he was on nursing strike all day saturday and on the first attempt at saturdays bedtime feed he spat it out
but inthe end he fed and was fine.....
he would normally have an afternoon feed too but has ntot asked for it all weekend........
this is fine too - BUT IT HAS TAKEN ME ALL WEKEend to realise that this is fine
he is 18 months for goodness sake
