Hey girls! Been swamped at work today! Jaxie is 8 months today!
Casey, there's nothing wrong with strictly BM. Other cultures BF exclusively for far longer I'm sure. Oh, and my OH is the same...but he'll take him when I need a break withotu a problem, but he won't volunteer himself for it. I think as Jax gets older he'll have more of an active role with him. I read somewhere that children spend 75% of their time with mom anyways so it appears that it's normal.
Any update on Kat? I hope kitten is on her way!
I agree Suz. Solids are fun for me and Jax is such a little piglet...he eats anything and grunts when you don't stuff his mouth quickly enough!! He's going to give himself a hernia!
Someone asked about pets...Jackson loves the dog...adores him, but the dog stays away. I let Jackson explore, but mostly he just wants to play with his collar. I always stay close by, not because I'm afraid the dog will bite him or anything, but because he might roll or kick him accidently.
Oh and Lisa, we did a lot of trial and error to see what worked and what didn't. I never did a 'dream feed' we just put him down super late, but I think for Casey the DF worked great! It just depends on you and your baby!
