Lennie is a proper Chunky Monkey! He was weighed a month ago and was 19lb10. But he just seems huge.
Lennie has 3 bottles a day of 7oz. When he was on 4 I was struggling to get the forth one in, or he was just not drinking it. Now I can give him diary I don't stress over it so much. In the morning he has porrige/weetabix then his milk, then at lunch he has a meal then mid afternoon he has a bottle, then he has tea and then a bottle at bed. One time OH gave Lennie a bottle in the morning, when he normally has food first and I then tried to give him his breakfast, and put one spoon in his mouth, he gagged and out came all the milk! Never doing that again.
Wine it sounds like you have had a tough old time. I hope you are ok.
I went back on the pill a couple of weeks ago......the reason I came off it years ago was because I was psycho and used to bleed every two weeks. I told the nurse this and she said it might be ok for me now as pregnancy changes hormones. So 2 weeks in and I am psycho and on my 2nd period for the month. Should I give it more time? I am sure the bleeding will sort its self out but will my mood? I am hating the way I am. I have no patience and over the last 2 days I have shouted at Lennie when I have never shouted at him before. I just hate it.
Clare where do you walk? I am always amazed by how much you walk a month. My exercise routine has basically dissappeared and I need to do something. Today I walked to the post box which is 20 minute walk so I am glad I have my brother to write to! x

Sounds like I'm doing it right then, like I said Demi is content... Shock horror, she slept through the night!
Rach, I now give Demi her breakfast first, will try porridge this morning, shauns mum said she loves it.
Tmi coming up.... But Demi's pooh nappies have been terrors, soooo much pooh and if I don't catch it straight away it's everywhere. Shaun got a pooh nappy the other day and he was gagging and had to run off! Poor Demi was covered, thank god it was bath time. Lol

Does Holly have teeth? Think I remember you saying you thought you saw one a while ago?
We took out girlies swimming today, it's was really nice coz both girlies loved it, think the holiday pool gave them confidence. It was lovely seeing Shaun and Demi in the pool, lasted nearly an hour!
I put a bottle of boiled water in my bag, to mix the milk powder... Well when I got it out the water had leaked everywhere! Thankgod the cafe was open so I could re fill the water, poor Demi had to wait longer for her milk to cool down!
Also Demi has been dragging herself along the floor this evening, think I'm going to have trouble now. Ha ha.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend xx

Hey ladies!
Thought I'd comment on the current topics as pertains to my lo. Kara is absolutely into anything she can reach. Tonight we were at a restaurant and I had her in my lap, and she grabbed my fork with chicken and on it aiming it at her mouth; and she would have put it in if I hadn't stopped her.
She's so smart.
Speaking of eating, a lot of you mention giving baby bits of solids like bread or banana; how do they eat it with no teeth? How do they not choke? I'm just doing baby food so don't know much about BLW.

all of Hollys food has been solid and she has no teeth , she seems to "chew" it very well . with blw babies tend to learn to chew before they learn to swallow . as long as they are sitting upright and supervised it is fine . Holly has gagged on a few things but has worked it out fr herself that the bit was to big etc and learnt how to spit it out . there is a blw thread on here that has better info than i give ! or if you are interested then there is a blw book by gill rapley.

Clare Lennie doesn't sit up unaided - he manages about 5 seconds then jiggles about so much he falls. He is on the 95th line I think. He only just fits in his car seat - we have the next one ready and I think he will be in it very soon.
Lennie manages chunky food. Still won't feed himself. I don't know how to encourage it more - any ideas? I put some banana in front of him when I was making his tea and he got so hungry I was putting the chunks in his mouth. Then Monday he had a tuna sandwich in little little squares.
His two little bottom teeth are coming through really well. They're so cute! When he smiles and I'm taking a pic you can see them.
Today he also wad on his front and pushed up his chest - lennies so behind but I get so excited when he does these things. Lol. X
