MOM TO A 4 MONTH OLD
| Mon, 01-05-2004 - 5:43pm |
Hello everyone, I am a first time mother to a beautiful four month old baby boy. He weighs about 16 lbs and is about 26" long. Since I had him I became a stay at home mom and could'nt be happier. I recently started him on a teaspoon of cereal a day on my own. If there is anyone out there that can send me some advice or is in a similar situation please email me. Lets become friends and support eachother as we bring up our beautiful children.

first time sahm to 4mth old boy. Justino. he's a little over 18lbs now as you can see from his pics he's a big well fed baby.. he just started cereal this week..until now he has been stricktly bf..(we tried 1supp btle at night so dh could feed him too but the formula was leading to a long 3mths of colic behavior which has thankfully ended.. ) he loves the cereal!! since he is just starting off i have been giving it to him once a day midday. due to his tummy upsets easily and it would not be fun at night... but

My dh and I are talking about ttc our second child. Right now Alyssa is 19 weeks old. I noticed that your children are close in range. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

My situation is exactly like yours: I am a 1st time mom to an almost 5-month-old (20 1/2 weeks) son and also stay at home. He went to the Dr. today and is 17 lbs. and 26 in. I also just started him on a tiny bit of rice cereal on Jan. 1. Since you and I are 1st time moms and are at about the same stage, I probably can't give you any advice. But if you tell me things that concern you, maybe I can offer you ways I deal with things and vice versa. Or it would still be nice just to hear things that you do with your son, your schedule and I can tell you about how Matthew and I spend our days.
My husband usually works during the day but he is a general contractor with his own busines so sometimes he's home earlier than usual and I get a break to things on my own sometimes. Sometimes I get a bit bored because things do get a tad monotonous. But then Matthew will smile and I forget about being bored! Staying home is sometimes depressing but then I have days where I love it. How about you?
