Months 7 & 8


Months 7 & 8:
Well in August we moved into our glorious new house if I do say so myself amazing selling our small house in London we bought a bigger house for a third of the prices!
Enjoying it so far but found myself in London alot with work and family etc. 

Well a lot happened in month 7.... H got 3 bottom teeth, which all sprouted within a few weeks 😁
Poor little thing we did have some very sleepless nights and roses cheeks. I'm not a fan of bonjela, for the contraindications, nor giving paracetamol for teething. I opted the nelsons teetha sachets and gel, which are natural and seem
To do the trick. Aswell as homemade ice lollies (it was summer!) I bought annabel karmel baby Ice lolly sticks, and used either baby milk, baby juice, blended fruit or yoghurt. Froze them. And nice and cold in bubs gums. As well as the teething rings you put in the fridge. 

H also crawled for the first time at 7 months?! 3 little shuffles at a time then he'd sit up stop and carry on. 

Now at 8 months, it seems in the last week or so, he is absolutely everywhere, fast & into everything! Need eyes in the back if your head! 👀
Risk assessments time needed. Get on the floor and crawl like your baby to see what they can see & reach. Mainly the obvious sharp corners, plug sockets, wires and anything small to put in their mouths. We have 3 stairgates already blocking rooms off!! And had to lower his cot as he pulls himself to standing in it!
