He's adorable and getting so big!!! I can't believe its been that long already either!!
 
So cute wantanerd! My LO turned 5 months on the first... this year is just flyyyiing by! Hope your move goes well. :)
 
Hi Ladies:wave: sorry to have been gone so long, I will have to read back soon. Updated my journal, but came down with one illness after another. Did any of you have pregnancy rhinitis? I have had it since about week 11 and it got worse leading to a sinus infection that then infected my throat leading to laryngitis and as we all know, nooothing you can truly have for meds to relieve... I am back however, and have my 16 wk appt this afternoon. Anxiously awaiting it to make sure all is well in there with LO after the beat down Mommy took over the last week with illness. Hope you are all doing well.
 
I've had issues with my sinuses since early on.. I sleep with a cool mist humidifier in my room now, and I put a small Dab of Vicks under my nose at night.. I also sleep with raised pillows.. Other then that I just constantly try a d blow my nose ( which does nothing)
 
put a layer of vicks on your feet then cover them with socks. It really helps with congestion and sinus issues.
 
MrsMM hope you stay feeling well. Sorry i am no help on that stuff... I can give you morning sickness advice however.
 
Thanks SKEET, WANTANERD and ARMYW. I am feeling soooooooo much better today. My appt went very well yesterday, was very quick. The LO is doing well although mommy has been sicker than ever. My BP and everything was great and we have our gender scan set for 12.31!!! What a wonderful day for a surprise right! We will ring in the new year knowing exactly what we are having and DD will be happy to find out how she is a big sister!!!! We are looking forward to the day. The doc gave me some sudafed to help continue to dry up my sinuses and keep the headaches down. I was the happiest ever to have meds!!! I have a vaporizer that I used the last couple of nights. I am moving to the cool midst this weekend as the doc believes that the infection will be gone and I will just be left with the pregnancy rhinitis I've had all along.
 
What a great day to find out the gender!! I hope your lo cooperates!! Drink a glass of orange juice on your way in, it usually helps get the lo moving!
 
So sorry to hear you've been poorly Mrs MM - hope u feel better soon. Cant wait for the gender announcement!

Gorgeous pic army!!!

Has anyone heard from Haj? Last I heard she was on her way to a possible baby shower :shrug:
 
Well we've had E sitting at the table with us the last week or so and he really started to seem interested in our plates yesterday, sowe gave him a baby spoon with apple sauce on it to see what he did. He promptly grabbed it and stuck it in his mouth and seemed Thrilled with himself. LOL. Soooo we are going to start with some other things on the BLW path soon! So exciting!
 
apple sauce was doyle first food as well! He eats almost everything we have given him! So far only rice cereal and oatmeal are the two things he doesn't seem to like.

Are you doing BLW? Obviously apple sauce isn't a finger food, but we did let him feed himself after we loaded up his spoon. He looooved it. I wasn't planning on doing any cereals, since I think E would probably find them just as bland as I do. I have some bananas and avocados ripening up on my counter too. I'll probably let him try those this weekend or early next week when they're good and ripe. Eep! So many new things for the little guy. I swear, being a parent is like discovering the world alll over again. :)
 
Aww that sounds so cute i cant wait to start weaning.. Can they have fruit purees as a first food? Or should it be baby rice first? It seems to be recommended bu i was thinking surely natural stuff is better than a processed food?

So it depends who you ask..

My ped is against it because it turns to sugar so fast once eaten. (the white rice that is, most people don't use the brown rice) I planned on doing BLW before he even talked to me about that. But after reading about it I am happy with our choice to avoid it. We are going to give her the same stuff we eat.

I just gave him regular applesauce, wasn't even baby puree. He did fine with it. I mean, some ended up on his head, shoulders, etc, but he got most of it in his mouth and didn't seem to mind the texture. :) I'm not doing any cereals for a while. I think there's probably more nutritional value in fruit/veg. If I'm eating oatmeal, I might let him try it and see if he likes it. I usually add honey to mine though, so that'll be a no-go for him for a good while yet.
 
Hmmm.. Im so confused about it all everyone on here seems to do blw but id never heard of it before!

So i went out for my xmas meal the other night just for 2 hrs and left lo with oh...

I am still reading on it but you just let the baby deiced what to eat and let them feed themselves. I am still figuring it all out myself.

Awww she wanted her mama! My DH would have probably came and gotten me! lol
