yup. my baby is able to flip in his sleep. One moment he would be sleeping on his back, he next moment, he will be sleeping on his belly. Maybe its too hot for him.

Realize that he learn a habit lately. Just prior to sleeping, his will turn his head from side-to-side if he sleeps on his belly. Maybe trying to find his sleep spot. haha.

I might stop express milk at 6 months too. My freezer is currently still overflowing with milk, should b able to last him another 1-2months.

As for the menses, there is no strict guide if b/f will stop it from coming, it just varies from mother to mother.

I just stopped expressing BM 2 days back and my engorgement is killing me! Now still very engorged, cant sleep properly at night.

and i started to have monthly menses when baby was 4mths even though i was b/f full time so not a concern actually.

finally, my boy had been drooling the past 2 months and still no sign of teething...so dunno where all the drools coming from...

Mummies,

have you started on solids?

I started on puree broccoli on last sunday (7th Mar). My son does not really like it too much. Then this Tuesday (9th Mar) decided to give him try rice cereal. Still not too bad. I guess he prefers the softness of the cereal more than the blender broccoli

my son still alittle resistant to eat solid food (cereal), in the end no choice got to entice him with the TV. haiz.

currently we are only giving him about 1.1/2 tablespoon, that will take me about 20~30mins to feed him.

how do u mum cope with feeding solid food for your baby?

My baby loves rice cereal! Just started to give him 2 tablespoons and he keeps opening his mouth that he wants more hahaaa...

Hmm... may i know how to make puree for baby? use blender? So far I've only tried one type, which is the cereal, would want to try more varieties for my baby...

u mean how long she takes? same same ard 20-30mins..
she puts Kayla on the bumbo chair and slowly let her lick the spoon...:tlaugh:
Is easy cos DD loves the cereal...

 

[newbie2009]

you mean how long she takes? same same around 20-30mins..

Is easy cos dear daughter loves the cereal...

I too did put my son on the bumbo chair. If he is in the mood, he can sit there for a long time to let u feed him, else he will straighten his back and anchor his leg on the floor in the effort to free himself from the chair, then the whole feeding process is going to get very long and messy.

are we allow to mix vege or fruits into the rice cereal?

Fed my baby with banana last night, he gave that irky look and then vomitted out the banana together with the milk he drank, scary...

What other food and fruits can we feed baby with?

Is it past the 4 days rule yet? maybe you can try new food?
If he really dont like, take a break for 2-3 days then try again.
Also are you feeding before or after milk? I feed after milk but will reduce it a little so she is willing to finish the cereal..

yup its been past the 4 days le. Maybe its time to give my boy new food le. Tried giving him apple juice too. He simply detest it. Haiz.

I will feed before his milk. Might b due to the fact that he is too hungry.

How's the texture of the cereal you made? is it too runny? the first time i fed my baby with cereal also he didn't like it, i presume it was too runny.. then i make it thicker, now he likes it so much...

Also the temperature of the fluid mixed with the cereal need to be a bit warmer, so that the final product will be not too cold for baby to eat...
