Wowzer!!! That's a brilliant weight.Was Josh a big baby? I think frankie was 17lbs at 6 months. Mickey is still small in terms of weight, he was 11lbs 1oZ at 9 weeks but I'm not surprised after the first four weeks were so tough. He didn't really get a proper full feed until he was four weeks old and we had a referral to the specialist at hospital. He's making up for it in length though, on the 91st centile at his 8 week check! He is also still in his 0-3 clothes too, Jen.

Frankie's behaviour had improved lately but I think that's as much to do with me finding my feet and getting into a better routine at last! Good to hear that Josh is doing better too. Xx

Hi girls, just thought I'd check in. Can't believe our babies are growing so fast. It's over a year since we started this thread! Mickey is doing really well. Still not sleeping through consistently but in general only waking once a night now (although had a tough oaat couple of nights as he is teething and has a cold). He's weighing in at about 14lbs 7oz, following the 25th centile perfectly.

Things are so much easier nowadays. We've found our feet and have the semblance of a routine. Mickey pretty much has had to fit in with Frankie but has done so. He is doing much better with feeding, emptying a breast in about 5-10 minutes now, which is a huge improvement on the 45 minutes it was taking before. He is yet to roll, but his brother was 6 months before he rolled so I'm not bothered. He is very strong and loves to be standing holding my hands or in the jumperoo. He is reaching out for things now but is still a little clumsy picking them up. But best of all is that he pretty much laughs and smiles all day. He's very happy. We are having him baptised in two weeks which will be a lovely day.

How are Jake, Josh and Martha? X

Hi

Things are very busy with us Martha is growing far too fast can't believe that this time last year she was a little bean in my tummy.
We are still battling the day time naps some days she will only sleep 20 mins all day and still refuses her cot in the day.
We moved her into her own room at 4 months and she has slept so much better and now goes to bed by 7.30 most nights. I try to dream feed but she isn't interested really and tends to wake at 5am most mornings.

We have recently started weaning as she was still constantly feeding from me and my poor nipples were cracked and very sore . She is loving her food and so far is having just apple, pear, carrot and sweet potato.

I can't seem to get a day time routine going yet but I'm sure we will get there soon I just need to work at it a bit more.
