1. Feeding solids question
--------------------------------------------------------
amywink - 12/25/2012 12:01 pm

 We have 8 mo twins, and we started solids at 6 mos, no
 problems feeding. They breastfed til just last week,
 and have gotten formula supplements since about 3 mos
 (now exclusively formula). I've been feeding them two
 meals a day of solids, but when the nanny is here they
 get three. The only real reason they only get two when
 the nanny isn't here is because my husband feels like
 its too much hassle. In general, he is way more
 stressed about parenting than I am, and everything is
 very intense for him. The only constant is change, and
 it's difficult to keep up. I'm trying to be patient
 with this, and I know that whereas with one baby I'd be
 an overachiever, being way on top of developmental
 milestones, with two I'm probably a few weeks behind
 with everything (e.g. pincer grasp started weeks ago,
 and I just started putting nibs of food on their trays,
 and everything is still pretty puréed, not chunky). 
 To my question: At what point does eating solids
 become less practice and more nutrition? Hubby keeps
 saying how they need 32 oz of formula at least each
 day, and we sometimes argue about whether to start with
 a bottle or solids for a particular meal, I say solids,
 he says bottle. They have started waking up at night
 now and then, whereas they'd been sleeping thru til 5
 or so before, and I'm wondering if we aren't feeding
 them as much as we should. Their weights are fine. 
 There seem to be many different "feeding guide" type
 references, so I know there isn't necessarily one right
 answer.So far they get cereal and veggies, I'm starting
 puréed meat today. Any references, schedules, and
 opinions are appreciated! Thanks and Happy Holidays :)

 I bought the Foscam and there is an app available that
 works great. You can move the camera and pan the room
 and there s 2 way audio.
