November / December 2012 Babies

Yeah, B's turning 4 on 31 July and A will be 7 months on the 15th so they are very close yes!

Awwww, Marijke they are absolutely adorable...

Seems both our kids are the same ages, my eldest was 4 in January, 23 and the baby was 7 months on saturday, which means she was born on 8 November.

Hey everyone,

Good to see some of you back!

Little A is almost 7 months, 3 more days. She's also still breastfed even though I've had all the struggles in the world and have threatened to quit 2 or 3 times but pushed through again. She's also a blw baby and only really does one meal a day, with a snack here or there throughout the day.

Bianca (almost 4) and her sister Anja

Well Zahraa goes to school, half day and Aqeelah goes to my mother and when Zahraa comes from school she joins her sister and all her other cousins at Ma's house which they all LOVE!!!

That photo of aqeelah wearing the big bow is too nunu. She's already being invited to parties with her big sister? Who is looking after your kids while you at work?

Momtoc, are you still living with your MIL? What happened to the spooky visitor?

Well my LG's name is Aqeelah - I like to call her Qeelajie, lol...She is such a happy smiley baby, people look at her in the shop then she will laugh already...

Aqeelah has been eating porridge in the mornings from about 5 months, and has been loving it, then I slowly started giving her porridge for supper too and then about just after 6 months I started making her my own puree'd butternut and carrots, and she loves it, she even been eating some vegetable soup too, that 1 loves to eat...Unfortunately my milk supply didnt satisfiy her and she quickly stopped, feel very depressed about that and feel like she is loosing out on it, as my eldest bf till she was a year and 8 months, but I guess there is nothing I can do and hope that the next 1 will bf longer than 3 months ...

She is not sitting on her own as yet but she is getting there, I think about another week or 2 and she will get it right..she doesnt mind tummy time at all, if she gets tired of the position she just turns around herself to her back...Big sister loves her too bits as well, wants to do everything for her and she is very protective over her baby sister...She sleeps most nights right through in her own cot, if she does wake up she just drinks a little and ends up sleeping next to me and every morning when she wakes up she wakes up very quietly and when she see's someone - me or DH, or big sister, her face just lights up and smiles open mouth!!!

She was 7 months on saturday..How old is everyone's LO's?

Morning ladies

Nice to hear from you again BoomBoom. Your kids are absolutely adorable!!!

Ms_S, thanks so much! He was so cute during the photoshoot.


AFM, back at work sucks! It's been a month already but can't get into the swing of things. My mother is looking after Jayden for a few months & then we'll take it from there. He is such a happy little man, forever smiling! I'm still bf and loving every min of it. He has slowly started eating solids. Doing BLW in slow ways but he also gets his cereal in the morning & then something at lunch. Dinner times are a bit rough to find a balance there as he usually wants to sleep that time & when he wakes up, it's too late to feed him but he is more than happy getting his milkies. He is 6 months & 1 week now. He sits unsupported, transfers his toys from one hand to another, rolls over every now & then(he prefers to sit haha), can stand firmly while holding him up, when on tummy, he'll turn himself around....so 1 min he'll be facing a certain direction & when you look again, he's faces another His sister can do the silliest thing to get him to laugh........so precious. We mostly co-sleep & he still feeds almost every 2 - 3 hours which I have no complains about. I just love feeding him on demand. Well, that is us in a nutshell for now!
