@offtoneverland baby oatmeal mixed with breastmilk. i’m steaming up some sweet potato right now for them later today. and that’s great that Sydney took to using a cup! i’m really looking forward to moving on to that and not having to wash bottle parts anymore.
@booksandcoffee hope James is a good eater for you! my oldest dd is a picky eater too. how old is yours? mine will be 4 in a few weeks. i just learned about ARFID like a week ago, and she has many of the signs/symptoms of that. that freaked me out enough to change our feeding rules since then. anyways, the pedi told us this time to start solids earlier than last time to discourage pickiness. i’m hoping that will work and that these two will be much easier eaters.
Thanks. Both kids were up for several hours in the MOTN, so today should be a blast since naps will be limited. I'm basically a walking zombie. How much is too much coffee when you are BF?
Just got home not too long ago. Our appointment went really well. They are changing his medicine to omeprazole. We will be supplementing my breast milk with MCT oil. He will get one bottle a day with that. And in a couple of weeks, we will be starting a solid as in pick a vegetable and start it and see how we do. We go to our doctor in 2 weeks for a weight check. Back to see them in four.
Omeprezole is the stuff dreams are made of. M had his first dose this afternoon, and he's sleeping. I might cry. He's sleeping. Soundly. I have tears in my eyes. I don't even care that he needs to awake right now. He's sleeping.
@wildrainbow that’s wonderful!!! let him sleep. hope it just keeps getting better for him (and you).
the twins had a weight check at the pedi’s yesterday, and they both gained 10oz in 4 weeks. the pedi said she was very happy with that, and that they’re “growing gangbusters.” but... that’s only 2.5oz a week. i can’t help but feel like that should be concerning.
in happy news, i finally ordered some pretty nursing bras. i hope they fit. can’t keep hiding behind billowy sweaters now, lol.
Once again I have failed to get on a computer for forever. I've browsed and love titted. I'm so so glad the omeprazole is working for M @wildrainbow. I hope it continues to do so! I also love the hair picture you posted.
Life is crazy here (hence not getting on the computer) and Spencer went from a unicorn baby to an angry badger at night. The last week of sleep has been worse than when he was a newborn and overall sleep has been bad the last month. I'm not sure what the deal is, but I hope it gets better soon. He'll be 5 months old Tuesday.

Where did you get the pretty bras? I need some, but they also need to come in boat sizes, lol.
and some DO come in boat sizes! up to H. save25 worked last night for 25% off.
@highsteaks I hope your girls are doing well!
