Day 30

Having re washed all of Morgans clothes in a different washing powder, his eczema seems to be less angry looking, what a relief. It still looks sore and behind his knees he has quite large areas of it but at least it seems to be easing now. The patches under his chin and on his neck are flaring up again but I think its because he's teething and won't stop dribbling.

This morning I gave him 4 grain porridge which he was really quite excited about, bless him. He ate about 2 tablespoons of it and drained his bottle afterwards.

For lunch I boiled 2 carrot sticks for him and made up broccoli, carrot and pear puree. He had not long woken up from a 3 hour nap (a first for him as 45mins to an hour is normal) so he was very hungry! It was also the first time I can honestly say he seemed to grasp what he's meant to do, as when he felt the spoon on his lip he opened his mouth and there was very little mess made for once. He ate about 4-5 tablespoons of the puree and was desperate to eat the carrot sticks, he's not quite got to grips with bite, chew and swallow yet, more of a bite, chew and spit it out thing going on lol.
