He will be 5 months in the month of April (April 16th) , so that means he’s 5 months during the whole of April, plus he’s 20 weeks, right? So he’s like only a month off weaning anyways , get with it guyssss I only weaned him 4 weeks before he hit his 6 month
I can't work out if this comment is serious or sarcasm 😂

Can’t say some of the comments are any better- they can weaken your immune system sure but ‘wipe’ it? :)
That one made me eye roll too, I've got a baby with lots of allergies who had loads of antibiotics when they were tiny. But you know what they'd be without those treatments including antibiotics... dead.
I really dont think the "but your baby's ok!" justification of birth trauma is right but sometimes you have to count your blessings, something Louise is not doing.

She just loves a bit of trauma doesn’t she ‘he doesn’t like porridge because it probably reminds him of milk which he now has a bad relationship with’. Next she will be claiming he has ptsd and has panic attacks whenever a carton of milk passes by his direction 🙄. He is going to be raised with such emphasis on trauma and taking the smallest thing to the extreme. Poor LH will be insufferable I fear as an adult due to Mummy’s narcissism

It’s interesting that she’s labelled him as difficult, yet only posts incredibly edited, filtered and curated images that portray the exact opposite. At least some of the other parent influencers don’t do this.

I don’t understand why she isn’t changing his formula. It makes absolutely no sense at all! I’ve changed our 3 month olds 3 times and it’s not done any harm at all. She’s bloody irritating!

Surely if they've gone to a "private specialist"
Even if they did suggest weaning early... They would also suggest changing milk

A lot of these nanny influencers/sleep consultants recommend adding purées from four months to help sleep (Charmaine Mead/Louenna) so they’re probably the type of ‘expert’ that she’s consulted.🙄

This is what I thought too. They'll be leaving him to cry all night soon so he can learn how to 'self-settle'. She's already dropped the hint with the "not good at self settling" comment.

Exactly. Someone once said to me babies are easy toddlers are hard work. And it’s so true 😇
I 100% agree. Babies are a piece of cake, even my first born who had no end of feeding issues, reflux etc.
Toddlers LITERALLY do not give a single duck 😂

“I don’t want him to be a baby that has a sweet tooth” hun he hasn’t got any sort of tooth because a) he’s not teething b) he’s not ready for weaning c) you’re delusional
Lol I look forward to the day when little Leo darling Is having the mother of all tantrums and she tries to bribe him with kale and granola. Then again she will prob just give him to the (secret) nanny.

My 18 and 20 year old had an argument last night over which sofa they were going to sit on, Louise wont make it till Leo is that age at this rate ;-)
My 7 and 4 year old are currently fighting everyday over who gets to open the front door 😂

If she thinks he’s difficult now, just wait until he’s a toddler 🤣
She has no idea 🤣🤣🤣
Hea gonna weigh a lot more than 8kg as well so get prepared Louise.

I follow Kait Bovard and Ellie Page on Instagram. They have terrible illnesses and babies but are so happy and grateful. Louise should go spend time with people like that and realise how lucky she is.

The formula thing is hilarious. I’ve worked with a formula company in the past. Aptimel and Cow and Gate are owned by Danone. The only reason they have them as separate brands is to appeal to a different demographic. There’s very little difference in the product. Easy to switch. And surely you’d try any change if you thought it would offer some relief?!

She had a net loss of followers yesterday which doesn’t happen often so I think her latest post didn’t go down well at all!

He should still have at least another 7-8 months on formula, it’s lazy to not switch it. If feeding him his current formula is that difficult and he has ‘negative associations’ to milk that makes even having porridge difficult for him 🙄 then why wouldn’t you? Oh because it’s all bull!

He doesn’t like porridge because he has a blatant thrust reflex still. Mine has only just started to be able to tolerate the texture and he’s (genuinely) 8 months old.

seems unusual this wouldn’t be the first port of call!

Also she knows damn rightly she’s talking a pile of 💩 as she mentions his weight and how chunky he is!

There is just no justification for them weaning at four months, he’s not emaciated the milk is clearly going down and making an impact of his growth… If he has reflux it seems bonkers to skip trying different milks and jump straight to solids!!!

I firmly believe they’ve had a backlash and this is just justification for their terrible parenting.

also, funny how they haven’t mentioned teething now… All the people on here who are saying it’s probably reflux had a point! Whilst Ryan was abusive and threatening to boots staff Who wouldn’t give him benzocaine products to drug his baby with!

Come here to see the replys to her last post. Does she expect anyone to believe it 🤔 I refuse to believe she's been advised to NOT try a change of milk before weaning him 2 months early, also you would trial meds first to possibly, that better than weaning at 4 months! No excuses. Trying to redeem herself with this bull justification, not worked has it!

Why on Earth wouldn't you switch formula he's still so little. I'd try a dairy free milk, it sounds like he has reflux and possibly cows milk allergy. She is honestly so thick. And what's with 'pray tell'

My 5 month old has awful reflux. He is sick after feeding and then 1 and 2 hours later. But he's putting on weight and thriving. I was breastfeeding and this was happening, we moved to combination feed and it continued. We have tried every formula and been fully supported and advised by the doctor and health visitor. One doctor suggested weaning early at 4 months but the reflux continued so our other doctor said to stop and that it wasn't actually a good recommendation. Leo is clearly thriving too if he is 8kg (definitely shouldn't be in size 2 nappies) and having wet nappies if Ryan is stocking up on lots of nappies and wipes.

Side note: I'm hoping that was an old video Ryan took and they actually can read and have Leo in the right nappies.

I too have Crohns and my doctor said a lot of early weaning can be linked to bowel issues so to be careful. You think with Louise having IBD too, she'd be more careful.

I imagine she's fed up of dealing with sick and washing (as am I but that's life as a parent!) and wants the reflux "fixing".

Although I imagine she isn't doing any washing or much feeding as she is too self obsessed with her trauma to be a mother.
