Solids have begun

After another visit to the clinic today, Tahlia has not gained any weight again in two weeks. The clinic suggested i start some rice cereal and hope solids may help in settling her down. They wanted me to get on the waiting list for Tresilian but i convinced them to wait a week and see how the solids go. I can't even begin to think how i could organise the family for a 5 nights while i stay in Sydney. We also have a similar system here for day stays, so I'll try that first.

Well the rice cereal went fine and she polished off all i offered to her. She then actually slept an hour and only woke to burp and is now back asleep on my chest, so fingers crossed this is our answer.

As i say to Ian each night, things can only get better!

Good on you for giving solids a go - it doesn't make you a bad mum. And surely there are people in your family who would help out if you did end up going to Tresillian? You need this and their support as much as your kids need their mum happy.
