@tashx don't worry at all as @jadey1991 said they will be burning off calories once on the move! He looks absolutely fine to me. We all worry about weight, I'm the opposite and worry Matthew is too slim. He's breast fed so I feel guilty he's not putting on weight as well as other babies but he does gain every week at least and is hitting the milestones, has enough wet and soiled nappies, etc. @jadey1991 do you still just breast feed? Just wondering as Josiah looks to be thriving! Matthew is 18 weeks now I think he weighs just over 11lbs but can't be sure as that's just me weighing him and my scales aren't that precise. Everyone's babies are looking great 🥰

@2020mission
Thankyou hun

@2020mission hey hun, Matthew looks so cute. I think his weight is fine hun. He looks so happy sitting there.
I am still breastfeeding 98% of the time. I have Josiah a bottle a couple times because he is cluster feeding. So that makes up the 2% as well as giving him some food now and then. Josiah is just a big boy I think. My other 2 children were nothing like how Josiah is now🤦🏽‍♀️lol

@2020mission is Matthew mixed with anything? Or is that just his natural glow. He looks so beautiful 😻

@tashx honestly don't worry! Baby S is 17 weeks and weighing 17 pounds!! 😂😂 she's very long though! People keep thinking she's about 6/7 months. Ignore the comments, he looks fine.

@Theawkwardblonde
Thankyou
People say Jesse looks about 8 months

@tashx please don’t worry, 18 weeks here and weighing 16lbs 2oz. And I don’t even think my boy is that big really. Just average I would say. Ignore the comments, babies can’t be over fed!

oh god!! The sleep regression, this last week has really hit us. We were sleeping through mostly from around 8pm till 6am but now having a minimum of 2 wake ups a night but more often than not about 4 times from 1am. He seems to sleep ok until then then is just on and off awake till morning fussing and whinging but not really crying. My OH works away in the week too so it’s all on me and I am exhausted. He doesn’t nap well in the day either so can’t even grab an hour on the sofa as he’ll only sleep for longer than 40 minutes of being held 🙄 good job he’s cute really! Haha

@Decadesbcun snap same here with me. Josiah will go down about 21:00 be okay for a couple goes then he starts tossing and turning and waking up. He doesn't settle again until about 1am

Jesse fusses til about 11:30/12
Sleeps til 3am
And then fusses
From 4 am til about 6:30
Then he sleeps 😂
I dread the evenings

@tashx don't worry about weight at all, I had Dexter weighed at 17 weeks and he was 20lbs!! Getting him weighed again on Thursday to make sure he's not gone off the scales but at the moment he's on 98th percentile for weight and height. Health visitor isn't worried as has always been big and was induced due to being big in the womb. He's just a big boy, and as others have said when they start moving about they'll burn a lot off. I was ebf until about 2 weeks ago when I started introducing food. He absolutely loves it and demolishes anything I give him. So far have tried baby porridge, sweet potato, carrot, banana and melon!
He's been a bad sleeper since birth, waking every two hours for the first 4.5 months of his life so he's actually better than he's ever been now, only waking twice normally thank god! He usually goes down around 7pm, wakes at around 1am and 5am and then wakes for good around 7-8am so it's loads better than he was. At least the fact that he was never good means he couldn't get any worse 😂 He's also thankfully quite good at sending himself back to sleep if he wakes so sometimes I'll leave him if he's just chatting to himself and he'll go back off on his own! Picture attached of my chunky monkey x

@burtle4 OMG isn't he a cutie. I love that pic... I'm glad he is doing alot better. Aww our babies are growing up fast. Soon they will be 1 year old

Sorry MN not giving me notifications again.

@jadey1991 he does look mixed in that photo doesn't he? 😅 it must just be the lighting! My husband is fair with blue eyes so Matthew is definitely looking more like me with brown eyes and hair. Josiah has a lovely skin tone.

@burtle4 aww Dexter is so cute

@2020mission aww bless he has your eye colour. Yeah he does look mixed. He just has a natural colour lol

@2020mission thanks hun, Josiah is mixed. Half white and half Caribbean

How's everyone doing?
Jesse is 22 weeks and had his 1st finger food of carrot puffs
He loved it
I guess he's already ready for finger foods
Hates me feeding him now
My others weren't ready til at least 7 months

He also saids " mum" and nearly " dad "
These covid babies are different
