Jemima saw the dietician last week, she weighed 14lb 10oz at 7 mths old, she is now gaining around 5oz every 10 days which is just brilliant:-)

Had a good chat about how Jem reacts to dairy, she gets snotty and bunged up within minutes of eating or drinking any dairy products, extremely sick & windy for the rest of the day or can be 2 days, she gets bunged up well she poo's but ends up with mucus in it, use to be watery as a baby, etc... she said we should deffinatly leave dairy tests until she is well over 1. She is now able to have soya and gluten and so far is taking them fine.

She has Alpro soya yoghurt which she loves and I sometimes put fresh soya milk into her food or breakfast but I mainly use the Pepti formula although it is very hard to get that into her these days, she is a food monster so right off her milk:p

Seeing dietician again in July, she is pleased, she commented on how healthy & big Jem now looks:) then we saw dr that afternoon to re order her formula and he couldn't get over just how stunning she was, proud mummy;)

Just thought id update, thanks for everything.

Well done - what a great Mummy you are!!! :) You'll look back at these times when she's older and think 'How did I get through it?'

Hi Shakylou,
I live in North Wales too, not far from Chester though. I know where Rhyl is, had many a day trip there as a child.
