We aren't officially starting solids yet, but just starting to practice and see how she does. We have only tried twice now. She doesn't really open her mouth, so you just have to shove it in or sneak it. She did swallow some though (as evidenced by gross spit up later on...). I think she enjoyed it though! We tried oatmeal and applesauce. The applesauce she didn't go for, but probably because it was cold. I just made normal oatmeal, then put it in the baby food blender and added some milk to it. That went better because it was nice and warm.
I'm not sure when we will start making it part of the 'schedule' (I put that in quotes because who are we kidding, we still have no schedule!). Probably closer to 6mon, right now we just do it when we need something to do :)
She loves to be held, although rarely likes to sit down and just snuggle. She loves to be carried around.....which is cute, but a little annoying since I can't get anything done with one hand. AND she isn't exactly little, it gets heavy lugging her all around! This was a day she took TERRIBLE naps, so she was zombie baby and was actually ok with snuggling.
She also started rolling over! On February 19 (I'm putting the date in so I know exactly when, for looking back purposes). She doesn't do it consistently, just when her arms are in the exact right spot. She hasn't rolled back to front though, but has come close a few times. All her limbs get in her way.
Brie got her first cold, that was not so fun. I was so disappointed, I thought breastfed kids weren't supposed to get sick! She had a low grade fever one day, and snotty nose for over a week. It just kept dragging on and on and she was SO fussy. I did finally take her in thinking maybe it was her ears, but everything was clear. She still isn't completely snot free, but close!
