sippy cup - when i first gave it to dd she just seemed to know what to do with it, although very messy about it
the straw cup was a work in progress but she has seemed to master this too now without half as much of a mess! during meals i give dd water or bm depending on how well she fed right before solids.
bumbo - we got dd a bumbo when she was about 3 months old. we used it all the time before and she seemed to LOVE it. now whenever we put her in it she seems to be trying to get out :shock: i think it is too limiting for her..although she still can't sit up on her own yet, i guess everything in due time!
solids - my lo took to solids REALLY well and never seemed to want to stop eating! i took the advice of my family (BIG mistake) who told me she'd stop when she was full and to keep feeding her...this coming from the people who said she'll just fall asleep when she's tired!..yeah right! anyway, talked to the paed yesterday and she said when starting out just give a heaping teaspoon morning and evening, and some veg's at lunch. (fruit in the am if u like too). that way not filling up on solids so much and still getting adequate breastmilk. unless weaning - feed bm or formula before solids...
bath time - for the first two months we used an infant tub but then switched to a regular tub with folded towels also - she loves to splash now!! i think it is her fave time of day!
the paed appt went really well! she is still only a small girl in comparison to all of your lo's..she's 15lbs 6oz - but is doing great for only being 5lbs 9oz at birth. paed said she is in 50 percentile for everything and is perfect!!!!!
always a big relief! she didn't get her shots again :x she said i have to get them from the family doctor.
does anyone have a lo with reflux on zantac?? have u spoken to your dr about when and how to wean them??
