Great Presentation... my 2 year old is having a tough time with solid and liquid ever since I showed him the freezie that melted.... he seemed to understand the difference between solid and liquid until I showed him the freezie experiment so hopefully this will help him. Thanks a bunch
i agree... While dont get me wrong I love Doman... I found the CD Roms over priced... as well as behind in some of the graphics... for being leaders in this area I find them a little dated in material presentation and in quality in regards to their technology.
1. My son, a 100 percent BF baby, when he was 3- 6 and a half months would go 21 days between bowel movements.... TRUST ME I called Hospitals all over North America.... and got 2nd opinions on my second opinions... the conclusion...
It is 100 percent healthy... My son never strained to have a BM when he did go his poop was a healthy poop... It was not hard and it was the proper color... a mustardy color (you have to worry if it is black that means blood in the stools) It meant that my son was not overeating and breastmilk is considered pure and healthy... and hencce there is often not a lot of waste... and breastfed babies tend not to overeat and they control their portion sizes
2. My son lost weight from 7 months to a year... we solved it by doing the following
1. Increasing his physical activity level 2. We taught my son to sign thanks to a local signing class and Signing time videos, we noticed that my son was addicted to reading books... he would wake up in the middle of the night asking for books instead of food... hence we started to read stories and do finger puppet plays at lunch time and he started to enjoy eating time better 3. After about 11 months I used liquid oats and this increased his appetite (under supervision) 4. We noticed after a year and a half that he was allergic to milk products... his reaction was different in the sense that he was irritable, he snored at night and would develop a slight rash around his mouth at times (we assumed this was due to the soother) After doing tests with our pediatritian because I felt he was pale we noticed he had a milk allergy. He put on 1 pound in a month after taking him off the milk. 5. I noticed the less I stressed the better he started eating... I would make his breakfast with choices I deemed healthy and if he signed finish after 1 bite I would let heim down from his High Chair and put asnack plate at the kiddy table... this worked great. I ould let him snack when he was hungry on table leftovers... Hope this helps.
Thanks for this post.. I always wonder which puzzels to purchase for my two year old... we have a cupboard of about 30.... and hes funny I think hes ready for larger ones beause he flies through shape ones and wooden ones... but then has problems getting the puzzel pieces to click together... I never even thought of homemade puzzels with softers entrances so hes motivated to do the switch upwards... currently if the pieces are hard he will do it (I have a couple plastic puzzles that when its right the pieces sing... but hes outgrowing them but has shown no interst in larger puzzles... maybe its just my choices arnt the right ones.
