Once again little man was awake from 2am till 3.30am and was then unsettled for another hour after that. Dropping his dream feed was a mistake as he woke up for a bottle at midnight instead and then we had the 2am ritual to deal with on top. I'm so very, very tired. In fact I'm so tired that at one point I'd had enough of Morgan fussing and told his daddy to "take it away". Oh dear.
I have however, managed to get little man over to nutramigen. He's been a bit fussy with bottles all morning but by the afternoon he seemed to take a more normal amount per feed. His eczema doesn't seem so bad this evening either so maybe we're on to something.
Been difficult to gauge Morgan's appetite today, he's been tired so that would affect his appetite but also the flavour of the new formula in his food may have put him off slightly. He wasn't so enthusiastic over banana porridge today, wasn't really fussed with the carrot, squash and pear puree for lunch or the sweet potato and broccoli he had for dinner. I hope tonight we have a better night and maybe tomorrow his appetite will return too.

- weaning with allergies
- I'm mummy to 2 gorgeous babies. DD is 2 years old and DS is 7 months. Both babies have reflux and food allergies. Weaning my daughter was a traumatic, lonely and frightening experience as despite having food allergies myself, how on earth do I wean a baby with allergies?? Now I'm weaning again, I'm so much more confident. It has prompted me to share our journey with you so parents and carers dealing with food allergies can be assured they are not alone.
