Helloooooooooooo.
Will be doing a bit of a catch up later, but thought if I didn't just post now I'd never get around to it!
I had a quick scan of the last couple of pages & will join in with the hungry baby / feeding solidarity.
George now actively snatches food from our hands & puts it in his mouth, so we are allowing him bananas for the time being with the reasoning that it's better than the chips, etc, that he really wants! He's also had formula since 16 weeks (although I'm still BFing too) & he's a lot happier.
I know it's controversial, but his first tooth came through at 14 weeks & the second at 16 weeks, & he's a very active baby who also does the commando-type shuffling Boff was describing. He can sit up, hold his own bottle & feed himself, so I don't feel guilty about it. (I promise I've not come running back here to gloat about my 'advanced' baby - for a start off, I've met Karahan , & I couldn't care less about who's doing what).
I just wanted to say that I offer my support to anyone who's not 100% BFing until 26 weeks for whatever reason - it's not the end of the world! & for some babies, it really is better not to, I think.
Much love to you all, & I promise I'll have a mini catch up soon. I miss you all!
As a quick aside, things in my life seem to be looking up & I'm much happier, so there should be much less whinging from this end
