MSE Parents Club Part 11

I started with Baby Rice, then mixing it with Veg puree mid afternoon. Then just veg/fruit puree on it’s own, or combinations mixed together. She has had baby porridge, fromage frais, and bread/cucumber/apple/banana to gum on. She hasn’t ever refused any of it, but only takes a tiny amount. But if she takes a tiny amount, she won’t take her milk. It seems to put her off her bottle, but there is no way she is taking enough food to make up for not taking her milk.

As she wasn’t really showing signs of being extra hungry, like waking up, and since we were going away at the weekend, and she had diarrhoea, I just decided to shelf it for a week to see how we got on. She doesn’t seem to have missed it!

Well looks like Holly needs a nap. I think I will join her for a change when my washing cycle finishes.
Oh, Next delivery! I got a sale slot so bought some stuff for Holly. Hmm, a jacket and some foam floor mats for playing on. Still loads to come another day then.

Redstar – I remember when you were last on the Pregnancy Thread due date list!

I hate being cryptic as I'm usually too dense to figure out what everyone means, so I hope I'm assuming the right thing here.

Fitz, glad to see you're okay! Sounds like that sort of thing is going around as weezl mentioned the D&V bug at her place, too (on the other thread, before anyone thinks they've gone suddenly blind & missed the post on here - sorry I WILL pass on that we're feeling neglected!!). DH passed on his stupid man flu to me but I feel slightly more human this morning after taking a nap while Finn's down.

csh, that piccie of K is sooooooooooooo cute. I just want to eat him up!!

Can't believe it's snowing Oop North!! I was just sad thinking yesterday that we still haven't switched off the heating & it's nearly April.

Need to run to the high road to post office & cash machine (not optional as I have a mystery shopping pizza delivery tonight that I need cash for) but seriously CBA. Hate living on top of a hill!

I know! I seemed to be last on the list for a very long time - but it's come round quickly enough....

It's finally stopped raining here, so I'm going to try and pop out and give Amelie some fresh air and a chance to run off some energy....

They have said that if I go into established labour, they will probably let me go naturally. To be honest, that prospect quite frightens me as I found Amelie's birth quite traumatic as she got quite distressed before they got her out, the midwives spent quite a lot of time umming and ahhing before panicing... didn't give me a lot of confidence.

How strange! You'd think if it was to be a section, then it'd be a section no matter when?!
At least this time round you'd prob feel more confident speaking up if you felt things weren't going well after having had previous problems
Fingers (and legs) crossed til the 13th then missy!

It isn't snowing here. I was quite excited about the possibility as I've never known it snow on 29th March before.

Well i'm kind of happy and fed up at the same time i just made bubs his porridge with fruit and made myself a lovely bacon sandwich. I went to feed bubs and put my plate down for a second the little !!!!!! snatched my sandwich and has quite happily munched his way through half of it. I'm happy as he is eating normal food very easily (he isnt quite 7 months yet) but fed up as i was looking forward to that sandwich. he is sat there looking really smug with a big grin on his face lol :-) x

Oh dear woke up this morning with a temp, smelly and weepy scar and nausea, that can't be good! It looks like its opening slightly on one side which is gross, the left side looks fine.
Rubbish.
At least I can show midwife shes due today.
Hope your all doing better than me.
