The dietician told me to make the formula up as normal, then add the nesquik in after. Ideally use as little nesquik as possible in order to make them drink it. Then once they’re used to it start reducing the amount of nesquik til they’re just having formula. I never actually did it though so I don’t know if that helps.

Not baby related, but we're finally watching The Mandalorian and omg @Babyyoda88
Kitten hasn't slept in her own bed for months
We made her her own safe sleep space with a feeding pillow (making sure she can't roll into it and suffocate), so she slept pretty "independently", but in our bed. But now that I stopped feeding her at night, we're back to co-sleeping.
She's had one good night and that's it
I can't wait for her to sleep better.
I know right!! Be careful you’ll end up wanting to conceive again hahah. Baby Yoda is the cutest.
We didn't even do anything on Ivy's birthday this year because it was a Saturday. And I refuse to go anywhere on weekendsYeah it is hard! I know with my eldest we went swimming, and my second I just looked up in my photos and we went to the Christmas market
We did go to the space museum a few days later though
Does 18oz of milk and a sachet and a half of purée sound enough to sustain her for the day? We’re having full on bottle refusal
you do great work under pressure!On this note if anyone has any thread title suggestions please post them as I’ve had to make up the last few on the spot
im sure I saw something during the thread I thought would be good. Must have a look….
Baby tray bakes
Are you breastfeeding? My baby has similar just now & it seems to be an oat allergy, I changed to oat milk & also bought her oat moisturiser because it had started to get bad from me starting the milk then I covered her in the oat moisturiser & the next day her skin was so bad. It’s clearing up but I have to phone the GP on Fri if it’s still there to get a steroid cream. I’ve also to stop bathing her every night, I’ve to do every 2nd or 3rd & do a weekly milk bath if I can but right now I’ve not to bath her for a whole week to help the natural oils on her skin clear it up,
If she's happy, then yesDoes 18oz of milk and a sachet and a half of purée sound enough to sustain her for the day? We’re having full on bottle refusal
Everleigh went into full on bottle refusal apart from her nighttime one from around 5 months!
It was frustrating!
Yeah that’s what we’re having. She seems happy apart from the windIf she's happy, then yes

Guess she just prefers solids. I’ve giving her breakfast and dinner, maybe I should introduce a 3rd next week Sneak some more milk in to it that way.Funny how she’s 5 months as well. Is this the 5 month terrorist phase
Cow and gate do some fruity porridge. I don't know of its any good for them but Everleigh loved it for breakfast every morning. Plus you make it up with their own milkYeah that’s what we’re having. She seems happy apart from the wind

When we did massage, the lady suggested a list of natural oils like grapeseed and almond. No veg or olive oil - ‘they’ll smell like a bloody chippy’ is what she said
I had a bottle of that my little coco oil that my sister got me and she turned her nose up because it wasn’t ‘natural’ Like I’ve got the time or energy to traipse around looking for organic jojoba oil. Piss off janet

I’ll look it up thanks xcan you just use normal porridge oats with her formula? You could blitz the oats up to make it smoother before you make it.Ah I’m struggling to find porridge that doesn’t contain milk or traces of milk
Also I remember years ago, before I had kids, my aunt would stir high fat/calorie things in to the purees she made eg cream cheese. Maybe you can find some df alternatives that would add in the calories for her?
Yeah my mum suggested ready brek too. To honest this cmpa early weaning just been dropped on me so
I’m still finding my feet with it all
Oh yes ready break is so smooth, my FIL used to eat it like slop, pretty much how you’d feed a little babyYeah my mum suggested ready brek too. To honest this cmpa early weaning just been dropped on me so
I’m still finding my feet with it all
try not to worry too much, she’s 5 and a half months isn’t she? So it’s not too early for weaning and she will very soon be able to handle "normal" foods
I know me too, hoping it passes quickly for both of us.I know how you feel, my almost 5 year old can be just so rude to me it makes me feel like packing a bag!! Trying to hold on to the fact its just a phase ( I hopeotherwise im leaving the country)
She was a lot better once she got home but still it hurts
