...WE HAVE A TOOTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so ridiculously over-the-top excited it's untrue!!! She's been teething since she was 8 weeks old bless her.... but it's finally paid off!!!!!!

She's also mastered the art of sitting up by herself this week too!

For the last few weeks, she's been saying "Dadadadada" and when she sees one of the cats she says "A.....A....A..."!!!! Just trying now to get her to say Mum!!

On the downside though, she's been having a terrible time with her acid reflux,(You may have seen this thread: https://www.babyandbump.com/weaning-kids-nutrition/94342-weaning-reflux-advice-needed-long-post.html ) and we took her to see the GP a couple of weeks ago who suggested we stop her solids, as we noticed her symptoms increase as we started weaning. And since we have, she's been much more settled and sleeping better too. However, her weight gain has slowed down far too much (when she was weighed on Thursday, she was only 16lb 2oz, which was only a 6oz gain in 4 weeks!!) and so we've got to go back to the GP tomorrow to get a referral to a specialist, to see if there's a better medication we can try so we can get her eating again, as the Gaviscon alone isn't cutting it!

I've attached some recent pics - one of my faves being her first time sat in the "big girl seat" in the shopping trolley.... she looks so grown up!!!!

awww happy 7 months morgan, do hope her reflux gets better soon :hugs: sounds like she's doing great though and :yipee: for the tooth x
 
Thanks everyone for your lovely replies.

Well after an argument with my crappy GP on Monday, I got him to refer her (he wanted to wait another four weeks and see how she gets on.... I can't leave her another four-plus weeks without proper food!!!!).

I had to ring the hospital to make an appointment, and was really pleased to find out we only had to wait a fortnight... got her an appt with the paediatric outpatients clinic on 4th March!

So fingers crossed they'll be able to sort something for her to cut down the acid so she can actually eat.... poor lamb, we try really hard not to eat in front of her as she looks so sad that she's not having any! :cry:
 
YAY!!!!!!!!!!! on the tooth!! :happydance:

gorgeous pics she looks so beautiful and grown up

Hope she gets better soon hun :hug:
