    Hi, glad you had a good holiday, it was Malta wasnt it? How did Gabe get on with flying?
    Nathans 2nd tooth has come through today, he's been a bit of a bugger up until the 1st coming through so its nice to know why.
    Gabe will start rolling etc before you know it. My mum says my brother would do things once, then couldnt be bothered to do it again! I had him weighed today (Nathan, not my brother. He's 35 and wont fit on the scales!). His weight gain has finally slowed a bit, despite weaning him. he's now 19lb 9oz (so still big though).
    Do you know what Gabe weighs now?

    No idea what he weighs...he was 17lb 13oz 3 weeks ago so I'm guessing he's around 18lb + by now!
    He was great with the flying, didnt even notice the take off and landing. He was having lots of fun kicking the seat in front of him! We went for a wedding and he blew really loud raspberries while they were saying the vows - very embarrassing - and then sicked up ALL OVER my oh's suit.
    Hes gone to bed at 6.30 tonight and only had 3oz so I REALLY hope he sleeps thru cos I've been up since 5 and am knackered.
    How does Nathan look with his teeth? Me & oh were saying that we cant imagine Gabe with teeth...we're worried they'll make him look weird!!!

    Only the 1st tooth really notices at the moment. It looks really sweet but we are learning to be more careful with our Hands/fingers as it is really sharp!!
    I saw HV today and was really pleased that she was supportive about having started weaning. He's on 2 meals now and will eat anything. how is Gabes weaning going? I'm really looking forward to introducing some meat.

    Its going really well ...he's been on jars mainly cos of the holiday. He prefers savoury foods to sweet! I tried him with yogurt and he hated it. He likes rusks but would prefer savoury foods any day.
    Have you tried Nathan on finger foods? He might be ready if he has teeth. I gave Gabe a very soggy bit of toast in Malta but he wasnt impressed lol.
    Gabe is on 2 meals but I may introduce 3 soon. He has 4 bottles a day too but has gone from 10oz to 7/8oz.

    Nathan does try to chew his porridge, lol. he dosent like his purees really smooth so I was thinking about finger foods soon. My hv suggested cooked carrot or broccolli, then cheese when he's a bit older. I think I'll just get a bit more texture into his meals first though just to check he does keep chewing.
    He has 4 bottles of 7oz too, not sure about 3rd meal as he is sleeping so well on 2 but will bring it in at 6mths if I havent by then.
    I am really enjoying weaning, but Nathan jst eats whats in front of him and hasnt showed any reaction to different flavours yet. Although he does hum sometimes when he's eating which I think he does because he enjoys it!

    Gabe does that too, it sounds like "yummmm" but that may be my imagination! He says something that sounds like "Hello" all the time (well, more like elllooooowwww), I think I'm cracking up.
    Gabes not sleeping too well - in fact he woke up about 1/2 hour ago for a bottle! And hes been waking at 6 every morning....

    Wierd you should say that. I read the last post this morning and after sleeping really well for ages nathan woke 4 times last night! He seemed quite happy but I cant sleep knowing he's awake.
    I think he might have been cold as we dont normally have heating on overnight but I dont think his grobag is enough when temp drops so low so might have to use heating afterall.
    Maybe Gabe is ready for his 3rd meal now if he's waking earlier.
