Tomorrow, Auntie, Leo and I are flying to Holland to visit Opa en Oma (Grandpa and Grandma!) for 10 days. Daddy has to stay home to go to work and we'll miss him very much!
So what happened?
Monday: Missed Milestone
On Mondays Leo and I go to "Relax & Stretch with Baby", essentially a gentle yoga class for mums and babies.
I was doing a sun salute and looked down to check on Leo, still happily gazing around the room on his tummy. Wait. What? His tummy? When I put him down, he was on his back...
...oh. He rolled over. And I missed it.
D'oh!
Tuesday: One of those days...
So Leo's been a bit...unsettled...since last Thursday. We were due to go to the baby clinic anyway on Tuesday to have him weighed and checked over so I made a doctor's appointment at the same time to see if the doctor could shed any light on why he was so fussy and unhappy all the time.
Didn't get much help from the doctor but he did advise to try Leo on some baby rice to see if that would help at all and if any of the problems we're having were due to hunger or reflux (solid food is much harder to reflux up than liquid!).
In clinic we found out that Leo now weighs 6.6kg (14 lb 8 oz)! That last growth spurt really put some weight on him!
Wednesday: Still fussin'!
Baby sensory today...which was just about tolerated by Leo but Mummy's friend S really noticed the change in Leo. Decision made to try him with the baby rice on Thursday to see if that would make him happier...
Thursday: Weaning, pt. 1
The photos say it all, really!
He was extremely eager to taste what was on the spoon but I think it came as rather a big disappointment to him as he wailed!
By the end of our experiment he was happy to gloop it all over his fingers and smear it on his and my face and clothes so at least he had a little fun. :)
Tomorrow we're off to Holland so no blog posts until we're back again on the 26th!
