Doesn’t time fly! Our baby is a year old today!

Tweet

I should probably have a wonderfully touching, considered post to mark today but I haven’t.

Instead I’ve enjoyed a wonderful weekend with the family.

We had a wonderful family party yesterday – both girls in their party frocks, both playing together and the Littlest One decided to show off by pushing a chair around [...]

>Sometimes all you need to do is talk

Tweet

>If I had had a pound for every time I’ve been told over the last year that all Mr Muddling and I need to do is talk then I’d probably be a millionaire. But you see, the trouble with ‘talking’ is that you need both sides to be ready, willing and able to talk. [...]

So your baby cries.

A lot.

Ok.

Let’s be honest its rather incessant.  Its all the time, day in, day out.

So much so that your at the stage of considering wearing noise cancelling headphones to just give you a bit of a break.

Only a break from the [...]

Flicking a switch – diary free rocks!

Tweet

 

Its at times like this I wish I posted more pictures of my girls because its as if someone has flicked a switch in Babygirl and turned her into a totally different baby.

The strict dairy free diet is working.

No that’s wrong, its not working its a miracle.

Its almost as if [...]

>Finally admitting that the last year has been awful

Tweet

>

I have been hit a bit hard these last few days and so not been engaging really with people both in the real and virtual worlds.

This week marks one year since Babygirl first tried to wrestle her way into the world at 19 weeks gestation.  It marks the start of what has [...]

>Baby led weaning diary – now try it with no dairy

Tweet

>

As I said yesterday, things have been very one step forward, two steps back.

Not least in respect of Babygirl and her transition from milk to solid food.

I have finally faced the issue that she didn’t seem totally happy with dairy produce and got us a referral to a very nice consultant [...]

I feel trapped by breastfeeding

Blah blah blah best start for your baby.

Blah blah blah helps you regain your pre-preggy body (this is utter rubbish by the way, instead you get an extra layer of fat above your hips in case you can’t keep producing milk… as if famine is really likely in this day and age).

>Weights and measures

Tweet

My girls are turning out to be so very different.

Yesterday, just for fun, we had both of them weighed to mark Toddlergirl being 2 and Babygirl hitting 6 months.

Toddlergirl was eventually coaxed onto the scales and stood still for long enough to be ranked in the 91st centile, whilst Babygirl, despite [...]

>Baby led weaning diaries – ups and downs

Tweet

>

I have a bit of a secret to admit to, we’re not doing pure baby led weaning. We did for the first couple of weeks, but now we’re onto three meals a day and she’s having what we have, some things are just easier to give her on a spoon. We’re not doing [...]

>Happy half birthday Babygirl

Tweet

>

I cannot believe that it has been six months since Babygirl joined our family.

I’m also astounded that we survived the last six months more or less intact.

Toddlergirl has adapted to not being an only child and either ignores Babygirl or treats her like a slightly irritating adjunct to her her [...]
