Missytq, your lg is totally gorgeous!

Noster, thanks for your reply.
Should I give her a milk feed at 7pm and then no more milk after that? I tend to pop a bottle in her mouth everytime she fusses, which im thinking now is totally wrong. she just drinks a few mls then keeps quiet. so i guess you are right. its thirst not hunger.

Should i not give her her midnight milk bottle anymore? I thought that i should try the water/rooibos bottle after 6 months.

My lg is just over 7kg, so i know she is gaining weight nicely.

Good morning Ladies,

What beautiful babies we all have.

As for yoghurt, I give Jamie Danino, as this is the only one her really likes. He loves strawberry flavour and the apple one as well.

My little guy eats me out of house and home. Started giving him things off my plate as well. Not that much just something to nibble on, he is now almost 7 months, can't believe time flew so fast.

As for cream cheese, haven't tried yet. Will wait a bit longer. The nurse said only from 9 months.

As for the milk bottle, he really hates milk. He only has two bottles a day if I am lucky, I really don't give him tea or water as he already doesn't want milk. And I am scared if I give him tea or water he then really won't want the milk. Funny little man.

Have a great day.

By the way I am depressed as well. But mine has to do with work and a lot of stress. As for Jamie prefering daddy, thank Goodness... Jamie goes through stages, then he just wants me then he just wants his dad and then other times he just wants his godmother. Baby change and one day they prefer something over the over. Like Jamie hated baby marrow and now loves it.

Hi ladies!

can we get some updated pics?
Most of our babies is almost turning 6 months!

Here is Krisi now

She is turning 6 months on 3 Dec

My LG was born 2.4kg and at 4.5months she was 5.4kg, tiny baba still.

She's been sleeping through the night for a while now. Its great to get that sleep......

She also doesnt like the baby rooibos that I tried, will try the Purity one.

Anyone finds the unsweeted yoghurt, please let us know.

Mrs DD,

It is a week now that I Chloé sleeps through without waking. Three weeks ago when she started fussing during the evening I did not give her a bottle, but instead gave her a little rooibos/Fortris from Purity. They get thirsty (just like we do sometimes). And she went straight back to sleep. A week ago she just decided that it is not worth her while to wake up for water (practically) and now sleeps through. Maybe try this?

As for yoghurt, when I gave her yoghurt, I actually gave her fruit yoghurt. It was low fat and sweetened (bad me) if I remember correctly, but hey, try to find unsweetened yoghurt - it is difficult. I will give her any yoghurt when I start giving her yoghurt again. My friend gave her LG any yoghurt and she is a beautiful LG today.

Hi Ladies,

Sorry to butt in, but i would also like to know what yogurt you are giving?
Also cream cheese for babies?
I havent seen this anywhere.

you guys are so lucky, my lg just turned 5 months and is still getting up for her midnight feed.
started thinking its never going to stop.

Hi Giggles,

The paed told me to only start giving her yoghurt at 6 months. And then it mustn't be sweetened. I haven't looked for yoghurt since then, but will start again soon as she loves yoghurt. I actually think any yoghurt is fine, but that is just me. What yoghurt do you give your LG?

So how big are your LG now? Chloé was born at 3.98kg and is now just over the 9kg, but she is 74cm tall. So a big girl. I also had to move her to her front facing car seat as she can't fit into her back facing car seat anymore.
