    did the steam not make all the powder gunky and stick to the scoop! This annoys me soooo much!

    I boil kettle, fill 4 bottles up to 7oz each.
    Put 28 scoops powder into an empty jug (therefore avoiding clumpy, steamy powder spoony thingy), then pour bottle water into jug, mix, and pour into bottles.
    Cool in sink of cold water, and put into fridge.

    However, while we're on milk - how much milk should weaned babies have? (For all the mums of bigger babies!)

    Typical day in the 3 household;
    6am - 7oz bottle (or 30min Boobie)
    9.15 - breakfast (cereal/or today, toast)
    10.30 - 7oz bottle (before sleep)
    1 pm - dinner with water and fruit
    2.45 - 7 oz bottle (or 20min boobie)
    5.30 - tea with water and fruit
    7.30 - 7 oz bottle (or 30 min boobie).

    Bottles/boobie depends on where we are/what we're up to.............I typically feed her myself about twice a day.

    Is this too much?
    I feel that my day is a cycle of feeding/changing.
    hello,

    Had my little boy on 29th August and having just read through 12 pages i thought i'd better introduce myself and little Aflie....

    Congrats Fitz and Alfie....... i've been reading your HUGE thread over the last few months and you're an inspiration! Well done on your gorgeous little boy - you must be so proud!

    Can i ask, are you deff having the tongue tie snipped and if so why? (I'm just being nosey so feel free to ignore)

    DS had tongue tie at birth, and they said it would be operated at some point, if it was still a problem at a certain age! :confused: It obviously got better as no op. was needed.


    I've been to Ikea today and got my Antelope highchair. Very good for £10.99 :money:.
    Also got some undercot storage, and some little lights to attach to our headboard so OH can read his boring war books without annoying me! :rolleyes:

    Blizted in soup and stews are a great idea, except she won't eat those either!! Anything "saucy" she avoids like the plague, and it's not from lack of trying with me, every dinner time, she gets served what we have, and then the whole time I'm eating I get "I'm not hungry, I don't like food, I don't like it etc etc etc"

    Not sure about bananas being too heavy? I've eaten them before bed with no ill effects and mummys are known for lying, my mum told me eating pickled onions before bed would make me crap the bed. LIES!!
