Default Magical Bl**dy Solids (Vent)

Well, I should say, when I'm with him, he nurses every 2 hours. I'm a full
time college student, so I'm not always with him. But yeah, when it comes
to getting things done, sometimes it's hard... but my sling is helpful. Las
few days though have been almost every 4 hours :-) I know too many other
babies who eat the same... so it's funny for me to hear of one who goes
longer... LOL

Hey now, my 11 month old still eats eery 2 hours during the day. In

fact,
a lot of babies don't stop that until after a year. It's normal though,

and
not harmful... and no solid introduction DOESN'T help. In fact, I think

it
made him nurse more often, and made him stop sleeping through the night.


Yep, hence my "what do I know" because my babies didn't eat that often

when
they were that age. I don't find it very common around here that older
babies are still nursing every two hours. I'm sure you find it hard to get
anything done, yeh? I never said it was harmful, but I wouldn't care for

it.

Well he's 30 weeks as the calendar goes (almost) but he was 6 weeks pre-term
so we need to take 6 weeks off I think ie 24 weeks.


I think the maturing of the gut has more to do with how long they've been
on the outside, not how long on the inside. I'd suggest subtracting 3
weeks, as if he was born at 37 weeks he would have been considered full
term. Making him currently 27 weeks which is 6 months, so unless there is
a strong reason not to you could start giving him some solids.
