I have been trying to feed him finger foods, but I have been really apprehensive about the whole thing. I have posted something on this in the solids forum. I do feel a little better, but still unsure as to what types to offer. I have offered cottage cheese, Gerber stars and giving him his purreed dinner. He doesnt really do much other than play. I keep trying though.

He also gags anytime I give him something with a little more lumps and then refuses it. I thought for sure feeding solids was going to be the easy part of raising Gage

I am not sure if he is genuinly hunger or not. He was sleeping through at least half the time, but has been waking almost every night for the past 2 week. He does drink a full bottle even if it is REALLY diluted. I have watered down all night bottles before and he repeatedly woke, but that was a while ago. I will try it again tonight no matter what time it is. He may be thristy as I rarely ever give him water (unless it is hot out or practicing with the tippy) because he barely has room for any other food.
I think I would like to try and drop a bottle, but I am not sure he will make it through his nap (we are starting to recover from that struggle). I think I will try to follow you routine as best that I can lauren, and hope for the best.
Stacy, maybe I will go back to feeding after an hour as with dropping a bottle might (hopefully) make him more hungry.
estherofi20, I just want to thank you again for the crib blanket tip. Gage has not used the wedge for a nap in over a week

. We also have graduated from being one arm out for both naps and bed and have moved on to the sleeping bag. So far so good! Cross your fingers for us. Thanks a million! Oh Stacy, Gage took 2 long naps without that swaddle.

Ps. Off the subject..... Where the heck is my pm box? I get personal emails, but cant figure out how the check in on the BW site.
