Take it the 'problem' thread/threads were removed?

I would kinda like to know what went down. What was the argument about so I don't accidentally bring it up?

Like other girls can't really imagine the dreamers getting heated, can't think of anything controversal enough that involves our lovely babies.

 

[WILSMUM]

it was a really trivial thing that started it all off so dont worry i dont think u'll accidentally stumble across it in general cnversation!

Ailsa has a few shorter naps as well, she usually has 3-4 30 min naps and 1 hour long nap a day!

 

[YoungNImum]

As wilsmum said its not a convo you couls stubble into lol

How many meals are your LO's on now & how much (roughly) are they eating?

 

[wishingforbub]

thanks youngNImum he has done it a few times now, but at night he has been super restless we'll see - he only wants to nap in his maxi cosi now ??? very strange , whereas before he would sleep on me! How is Eva's daytime sleeping? Yesterday Noah had 2 shorter naps as we were out and then had that 2hr one.

Kelly I am giving Noah some rice cereal in the morning- depending on his mood how much he eats as he doesn't really like it. then I give him about 1ounce of pureed fruit/veg at lunch time then again "dinner" time. I hope I am giving him enough?? I also make sure he drinks a tiny bit of cooled boiled water each day. And he has 1ml of Vit D drops everyday too which he hates! It's so sunny here, but it's too hot to go outside! LOL

Caitlyn is having 1 little meal of fruit puree just as a sort of taster - she had some baby rice last week, the last 4-5 days its been pear which is giving her lots of dirty nappies! She seems to like it though.

I didnt give her anything yesterday as she had a lot of dirty nappies in the last couple of days and a BF baby isnt used to that! I thought I might do apple and cinnamon today -there is a recipe in my Annabel Karmel book.

The HV told me I will need to give her additional vitamins after 6 months as she is a BF baby - FF babies get it in their milk anyway. So I will need to look into drops.

Im kind of doing the food as a taste and addtion to milk not as an alternative until she is 6 months so Im not upping the amount of food yet until 26 weeks.

F is nearly 7 months and in the last month he has basically gone from 1 meal to 3! I didn't give him much before 6 months but he wasn't a perticularly hungry baby....he is now though! A right fatty bum!

We are doing BLW with Ivy so I don't really know how much she eats, she pretty much gets offered 3 meals a day though. Breakfast she isnt really interested by lunch and dinner she seems to really enjoy.

I always carry around breadsticks and organix snacks now to offer her too

Hon did your HV tell you about Vitamin drops - I got a leaflet from mine about how all BF babies should have Vits A,C,D till 5yrs old - slightly confused by that to be honest!

My HV said that vitamin drops weren't necessary She said as long as my diet is good (which it is) and Ivy gets at least 20 minutes a week out in the sunshine (which she does) and we offer her foods with iron in then they aren't really needed.

I find it very very confusing the different advice that different health visitors give!

To those that are now on 3 meals a day ~

How much milk would you say they are having in 24hours?

Sorry for all the questions ~ But as our LO's are all similair ages, its good to know

 

[mummyclo]

F has about 4 7oz bottles (he usually leaves an ounce or so though) so he is getting minimum 22oz a day id say x

Arggggggghhhh!!!


bugger - should i be worried about this?

Mizze

 

[KellyC75]

Thanks

I was really worried Meadow wasnt getting enough milk as she only manages 5 oz bottles ~ Due to her reflux....

However I have just added the amount together & she has:

4am 4oz
7am 5oz
10am 5oz
1pm 5oz
4pm 5 oz

So looks pretty good compared

She cant have a bottle before bed, as it makes her so very unsettled, shame beacause then she may not need the 4am feed! Also I like bedtime routines with bath, story, milk, sleep But we have to miss the milk!

Ivy has a little patch of hair there - and she is fair haired. I also have a little bit of hair on my lower back, I am pretty sure it is normal

***************​

As for milk - Ivy is still having at least 6 good breastfeeds a day, so i am guessing in the region of 20+ oz
