I just get confused that he can easily eat 2oz at each feed during the day but come night time he only has 1oz lol

I know you can't really compare babies and adults but we eat more in the day than in the night so maybe it is similar?

i know exactly what you mean maz about the toilet training!
Katie is pretty much fully there, except at night times, but a couple days last week, (in the evenings) she had accidents - but i dont think they were actual accidents if u get me!?? She was watching "Up", and i tink she just got engrossed, but then she proceeded to do it another 3 times before bed that night! i was very frustrated, and it is so hard not to shout or tell off.
I started making more of a fuss about her using the potty/toilet again and she seemed to go back without accidents fine then....who knows what goes through their little mind!!

he just had another one as OH was runny bath... think a couple of times he was ingrossed in ITNG so very similiar to katie...

Nat - Jack is almost 7 months and today he has had the following

8.30am - bowl of weetabix made with milk & fromage frais (about 20 spoonfuls)
10am - 7oz bottle
12.45pm - scrambled egg and half a piece of toast
4pm - 6oz bottle
6pm - fruity chicken curry & rice - he had a piece of chicken about an inch square cut into bitesize pieces with about a fistful of rice (his fist not mine!)
7.30pm - 7oz C&G Good night milk

Night feeds - I used to turn the light on to go down and warm bottle up but we ended up for ages so I started doing it by torchlight and he went down alot easier.

csh- sorry your manager is being a pita at the moment. It's hard, isn't it. I asked my manager if there were any other managers in our company who worked part time and she said she'd never known of any, but that doesn't mean that I can't so I am still hopeful.

Its really ruining the last 5 :eek: weeks I have off cos he just won't give a straight answer.
I've waited a fortnight for a phone call and I'm more confused than I was before! I said to OH 'I've got a 13yr old so can speak idiot but have no clue as to what he just said!'
Will go into the shop tomorrow after swimming, see my direct manager and get her to translate, I'm assumimg shes in the loop too although has also been evasive!


My 5.5mth old eats lots compared to everyone else Hes not huge so I don't know where he puts it!

6oz bottle first thing
Breakfast Porridge with fruit pot mixed in (same amount of porridge)

5oz bottle mid morning

Lunch: Whole jar of something and half a rusk or some banana or toast to play with

5oz bottle 3pm

Tea: whole jar of something, some fruit pouch or a yoghurt and something to hold and gum

6oz bottle and bed.

He only dropped a 5oz breakfast bottle this week, so has more porridge now.

I've been trying to take photos of his teeth but hes not playing!

CSH - Sorry they are ruining it for you! It's bad enough thinking about going back!

And your list reminded me that Jack also had ......................
half a banana after his lunch
a fruit pot after his curry

I tend to offer him ricecakes or Organix snacks as well in the afternoon if he's a bit shouty!

He also drinks a whole beaker of water throughout the day.

Happy birthday GISI (I kept forgetting)

ETA - what jars is K having?

can anyone tell me how much there 7/8 month olds eat??

It varies hugely..

Most of mine were not on food until about 10-11 months

DD2 however would have *takes a deep breath*

2 weetabix with to a mush
a slice of toast
2 small yoghurts
a banana

Then I'd dress her while she screamed.. then she would have a boob feed.. That was breakfast!!!!!!!!

Lunch she'd have pasta and cheese or mushed veggies followed by a fruit puree.. then boob

Dinner.. whatever we were having.. anything from sunday dinner to potato waffles and sausages.. followed by dessert and juice

Bedtime.. 2 rusk or 2 weetabix and boob

She is almost 13 and still loves her food!

CSH I do love you name it reminds of the joke.. What do you call a fish with no eyes?

FSH!!

My DD has been at the hairdresser today getting it dyed black and hot pink! Shes a bit mad lol Its totally cool looking tho.

Shes into this emo type thing called 'scene', I'm old and don't get it but its like big multicoloured hair and funky make up and that. I never had the confidence to do anything when I was that age so chuffed she has!

Was so funny last night, me and OH were watching MJ's This Is It, and I started laughing cos MJ had skintight red jeans on and I said look DD's jeans lol

Sorry I should have said Elliot loves being tucked in, cos he was swaddled in SCBU. I just wondered if we kept him tucked in a blanket at night while feeding if it would help him realise its sleep time?

Ah well ok cool 2oz isnt bad then

I just get confused that he can easily eat 2oz at each feed during the day but come night time he only has 1oz lol

Don;t know how much he's having cos we're BF bt Alfie feeds a lot better during the day than at night (and goes longer between feeds in the day)
