Shai had his 9 mth well visit this past week. He weighed in at 17 lbs 3 oz and 27.5 in tall. Not bad if u didn’t consider how much he weighed at his 6 mth well visit… 16 lbs 13 oz. So he only gained 6 oz in 3 mths!! He dropped quite a [...]

Shai is 6.5 mths now and still not sitting up on his own. He still flops over to one side or another. A cple more wks!!
He’s DEF teething! He’s drooling like crazy and I’m having to put a bib on him to keep him semi-dry! And this wk he’s started chewing on his lower lip. [...]

This one’s a little harder to do since he’s so much more developed than Shai, but I’ll give it a go!!
Damn smart! Absorbing everything like a sponge. Repeats things that we don’t even know where he picked up from!! But fabulous to see AND hear!
His new fav is making up words and saying that it [...]

My baby boy is growing fast!!
Rolling from front to back and back to front on his own.
Learning how to sit up, but is more like a weeble wobble. He folds in half a little bit, but more likely falls over to one side or the other. So his trunk muscles are strong enough to keep [...]

My baby has progressed from JUST breast milk to mostly breast milk w/ some solids!! I started him 2 wks ago on rice cereal. He lapped it up NO PROBLEM! He was much better at it then I expected and much better than Oden had done at around the same age. He opened wide for [...]

And guess who won? I can’t even tell u how many times I’ve told him to leave the bees alone. They’re all over the grass in the clover flowers. He keeps kicking and stomping on them. Well, yesterday he was in the grass w/o shoes on. I turn away for a second and he’s screaming [...]

My baby boy is now 5 mths old and the time has just flown by! I am scared that in the blink of my eyes he’s gonna be a yr old already!
He’s a wonderful baby. Very easy and laid back.
He’s awake more and more. Altho he still naps quite often. He stays awake anywhere b/w [...]

My baby Shai went EIGHT DAYS w/o a bm. I was feeling his pain!! Altho he actually seemed just fine. The ped had me doing all kinds of things to try to stimulate his bowels… thermometer in his butt every 3 hrs, administer 1 oz of water to push things thru, sit him in a [...]

The elimination diet did not work. I cut out (in addition to nuts and dairy) wheat, eggs, soy, and seafood, but to no avail. Shai’s skin is just as bad as before. So it’s certainly not an allergic reaction that’s causing his skin to flare up and break out and dry out. When we were at the [...]
