Hi all!

Finaly I think I should write something on my page!!

At the moment I'm a sahm,mum to a loveliest baby and a wife to a greatest man!!

And I must admit I never tought I'l enjoy staying at home with the baby...and that was my bigest worry during pregnancy as I knew that I wont be able to work.For a while.

I've always been very independent and have been traveling and moving around a lot for the past 10 years,what made it even worse, as with no family around and a circle of friends changing constantly I kind of got used putig myself first.....

My pregnancy was great,super easy,I did have a cancer scare the same week I found out I was pregnant,and tought I might lose the bub,but it all turned out well.I've kept reasonably fit,and only gained 15 kg,out of which I stil have 4 kg to shift (11kg went in the first week). I must admit that breastfeeding makes very hungry all the time and I'm surprised that I'm not gaining weight!!

Zane Luka was born on 11th December,10 days overdue,after being induced. As he was showing quite big on all US i was convinced that he will come early,but boy I was wring!! Long walks,pineaple,hot food,currys,sex,nothing worked!Even during the labour,I was dialating,but he was staying high. The midwife would push him down,he'd go back up!When I was fully dialated and was time to push,as he hadnt dropped she was on top of me pushing him down while I was pushing out!! And then they brought in some huge spatula's to make him slide out easyer.I was so pleased I've decided to have an epi (was planing on going without).Zane came an hour later, measuring 54 cm and 4.150 kg (21.2' & 9.15 lbs).

Litle conehead for a few hours!! A truly amazing feeling.To be someone's mum!!

Mark was with me the whole time,I could'nt have done this without him,ever-I was scared of everything!! He got to cut the cord,what was unexpected-my dr.has never discussed it with me and we didnt know the custom in Spain...

Mark works overseas,he had to leave 5 days after Zane was born,so I've been on my own with him most of the time (my mum was here for 4 weeks,but wasnt much help).He came back for a week in january and is back for another week tomorrow-yepee!! We'll be going back with him for the whole of march what is great as he is missing out on soooo much!!

Message to all This may be interesting to some of you. Seema`s email is seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com

Hi there,

I work for a television production company based in the UK . We are currently making a documentary for ITV1 exploring the issues surrounding pregnancy and eating disorders. The film will be a thoughtful and insightful look into this extremely sensitive subject.

We’re in the research stage of our production and very keen to chat to women who are, or have been, pregnant whilst having an eating disorder.

If you’re interested in having a chat or finding out more about our documentary, it would be really great to hear from you. All communication would be in complete confidence.

You can contact me on: seema.modhvadia@rdftelevision.com

I don't mind but I don't know what to tell you. We started in the tub at a month old. I think that has a lot to him crawling at six months old. We worked up to him going under water and such. We'd fill the tub higher then you normally would so he could get the feel of a pool. All the things that kids get scared of when in the pool. When we finally moved to the big pool we sat on the steps and played. We moved down each step until he couldn't touch. I held his belly as he "crawled" in the water. It was really cute. I think you just need to let your baby goes at his time and do what he wants. Both my husband and I are water babies. Like I said before I learned to swim before I could walk and my husband wasn't far behind me. We both did comp. swimming and he is a master scuba diver. Water is a big part of our lives. Hope you and your little guy have fun learning. Oh and there are mom and me swim classes you can take too.

Thanks for the advice, I guess I will have to pump this weekend to see how he does.

Thank you for the advice on the sun lotion. I found one made by Aveeno. It's a 55 for babies over 6 months but I will try it anyway. It's really only for added protection for when we are in the shade anyway. I couldn't think of anything worse than letting Izzy get burned even in the shade. Luckily my husband is not a sun person so he won't be outside all that much and she can hang out with him when I want to suntan. Again thank you so much for the advice!!

I started my kids out on rice cereal and then worked in bananas and apple juice. It seems like oj might be kind of acidic on their little tummies? I have a 15 & 12 year old and a newborn. Things have changed alot over the years especially all of the advice and I am just doing what seems to be tried and true over the long period of time. My baby's Doc totally agreed with me on that too :)

hi how are you i read your post about solid foods. my daughter is 9 weeks and i asked the doctor about starting solids like rice cereal because she isnt satisfied with her bottle...he said the requirement was 4 months or 13 lbs. my mom started all her kids at 2 months on rice cereal. have you thought of doing that first?

loriking18 - Sunday, 2 Mar
I have never herd of giving a 3 month old oj and banana but you could if you need to like if the baby does not seem full give him baby cereal start with the rice cereal you should not give baby any thing else till around 5-6 months

Even when your baby is 6 mo. or older, oranges and other acidic fruits can burn and redden yor child's bottom. most pediatricians agree that (watered down)juice is given after 6 mo. Unless he is sick or something and your doctor tells you to give clear liquids only. Even then, pedialyte is what you should give. Also, it is best to start with rice cereal because there is almost no risk of intolerance. Our doctor recommended starting Charlize on a tsp rice cereal with 6 oz. formula (also 1/2 oz. of extra water)at 7 wks. She had reflux. It helped some. She's much better now, but I think she's just growing up.

According to my pediatrician, she highly recommends NO SOLIDS until 6 months due to allergies- not just food allergies.There are a lot of new studies out on this now. I also have a big baby- a girl weighing 9 lbs 10.6 oz and 22.5 inches long at birth! She is now 4 months old weighs 15 lbs 14 oz and is 26.5 inches long! Best of luck to you! :-)

i think sometimes i worry too much, if i dont get him into a routine, then he will have trouble when he is older, but at the moment, he goes up when we do, about 10ish at the mo, whether he sleeps then is another matter, and he then we get up between 8 and 9, but i think i just need to try go more with the flow and as u say observe his patterns etc. Altho ive tried to keep him awake sometmes during day, and it is almost impossible! he is a sleepy head in day..
