January 2010 mommies

Yup I also require back-up sometimes..especially now that there is two of them..dunno how you cope with a house full of boys...at least you dont have it as bad as a friend of my MIL-she has 4 kids...all boys!

Thanks, please send it me. He is now almost 4 months so I will go buy some purity and see what he does with it. He likes the cereal but not that much.

Annalize - you make us jelous and broody with your little girl! I seriously also want a girl that I can dress up and pierce the ears and play house with. I love my boys too bits but I need another female in the house to back me up when the men want to take over!

Annalize your girl sounds so cute...not helping me being less broody...also want a little girl.
Wish this was my last exam, still have so far to go *sigh*, need another 20 or so modules to complete my degree
Tristan has completely stopped breastfeeding (I just express now, but have so little milk that I can only get like 100ml once a day)so thank goodness for S26 otherwise I dont know what I would have done.
m2b the pead told me that previously they said that babies only had to start on solids at 6 months, but new research shows that it is better to start introducing solids at about 3-4 months, it actually lessens the chances that he will get food allergies.

He said to start with rice cereqal late afternoon ( I do Mr T's at about 5) so that it is not his last feed of the day at about 3 months.

At 4 months start introducing a vegetable in the afternoon (12 ish) but give one vegetable for a whole week to make sure they get used to the taste before switching to something else (so say carrots for the whole week)

I have a list somewhere that he gave me, will look for it and send it to you?

M2B, that's great news!

I wish I could get rid of this muffin top haning over my pants! I've lost weight nicely after C was born & even dropped 2 sizes, but the more weight I loose, the more flabby my tummy seems to get. I guess I will have to start exercising... where to get the time & I just don't feel like exercising. Wish there was an easier way!

Bismarck is also going for his injections tomorrow. He missed a month because he had ear infection so now Im behind with it. Hope he isnt going to be miserable.

I gave him some cerial and he only ate a bit but wasnt that into it. He is almost 4 months, when can I start giving him some purity or liquidated veggies? Drinking Nan the whole time cant be lekker! He is just too cute for words and i hope we will have a girl next time around! But if its another boy then I wont try again, Ill just love my 3 boys then!

Welcome back Angel!
Juanita, you must post some pics of Leandi's earings. Want to take Lihani to get her ears pierced as well. Think I must also get some of the emla cream. How long before do you have to put it on?
Good luck with the last few days at your old job. You are really lucky to be working with DH & to be seeing more of your lg.
She is a real little lady. Love jewellery & dressing up. Whenever I get her new clothes that she has to fit, she always tells me 'mamma pas, mamma passs!'. Over the weekend I wanted her to wear a dress that she only put on once or twice & told her before it doesn't fit anymore she has to wear it at least once more & she told me NO! & took opened the drawer & tooks out a pair of jeans!
Christiaan is doing really well. He is a very happy baby & not really fussy. Has to get him weighed today or tomorrow. Think he now weighs like 8.5kg? He is a really big boy! He still loves mommies (.)(.) & prefer not to have a silicon nipple in his mouth! But he has to take the bottle at Ouma. He doesn't like to sit or lay down anymore. He kicks his little legs straight & only want to stand up. Don't think he will be a fussy eater. Lihani was a really fussy eater & still is. She loves fruit & for the past week - WORSIES! She goes through these stages that she prefers to eat the same thing like spaghetti for a week & then not for the next month does she wants to eat it again. But you can give a fruit or raisins every day & she is happy.
Lolli, good luck with the studying. Is this your last exam?

that is so exciting M2b I am really missing being preggies today...dunno why...I can barely cope with the one baby I have, must be my hormones playing tricks on me
