my baby has been eating rice cereal for nearly a week now. I have been feeding him with my maid holding him on her lap facing outwards while I feed him. but I also would like to have him sit properly to eat... I have been looking at highchairs, too. and today, I bought something called the Bumbo from Mothercare. it's a mould chair which is very lightweight so can easily take it with you to other places if needed. I will try it with him tonite. hope he will like to sit in it... but my baby is very fussy. he refused to sit in the bouncy chair nor our sofa at home. I will buy a proper highchair a bit later... but I thought this Bumbo looks good cause I can bring it with me easily... will let you know if he likes...
Hi Curly,
I use Nuk's weaning spoons and ceramic bowl from sogo.
sigh, today Hymn Hymn doesn't want his milk. he only had 3.5oz, 4 oz and then 1oz in the 3 morning feeds. I'm going to cry!!!
I don't know what to do!!
but he likes to sit in the Bumbo. he had a few spoonful of carrot puree this morning sitting in the thing!!
My baby turns 5 month today and I took him to the clinic to have the 3 round DPT vaccine (didn't inject at 4 m when he was sick). The nurse said that I shouldn't give him apple juice eventhough it is very diluted. She said that it is not good for his kidney. And of course she said that I shouldn't feed him anything solid before 6m (as the book says).
Did your nurses tell you this? Should I go ahead with cereal and juice or should I wait for a few weeks more? My bb drinks a lot more water when I put some apple juice in.
