one, poor lamb. More high pitched squealing!
Guimauve it doesn't sound to me like H needs any more milk - if he was hungry then he'd be chowing down the formula, surely? Think you've just got a slow grower (they're the best ones - DS1 is still a lightweight )
Also on the cooking without salt - if you cook everything without salt (which we did because DS1 was sharing our meals with BLW) it's amazing how quickly you get used to it and stop noticing. Also, DS1 loves garlic and chilli, we didn't ever make food bland for him, we just didn't put salt in. In fact, he can pack away DP's mega hot chilli without batting an eyelid, whereas I need loads of plain yogurt with it!
Sorry am no help on formula/water debates - DS1 had formula during the day from about 9 months, but I think I just made them up as I went along and didn't bother sterilising anything, and was bf at night.
Feierabend, how's DD1's nose? Hope it's feeling a bit better. Did you buy some nice pants?
gingersarah - the BLW mantra is 'Food is for fun, until they're one' - they don't actually need much solids for nourishment as long as they're still bf or drinking formula, so you don't have to worry about getting enough nourishment into them. DS1 didn't really start eating food properly until about 9-10months, which is when he was ready for it. (And that wasn't because of the BLW, because every so often we'd offer him pureed food, if we were out and that's all there was, for example, and he used to turn it down more often than not.)
frekkles - glad to hear your test was negative!
