Five month old feeding snags

[frasersmummy]

Thanks for your advice. I know he'll always have enough to keep him going and i've chilled out lots since talking to you all.  The only problem now is how to clean the carpet!!! He's still not eating as much as he did but is happy and very lively so that's all that matter i guess.

Hey fran, glad you are rolling with the punches, I am working on the same thing. Just giving her the milk if she does not want the food. ( Lunch was another disaster) It is difficult for me as I am not a patient person and get frustrated easily but I am trying and I certainly do not want to turn her into someone who hates mealtime so I will try to be better.

I am so glad I found another mummy in Englan who I can chat to and not feel judged etc.........., it must be so hard for you with your hubby away a lot, I am always here if you need a sympathetic ear, you have been so great to me over the last few days, I hope I can repay the favour.

i'm not patient either!  when i'm on my own everything seems so much harder. i am only a beginner though so decided to cut myself some slack!! Were i live everyone has perfect houses babies and husbands and no-one ever admits to having problems - i think i must give them the impression of being totally clueless cos i talk about them!  i can't be that bad cos i've got a gorgeous happy babe who's thriving despite not eating!!! don't be too hard on yourself you're doing a great job.
