whoo-hoo! Thrush is all gone after just a few days of using that oral gel :)

Thanks for the info on your FB page, I found the video interviews very interesting and read things whenever I get a chance.

You can stay away from glycerine overall as a bit of bm residue on the tongue can do no harm as it contains good bacteria and will go away on its own.

You don't have to clean the mouth on the inside.

You can send me a private message with your email address and if you are on fb, you can like my link as I try and post every single day :-)

We all learn......every single day and when you are a 1st time mommy, you just go with my the professionals say or family because what do you know hahaha that is why I like to research everything now

Great, thanks, will stay away from the glycerine - is it good to use at any time or should you just not use it?

Would be great if you can send me that information, sure it makes for good advice. This is my first baby so I am very much still learing what goes for what with him. I am more than willing to see what the information says and if its best for him will go that direction.

Thanks again!

If it is thrush, then I would avoid the glycerine to clean his mouth as glycerine is sugar & thrush thrives on sugar.

It spreads quite quickly so just check the insides of the cheeks, tongue & even inner lip

Regarding solids.........there are a lot of links I can send you why you should hold off until lo is 6months :-)

I don't like telling people what to do(I would rather just give them advice & proof of articles & let them decide for themselves) but I research a lot of things regarding children/parenting etc as I never really did that with my 1st child & also made the mistakes of formula feeding her, starting too early on solids because what doctors say to you etc. so I wanted to learn as much when I expected my 2nd child.

He is 16months now, still bf him, started solids - slowly when he hit 6months but I let him guide me. Never gave him rice cereal as those cereals are all just sugar based and contains no nutrition.

If you'd like, I can email you some links regarding the virgin gut of a baby and links on rice cereal etc and then you can decide if you want to continue giving solids or hold off. I also have a fb page where I post a lot of links about various topics - Researched and Informed Parenting

Just remember, a nurse, clinic sister, doctor, paediatrician etc can't give advice of nutrition as they are not specialists in that field and give more wrong advice than right. I know a lot of people will always say you should start so early because baby is hungry, isn't picking up enough etc etc but remember, if he is more hungrier, than he will bf more often. I don't watch the clock with my son, I demand feed him till this day as bm digests very quickly.

Okay, okay, sorry for the long essay hahahaha
