Thanks for the suggestions, Noah already sleeps on his front and still manages to flap his dummy out, my special little boy 
I've tried holding it in Molly but he is still flapping his hands around so gets frustrated with me for being in his way. Stupid reflux is just a giant pain in my ass. As for him sucking his thumb I'd actually like to avoid that if possible. It's a much harder habit to break than a dummy habit later on.

it does less damage to teeth and has done my uncle no harm at50 odd. could be i'm just not keen on dummys abby will be on a sippy cup as soon as she can use one as i am aware of the harm bottles do to teeth. Personal preference obviously. For our bfing ladies extending bfing long into having teeth can rot their teeth the same as the milk goes straight over them I'm talking past 1 years really not before. The disaster of living next to a dentalnurse and being good friends lol.
Oh dear i don't know whats tickling abby more nelly the elephant or her play gym toy

Yeah it's true Molly there are pros and cons to thumb sucking and dummies. For us Noah only gets a dummy to help his reflux. Once the reflux is gone so is the dummy. All of the dummies we have are orthodontic ones so are meant to do the least damage possible.
All of my sisters sucked there fingers or thumb. All of them had braces. I didn't suck mine I didn't have braces so that's all my preference was based on

lol matt had a dummy and braces his brother didn't go figure. I'm a nail chewer 3rd generation lol so am expecting the same of abby. Matt thinks she's sucking her thumb I knewbetter shes chewing her fingers lol. I am sure the reaching skill is meant to be with hands abyy has sussed if she kicks her play gym her toys move can she do nothing in the right order lol
I just remembered that formula you said about could just be broken down milk protein as I have the same issue not quit as bad as Sofie by the sounds of it as I can now have milk on cereal but milk does smell gross to me and cream well lets not go there it's not even that nice, but I can eat butter and cheese and ice cream ohh can I eat ice cream lol. It really is not normal for a mamal to drink the milk of another mamal especially after weaning. So as long as he gets calcium will do him no harm no to drink milk later on.
OK she deffinatly grabbed that toy. I'm not allowed to join in this game

Morning all!
Sorry for a crap night Glitz
Just keep in mind that the end is possibly in sight with this new referral! 
Madcat, I hope the iron works. soon
As for me, Mr. Alex is heading into a growth spurt. Night before last, he was up every two hours and took both breasts. Last night, we were up every two hours except for a three hour stretch from 1am-4am. Again, both breasts taken every time and wanting more. He's sitting in his bouncey chair now kicking his legs and hiccupping, lmao! Poor thing is so greedy he swallows too much air and gets gas (both ends)! I'm loving cosleeping though! I feel bad for DH having to sleep on the couch, but Alex settles in my arms and sleeps more soundly. Plus, he's so cozy and soft
I have a new love. Again, poor DH, lmao!

Why doesn't your DH sleep with you and
alex Ozzie? When we co-slept with Noah for the first month when he came home we all slept together when my OH was home.
Molly the paediatrician says that most babies grow out of CMPI so Noah should be able to eat dairy when he's a little older no problem.

Your silly oh Ozzie! We always all slept together. Doesn't work now Byron is older as he's massive and kicks and smacks us in his sleep.
Molly the thing about mammals not drinking other mammals' milk is used in the bf v ff debate a lot. As a biologist you might be surprised but it bothers me a lot. It's nonsensical to compare what we do with wild animals when we have all the advances of technology. When offered it mammals routinely love milk (wherever it comes from) and it's highly nutritious at any age. Other animals also don't cook food but it doesn't mean we shouldn't or that we are better off having everything raw. (Those who follow a raw diet are kidding themselves. It's do indigestible they would need to eat for about 7 hours a day in order to get sufficient energy.). But within individual variation there are peope incapable of digesting all sorts of different foods, just the way we are made either genetically or through illness of one sort or another.
I got Indigo weighed this morning. She's apparently gained exactly a pound since we last went which I think was 2 weeks ago but as I've not looked in the book I don't know how much she is! She's currently asleep on my arm. I was napping too but a huge truck went by and woke me. Byron is asleep. I picked up the vits but it seems the child drops aren't veggie so going to have to ask them about that. No doubt it'll be the vit A. We went to the park too.
God we waited ages to be weighed and there was a 2 year old there who was just vile clearly because his mother had no idea his to discipline. I don't normally think about others' parenting, it's their business, but whilst Byron sat carefully at the toddler table looking at the painted animals this boy was trying to pull the table away so Byron couldn't see it; pushed it into Byron's chest a few times; he lay across the table with his head up at Byron's screaming, pushing and grabbed Byron's top. Everywhere Byron went he followed shouting and pushing and trying to come between Byron and whatever he was doing. Credit to my boy who was so well behaved and didn't shout back or try to snatch anything back. The boy's mother was stood by him the while time all " stop that now, I mean it, sit down here" on the blandest voice which was thoroughly ignored before eventually giving up and leaving him to run wild. If Byron had pushed a table into another child he would've been taken away from it for the whole visit and made to apologise. I would be furious if I saw him treat another child that way. The most rise he gave was to say "get off me, not hold my t-shirt", which was an extremely sweet reprimand! Lol. Sorry to rant, I was really cross.

