  • Poor baby..I said a prayer for her and her family! Get better soon little one!!

  • How old is your lo? Lillys 6 mo and she was doing the same so I started oatmeal with a little fruit for breakfast, 1 package of fruit for lunch and 1 package of veg for dinner. Formula all the other times. Her dr said as long as she gets 20-30 oz fo…
  • Lilly is 6 months and from day 9 (when she came home from nicu lol) we have this routine.. 7 pm she gets a bath with classical music in the bathroom, then wrapped up in her towel and held for a few minutes, then we go to her changing table and daddy…
  • @gatorbob its so true, I should. Then he says 'i was just kidding'..makes me wanna say 'like when you say your gonna get up with her at night'. She's so easy..she gets up, diper change, 6 oz bottle, back to bed..takes 30 mins for the whole thing! Ju…
  • @bigbelly @heyitsme Yeah its a screamin' deal. Its a short sale so its been kinda a long process but so worth it! It has cathedral ceilings in the living room, hard wood floors in the living room, kitchen and 3 bedrooms. Tile in the bathrooms too an…
  • Thanks @janet_2011 ! So glad it could make you happy too! We have worked so hard to get this house and pay off the credit cards, it just feels so surreal that its finally happening! What sweet relief :)
  • Lilly does that some times too and she's 5.5 months (not rooting but just restless kinda..like if she could toss and turn she would be lol). At first I picked her up and she dozes off like 1 minute later. Now I just place my hand lightly on the side…

  • We took Lilly to Reno a couple weeks ago (she turned 5 months while were there). We stayed at circus circus..kinda like you guys, shaun has friends in cali and were in idaho so we met in the middle. They had there newborn and 2 8 year olds and we go…
  • I worry too :( Lillys almost 5.5 months and still won't roll! She holds her head well, sits with little support, eats well and just started a sippy cup this morning (it was cute, she even took a small drink after I showed her how it works!). She hat…
  • Wow..a mont4h seems like a long time! But I'm a ftm so idk lol! Our ped advised waiting 6-7 days between new foods (sor alergies) but said it didn't matter the order that fruits,veg or cereals are started. We have done peas, squash and peaches (in t…
  • Lilly has known her name for a while now and she's 5.5 months almost! She really a watcher..constantly paying attention to her world :) she hasn't rolled over yet :( she hates tummy time. She seems super smart and watchful but I worry about her phys…
  • @ta2edblondie thank you! Were gonna have all day tomorrow and a few hours on Sunday before we leave so I will get to do stuff then. They just had me second guessing myself, ya know? They said 'oh she'll sleep in her car seat' but she was in it all d…
  • Idk..sorry I'm not much help :( maybe call health and welfare and ask?they can hopefully get you in touch with the right people at least and you can ask them :) Good luck mama!
  • Might just be a growth spurt..? Idk for sure tho so listen to that mommy instinct, its usually not wrong. Sometimes they have off days. Like Lilly only ate 19 oz all day yeasterday and she's 13 pounds (4.5 months old) so normally she eats about 26-3…
  • Lilly is 4 1/2 months and she was also a 6 pound preemie! It is bitter sweet :( shes growing so well and so big already but I kinda like her all small and sweet lol! Lillys about 13.5 pounds now..what does your lo weigh? @starrxoxo9
  • Lilly is 4 1/2 months and I think she starting to teeth. She has been drooling a lot (which I guess can be a symptom or might not be..?) And can't keep her hands out of her mouth, alway chewing and sucking on her fingers. She's been more agitated an…
  • Lilly gets the same way..she won't sleep until she good and wore out so that's what we have to do. She takes a bath around 6, then lotion and jammies. Then she has to do something to burn off energy so she'll play on her floor mat and kick and coo f…
  • She was born at 36+6 weeks and went to NICU more to deal with her birth related trama (she was stuck and rather then opt for a csection my dr pulled on her for 45 minutes with forcips causing a lot of brusing and raising her bilirubin levels beyond …
  • You did great for trying! Lilly is 4 1/2 months andi just stopped pumping. She was a premie too and spent 9 days in NICU. They advised me to pump for the same reason..so she didn't work to hard to eat. It was exhausting to pump and take care of her …
  • While Lilly was in NICU and I was staying at the hospital with her, we came home to a TON of ants! They moved in while were gone lol. We had to leave for a few hours and bomb the house. Kinda inconveinant but it worked. No experience with flees..sor…
  • Lol..Lillys 4 1/2 months and she has a cd of classical music she listens to when I'm in the shower or she's in the bath! She loves it and she also likes bob marley and reckless kelly..and sublime. Same as your lo she cries and the music settles her …

  • When Lilly came home from NIC she was 6 pounds and the car seat was rated 8-22 pounds. They did a car seat study to make she wouldn't stop breathing while in the carseat before she was clear to go home. They had us roll up a washcloth to putbetween …
  • @steph_due_101611 ok..thanks. her gums are red, she can't keep her hands out of her mouth and is chewing on her fingers a lot. She has wavey gums (is that normal of are the waves I feel little teeth..?) But a couple flat parts. sorry I can't describ…
  • @moodymommie thanks. That's what we do but she doesn't seem to hold her head up very well..its pretty wobbly still and I worry. She was born at 37 weeks so maybe she's just a little weaker cause of that..? She likes being on my chest but hates being…
  • Lilly was in NICU for 9 days cause of those damn biliruben levels! Prayin for your little one and that you get to leave with her. I refused to leave with out Lilly so they let me stay on a cot in a surgical room in NICU so I could be with her and bf…
  • 8-15..she was born August 15 LOL
  • Lilly eats about 6 oz every 3 to4 hours and 1time at night (mostly breast milk but some formula from time to time ). She's about 11 pounds (started at 6.2 pounds ). She was born 9-15 @ 37 weeks. She's strong and doing well :)
  • Thanks ladies! @pregnantelf so you just mix it 50/50? @darknesofnight4u do you mix it together or feed the breast milk first, then formula? @mimii36 thankyou!
