baby food about once a week tho.

yes, but these last 3 nights have been
*horrible*. i'm starting to wonder if he's
teething since he's a slobber machine and
always chewing on his hands or sleeve
along with these recent torturous nights.
or maybe he's going through another growth
spurt.
he acts like he'd take more if i gave him
more but i don't think he needs more than
6oz at a time. once he burps and realizes
there's no more he's fine so i think he's
just a little piggy who'd drink more if he
had it but doesn't need it.

oh boy the saliva is a big indicator of
little teeth coming! touch his bottom gum
and see if he will scream ...if he does
jerk back or cry ..you got a teether! lol
if he is doing his nights there is no need
to increase his amount ...lucky you!

Just starting like 3 days ago, .Kaylee

Do they start eating more like that when
they are going through growth spurts?

Gerber has stages... 1 2 and 3 ... its
based on age... 1 is for beginners, 2 i
think starts at 6 months and 3 is like 9+
months.. the higher up the thicker it is
and chunkier.

stage 2 starts at 6 months? we missed that
train... we're still
struggling to get .alyvia to eat her stage
1 foods! She can eat it fine, but she
hates the taste of, well, everything
unless it's mixed with cereal.

not a big deal, trace is on stage one and
not too fond of baby food....turns out he
likes table food much better. some babies
just arent impressed by puress 
also, a lot of babies arent truly ready
for solids all together until much later
than we may think. no need to push it.

The rest of the day is a nightmare though.
