Our little boy, now nearly 10 months old, can't stop sticking his tongue out or carrying toys etc in his mouth. Has anyone else experienced this and if so do you know if it is just a phase or not? :?

Without wanting to sound like your GP it sounds like you're doing great - surely the most important thing is that your little one seems happy with what is happening. My little boy is almost 7 months and the only thing I really worried about was whether he was getting a good balance of foods...

Thanks for all your advice, I feel much better now. I was just concerned because the HV etc said all frozen food should be defrosted and thoroughly heated through before serving even if it's fruit and veg.

How do you guys cope with going out and weaning your little ones....at home I obviously heat up the food and then leave to cool before letting my little one loose on it......but I am a bit flummoxed as to what to do if we go out for the day? :? Also what is everyone else doing with regards to...

Thanks guys....I guess I'll just have to hope they come through quickly, we've had a couple of real bouts of pain and I hate seeing him like that....I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the worst will be over by the weekend??!! :pray: For those with babes already sporting more than just one...

I was just wondering how long it takes for a tooth to finally come through once you can see it under the gum line...........my little boy has been pretty upset for the last 5 days or so but the tooth is not fully through but I have no idea how much longer he will have to put up with the...

Our little one is usually pretty good at home and is fairly easy to settle if he gets cranky but if I take him out he will fall asleep but then on waking just starts crying and nothing really seems to soothe him..........it's making me a little tense about going out and wondered if there is...

Thanks guys - always good to know you're not alone!.........by the way how did you get onto a 4 hour routine!!! that's fantastic !!! we're on about every 3 hour except he seems to get hungrier in the evenings ( is this normal?) but I can't imagine stretching it to 4 hours - I only dream of such...

I have been expressing milk during the day in the hope that OH can give the last feed of the day.........however it never seems to satisfy our baby even though he doesn't finish the bottle........he does drink it down quickly but never settles properly and is asking for food again quite soon...

Had scan yesterday and the little one is fine, just hiding.......very average size etc so that's a relief.......determined to relax and enjoy the rest of my pregnancy before the real work begins! :D

Thanks for the note I'm hoping it's because I'm small too!..........due on 28 January, can't believe how close it is but also getting quite anxious (mind you I have been anxious throughout)..........how are you doing?

Can anyone reassure me? I went for my 32 week check up last week and my fundus height measurement was only 27cm so I have been referred to the hospital for further assessment. Has anyone else experienced the same thing and everything has turned out okay or should I be worried - can't help but...

Hi everyone Just to let you know that my worries about having no symptoms were unfounded - had 12 week scan last monday and all seemed A okay so I am trying to enjoy things now..................so to anyone else who doesn't feel pregnant I am sure nature is just being kind to you! :D

Well since last time I have to say I feel quite a bit more exhausted especially round about 3pm but still no sickness etc 11 weeks now and can't wait for the scan a week on Monday, still can't get the feeling out of my head head that something is wrong!............not that I am praying for any...

Thanks for that - just feel better that I'm not the only one, bit isolating as I don't feel I can spread the news yet! It's strange that your prediction of total exhaustion has actually cheered me up. Thanks again! :)