peanut, you do see some very ill behaved kids now and then, well i know i do and im sorry but i cant help but notice, and i think, "if thats what theyre like out, what an earth do they behave like at home!!!!!?"
Glad indigo is gaining weight nicely.
i forced myself up&out in the end, forced being the word.went to llandudno and walked the prom/beach, bailey likes to sit up in his pram now!!, he stayed awake for the 2 hours i pushed him looking around and smiling. downed a bottle of milk, and slept on the way home. i do feel a bit better for getting out, its the getting up and out in the 1st place thats the problem.

Hello
I like dummies keeps babies quiet lol
Pb if that happened to Caden I would of said something to the boy which I do if he go to the kids soft play area and someone is kicking hitting pushing etc to Caden I go up and say 'oi play nice' my friends think I'm funny but I wouldn't let Caden be like that and I most certainly won't let him get hurt I know I won't be there at school but he knows to say no and to walk away and I'm quite surprised he does!
We went to the library today and signed Caden up so he got three books out that we have read loads of times now! He also can his first in public tantrum,we went to t j hughs to see what sales they had on toys for Christmas and he started crying and shouting at me because he didn't ring father Christmas up to tell him what he wanted from there so I said let's do it when we get home and he shouted no and slapped me so I slapped him back and told him off! I was so embarrassed but I decided to talk to him calmly instead of lettig him cry for the rest of the town trip,he calmed down and said sorry! But my bum hurt so much afterwards lol he's got quite a slap on him!
I got myself a nice bra and thong set to get into when I'm abit skinnier and have stopped bleeding so it's my aim to look nice in underwear again lol

Well the mum was trying albeit feebly so I didn't feel I could intervene. She was just rubbish. I got Byron to play with something else for a bit and the mum went off to get milk so that killed a bit of time before the terror was back. Byron does hold his own. Bit boastful but he has a strong sense of fair play. I've never seen him walk up and take toys off others so he gets really cross and defensive if people try to take things off him. He'll say no and hold on or stop it or whatever. There's a girl at one of his toddler groups who makes a beeline for him and tries to take whatever he has all the time. Maybe he attracts them! At a group some weeks ago he'd chosen his favourite percussion instrument but another boy was in a total huff wanting it and wouldn't join in songs or play anything else so the group leader and inpetsuaded Byron to let the other boy gave a turn and he handed it over. Then no-one asked the other one to share and he kept it the whole of the session while Byron quietly sobbed at his loss! God it was awful!

Alex won't sleep anywhere but my arms today. I've only had one moment to eat lunch. No shower yet. He's feeding quite a bit too and my nipples are killing me

awww madcat.
Peanut the only reason I mentioned the mil thing was so Gilz didn't work for the future and it sort of makes sence of why some people can't handle milk. I'sthe same with animals I've known a few to bring up or squit out milk lol.
As for that child Iwould have had a word with the mother, then pointed it out to the health visitor she needs some sort of help. Might sort the issue out the HV bringing it up.
I got my hair done. put abby in her basket just before i left apparently she fussed the entire time. matt was meant to be sleeping whoops. hair looks good and baby now asleep. Can I be smug that she loves me more

Congrats on the new hair! I keep meaning to trim mine...
Well Buron slept almost 2 hours this afternoon and Indigi 3!! I got my 15 mins or whatever it was. We've been for a dog walk and now Indigo's 3 months and holding her head I tried a new hold in the wrap. Much better as it has her legs out which she won't curl up anymore. I had it a bit loose but will get it right next time now I know what I'm doing. Just waiting for DH.
I'm all signed up to my MSc now. They have my acceptance and a copy of my degree certificate (thank goodness I could find it!). I'm just stupidly excited about doing some learning again!
Gilz, can you tell me about the house buying system in Scotland? Is it still closed bids with the highest winning and it being contractual? If so does that mean we should expect to pay much more than the asking price if we are to have a chance of succeeding? Just getting things prepared for when the time comes...
