Poor wee Charlie! Get well soon x

My poor baby. Today I have managed to hit her chin whilst wrestling a remote control from her, poke her in the eye whilst removing her bib, and then she was very sick at dinner when she was seriously choking. It was horrendous, DH was feeding her whilst I was making our dinner, and she started choking and it was coming out her nose and she was quite distressed. So was poor hubby.

Hello SJ! Glad to hear Alfie is doing well and you are getting plenty of sleep. Not jealous at all about your weight! Flaming breastfeeders lol.

I'm not good with those 1 shoulder types and Fritha doesn't use them herself (I think we must have similar wonky backs lol) GISI is good with her ring sling, she might be better to advise

I have one and can't get to grips with it at all. My OH used it once when bubs was about 6 weeks old and quite liked it, but I've never been able to adjust it so that he's comfortable in it. Now that he's 6 months old there is more flexibility in the positions so I could dig it out again I suppose but to be honest I feel safer with my second hand baby bjorn!

Hmmm, not sure then! I have ended up with one as it was reduced to £15 in TK Maxx and it was the last one....I walked it all around the shop and even put it back at one point, but picked it back up. I just reasoned that if I don't like it then I would probably sell it for the same anyway, it's all boxed etc:)

I tried kai in it on the side and back and he found it highly amusing for about 5 mins then wanted out:cool:

They also had a Chicco something, and one by infantino.....was looking at them too but thought this looked better for a newborn?? I don't know, I am useless with slings and I really don't want to spend out a lot on something I may not even use:o

Oh poor Charlie, I bet caz is frantic....I am sure he will be right as rain in no time:D



Sami did you decide on a cot/bed in the end?

Oh my other bargain from TK Maxx was a cardi by some designer, it was previously £119 reduced to £24.99...I love it:D

Poor H and OH!

I tried to feed K a stage 2 jar of carbonara and he made himself gag then projectile vomit. Its actually the first time hes ever been sick since he was a day old and very mucousy. Me no likely, he was choking on it and everything

He just doesn't do bits and lumps in food. Its got to be stage 1 puree or actual food that he holds and eats himself. That carbonara signalled the end of stage 2 jars lol

fattybooboo

Right I think I had better go to bed now as Toby still asleep so I will be regretting staying up when he is up in a few hours, lol!!

Poor Charlie, hope he is on the mend v soon xx

Nite nite xx

According to my HV. The comfort milk, already has the colief in it. ie. the lactose has already been broken down in the milk to make it easier to digest and therefore reduce colic. (So you wouldn't use colief and comfort milk together). I tried the comfort milk with Alex, but it didn't suit him. He does better with the colief drops and normal formula. Anything to keep me at the doctors and chemist picking up prescriptions :cool:. We also have the Dr Brown bottles, but I don't think they ever did anything for him, and just made mixing the formula harder, because you can't shake and have to stir. Lazy? me?.

Are you not using the comfort milk yet, because you are finishing up another box of formula?

Ah right thanks for that. lol you cant shake? I didnt know that lol

Yeah we had a tub of C&G open, probs just enough left for two more feeds of that

Congrats SM for passing

Som - done thanks

Get well soon Charlie!! Hope you are coping ok Caz. x

Sami - where does it say you should be aiming for all drinks in a cup from 6 months? It was my understanding that it is recommended you stop bottles from around 1 year old, and introduce a sippy cup at around 6 months with water to get them used to the different way of drinking. But I have never read that you should be giving up bottles at 6 months??

That's because I didn't write that

Snap! It was the first time we had tried her on Stage 2 jars, which I thought would be fine because everyone on here said there were hardly any lumps!

My apologies if you think I misquoted you. Can you answer my question then as to where "they" say you should be aiming for all drinks in a cup (which sounds like you should be aiming for giving up bottles)?
