Soda that was really sweet.... I am all teary now

Oh my I never saw this thread before..
I am a mum of a 3 month old, and my it still feels like that we brought Mikayla home yesturday next thing we will know she will be a yr old.. oh fun times ahead.. I so wish I could show you all a pic of here. I am going overborad with photos I think I am taking like 50 a day I am not obsessed though

I just love seeing my baby. Her 1st oficila smile was about a month ago, and she has already started teething, putting her tiny little finger on her bottle when she is being fed watching t.v, geting very clingy...
I could go on but enough for now, before I cry some more thinking about how small she is...

That's because it's new mikaylasmummy!

I've been introducing my little one to world of solid foods for the last couple of weeks (yes I know he's not yet six months but there was no way he was going to wait that long - he was getting increasinly grizzly and dissatisfied with the 'all milk' diet).

I was really scared about starting it, since his father is a massively fussy eater and I was worried it might somehow run in the family, however so far he's done so well and there's been nothing that he's really hated.

Surprising successes have included last night's supper: spinach mixed with banana (something my health visitor recommended) which was bright green in colour but tasted entirely like banana and not at all like spinach! As long as I can get some iron rich food in him somehow, I'm more than happy to keep disguising the taste of it with fruit for as long as necessary!

Had the discussion with my mom a few times about what I was like as a baby and she told me that the mixed nanas and spinach was my absolute favorite.

I will have to remember mixed banana and spinach. Someone else told me that I could crush up cereal (like chex) really finely and add it to his/her milk later on when they started getting fussy and that would help.

Ummm cherry, I think they mean baby food rice cereal can be added to a milk bottle later.

I dont know, he said chex. lol

I thought it was a little weird but I think he meant when they were much older than that, like 2 or so. He said he tried it with his son and it worked. But, like I said, that's just what I was told.

Yes, Lil's got it right. at some point it may be necessary as the baby won't be satisfied with just milk/formula. It also helps them to sleep through the night.

i did that with mine...the baby cereal, not the cereal cereal ... and when they were little little, not 2 years old little. my kids were off the ba by two, i was a ba-ba nazi. NO BA FOR YOU! anyway, just a pinch is all it takes to get that extra hour or two of sleep.


today at the grocers
the boy: santa is like super man!
me: yup! he's a good guy! plus he wears red!
the boy: noooooo...he's 'tend.

Rabbit, of course it's OK for Dads to post too! We are equal opportunists around here!!!

It's just that in general women tend to be more interested and most men would rather not hear about the harsh realities of childbirth etc!

Mikayla has been sleeping most of the day last night she went to sleep at about 8pm woke up at 4am for a change and feed went straight back to sleep, then woke at 11 same thing and went to sleep woke up at 6pm same thing and now she is asleep again...

Oh my is this normal for a 3 month old to sleep so much? I feel like I am missing out on spending her baby days with her

MM, I think babies do sleep a lot. Just wait till she turns 2-3. You'll be wishing she slept more

I go to the doctor on Friday for my checkup and my man is coming in town that day too. Woohoo!! He's going to sign the lease and then I guess it'll be mostly up to me to pack us up and have us moved

if i remember correctly, a 3 month old should sleep about 15 hours a day, give or take. that's not to say some days won't be more. my kids would eat like horses for a week, then sleep tons for a week and the next thing i knew, their clothes were too small. growth spurt. tell your pediatrician if you're concerned.

Someone please tell me these mood swings get better. I totally need a hug right now, but I need a chill pill first. lol

It started earlier with my cousin's girlfriend talking about how when SHE gets pregnant she's going to do this and she's going to do that and I should be doing this and blah blah fucking blah. I told her that when she got pregnant THEN she could come and give me advice and until then, I wouldn't be getting my advice from HER so she left and my cousin got mad.
Then I apologized and he got over, and we decided to play some PS2 and he kept beating me at our racing game... Which made me mad again

I realized what a twat I was being about the whole situation, and what I had to be thankful for, and my mood considerably changed for the better. But then I started thinking about my boyfriend and how often I DON'T get to see him, and how I'm going to have to basically swing the move without him and I broke down and started crying.

All the while my cousin is trying his best to console me without making it worse and getting more frustrated by the second so I left and drove around for a little while.....which was probably not the smartest move but it made me feel better...



Sorry for that, I'm sure it was hard to follow..

The thing that I can never understand is that people who do not have kids themselves do not understand what it's like yeah they may babysit for there friends but it's not the same as having them yourselves.
When my friends and even family do this to me I just politly agree, saying yes thankyou, good idea, but never do it, at the end of the day only you know what is right for you baby and no-one else. be strong things will get better.
Yoy have no reason to feel bad about how you spoke to your friend I have spoken to my mum like that and she kinda back off now she alot better with Mikayla and how I raise her..
Good Luck, if you even need to chat pm me
