We got the go ahead to start from 17 weeks. She is hit and miss - loves yogurts, porridge and sweet potato. Hard to get veg into her - she had a full blown row with me today when I was trying to give her carrots for dinner - shouting at me like a teenager 😂😂😂

The dog is loving her eating though, this was tonight when she was having her banana wafer 😂

Yea it’s messier but once you get use to it then it’s fine. The other downside is the nappies 😫😂

So how is everyone getting on generally?

We hit 5 months last week but she was poorly for it. She had a viral infection so was on antibiotics. But apart from that she has been great, sleeping well and eating well.

We started in baby swim classes and she loves it, only half hour a week but it wipes her out.

Sorted out my maternity leave with work and back in November 😫

Don’t give me this veg 😅🤣 I’m pretty lucky Atlas loves veg minus broccoli 🥦 he had his first carvery today loved a roast potato.

our dog is also loving weaning and all the food he’s dropping! How cute is that photo!

Nora is 6 month old today and has zero interest in food whatsoever 😅 plenty of interest in cups of tea and my water bottle though.

pretty sure my older two had decided to introduce solids by 5 / 5.5 months by nabbing it off of your plate but Nora isn’t having any of it. Going to reassess and take it as it comes but just keep carrying on what we’re doing. She’ll decide to nab food off me when she’s ready… probably.

Robyn was 5 months old this week and I can’t believe how quickly the time is flying! We haven’t started any kind of weaning yet but I think she will be really keen for food when we start, she loves watching us eat 😂

She has 2 teeth and more on the way, RIP my nipples because she is a biter 😭 it’s the first time since the newborn days of barely being able to pee without her on the boob that I’ve wanted to stop because it hurts so bad!

Other than that she’s just growing up so quickly, she’s already getting into mischief army crawling around the place.. she’s going to keep me on my toes for sure. Everything goes straight in her mouth 🙈

So sad to read Moosey’s story. I think of her often and I really hope she gets her
much deserved happy ending!

For some reason I’ve stopped getting notifications from the chat so I’ve missed all this.

I often think of moosey and baby Ava. I’ve just read the FB post 😔 Sending all the positive vibes and baby dust her way.

We’ve just hit the 6 month mark and about to start weaning this week. I can’t believe where the time has gone.

I hope everyone is well and coping okay in the heat! X
