sethrakMarcus is five months old today. :D
Well, he's had his four-month shots finally. ^_^ Poor thing did NOT enjoy them, as you can imagine, but he got over it quickly. On the recommendation of the nurse-practioner who checked Mark over before the dr. came in, and my m-i-l's advice, we've started giving him a little rice cereal mixed in with formula or expressed milk at bedtime. So far it isn't helping him sleep a whole lot better or longer at night... x_x But at least it seems to help him get off to sleep better initially. And it's a good first step towards solids. I plan to wean him off breastmilk and onto formula when he turns six months old. And I plan to start him on real solids at that time too. Rice cereal thick enough for a spoon, then strained veggies, then strained fruits. I doubt he'll be on meats before![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
davner returns.
Monday we take him back to Dr. Sheinbein for a followup on the eczema.
More details later.
