What a hideous nights sleep. Little man's appetite has returned with avengence, he was quite unsettled anyway after his dream feed but just 3 hours later woke up screaming. After changing his nappy, cuddles, a few pleading 'shush you'll wake your sister up' whispers, we realised he was starving hungry and he guzzled 180ml in seconds then fell back to sleep. Just as we started to relax he woke up again wanting to play. A few stern 'child it's 3am, behave' comments later it was game over and it was a case of waiting it out. Trouble is DD then woke up and heard Morgan playing and wanted in herself. Kids!!!!!!!
Breakfast (eventually when our sleeping little menace decided to join us) was porridge with some fruit puree. Again he tucked it away no problem then the menace fell asleep again. Made me feel like creeping up on him and screaming "I'm hungry, give me food and do it now" and see how he likes it lol.
Lunch was beef casserole followed by rice pudding. He ate all of both dishes then afterwards refused a bottle so he was certainly a full little man.
We went out for dinner to an italian restaurant as it is DH's birthday. It was really lovely being out as a family, even though DH refused to eat while we were there and instead opted to have her chips, cod goujons and peas from a pizza box in the back of the car. Little man was antsy when we arrived as he was hungry, so he really enjoyed the chicken pasta bake I'd brought with us. He refused pudding, which was fruit puree, though.

- 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.
