Oh the snot, tears and tantrums of the day, both my babies and me are feeling rough from this cold and it is really taking it out of us. I can't wait for this to pass.
Little man, however, seems to have got his appetite back today. He ate most of his breakfast of pear and 4 grain porridge and was in a lovely mood this morning. He was giggling, playing with his feet and cooing away to start with. By lunch time he was a little ratty so we dosed him up with infant pain relief and gave him butterbeans and veggies mixed with the last of yesterdays carrot, broccoli and sweet potato pouch. Morgan seemed very pleased to have daddy feed him lunch, so pleased in fact he waited for the spoon to be in his mouth before sneezing and covering everyone and everything within a 6ft radius with his baby mush. I was just out of firing range and found the whole thing highly entertaining lol.
Morgan was delighted to have daddy spoon feed him once again at dinner time, lots of giggles and spoon grabbing going on and suddenly it all went very quiet. When I looked up, I realised little man was mesmerised by the sight his daddy opening his own mouth and chewing along with him. Funny thing was, daddy was oblivious to what he was doing until he realised I was mimicking him between giggles. After that he tried so hard to keep his face still but he just couldn't manage it so went back to chewing imaginary mouthfuls of swede, carrot and broccoli puree lol.

- 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.
