Evening all and yaaay for Rhys constant progress Elle, it's so great to hear about

I like this constant feeding-in-pool Tia, but is it not a bit cold? Especially in grim, icy Scotland? I bought the paddling pool Sami linked the other day (thanks Sami!) and just waiting for it to arrive for the carnage to begin.

Poor Caz, insomnia is such a pain is it worth seeing someone about it? It's so frustrating.

We've had quite a nice day, all 3 of us out at farmer's market (complete with morris dancers!) then park in the morning; then Pizza Express for supper just now. Made slightly more stressful by OH's morning sickness dry heaving in restaurants never well-received! Also I felt v stupid for printing out a voucher then leaving it on the sofa, costing me nine quid or something

Tia - how much milk is Amber on now?

J dropped another bottle today so we are just on one in the morning and one at night

These lads on BGT are good!

K dropped a bottle this week too, down to 4 now for fat pie. I've stopped the Goodnight milk as I think it was sitting to heavy on his tum and he wasn't settling as well and a bit greety which hes never been before.

Hes in his own room :eek: 3rd night tonight, all going well

Caz El is the same with sand she hates going to parks with sand all round the play stuff as she won't go and stands shoutin mummy until you pick her up and take her to the next thing she want to go on. She is slowly getting better as we take the dog to the beach alot.

I was waiting to see what people portion size was before I said but thats what he eats after his puree tea and pudding I'm never sure he'll get enough if hes feeding himself bits and pieces so he gets his tea then eats again with us!
I honestly don't know where he puts it all cos hes not overly big or heavy, followed the 50th bang on from birth for weight, hes quite tall tho

Go Jack!! I missed his pulling himself up the first time round.

And go Benjamin charming the elderly :rotfl:

The Goodnight milk says to only give 6ozs but I think he would drink more - if he's dropping a bottle I might try him on normal follow on and give him 8oz tomorrow night and maybe give him a bit of porridge 30mins before.

Ooo forgot he was in his own room - glad it's going OK.

Caz, yep, beer. Oh is your neck still sore? Mine is, I need a massage. We should go to a spa. One with hot naked men (so I can point at the willies and giggle)

You can only do that if you invite all the other scots lassies I promise to giggle like an uncontrollable teenager too!!!

Just wanting opinions on what other peeps term a portion size for a baby? For instance when K is having Mac cheese, how many pieces is a meal? Big people pieces not baby mac?
Also I gave him sausage and chips off my plate tonight, halfed a sausage widthways then lengthways so like a big finger (1/4 of a sausage) and he ate about 3/4 of it and 3 chips. Would folk call that a dinner? I'd call that just trying a taste? I think I'm expecting too much lol

I'd count a portion as however much they choose to eat in a meal. How much Alice eats can vary wildly. She has been known to eat at breakfast as much as she sometimes eats in a whole day.
