Bum boosting

**TripleTime** · 30-11-2009 14:06

The Trip's high chairs arrived last week, i put DS in but he kinda looks a little lost in their. Kinds cute but oh so odd looking. Girls arent going to be any better off.

Anyone got any idea on how i can boost their bums up so they are level with the tray & can reach their food?

Hey there triple, what type of chairs did u get... mayb try towles which mihgt work well if there is a plastic middle leg thing like a crutch stopper coz then they defo can slide down... or maybe cheap hardish pillows.... hope all is well... did dd pick her fluids back up? we r on day 10 of not eating oh how fun it is...

I used rolled up towels for both of mine as you can easily throw them in the wash and put a clean one on as they get filthy. But they worked fine and was still able to strap them in.

Ended up with love & care techno. Crutch stopper is on the tray, so i can pack them in big time.

T's got her fluids & appetite back with force, seams to be making up for lost time. Lol.
Lack of intake instant good when we work so hard to get good gains. Who's lacking?

Yep, DS wont eat either or let anything in his mouth unless it comes in liquid form

Im impressed with his 9kg

. Girls are 6kg & J 6.3kg. 75%ile for corrected age. They dont look it though.

Hollly, 75 %!!! wow I would b over the moon if lachie hit the 3% but never has n they think he neva will... How old corrected r they... Hey see dietian again this week they trying to gte him a bit more of a portable pump for his feeds... I cant wait but then that begs the question if he might need his oxy back on 24/7 t help with weight gain.... Hope the kids r doing well tho...

4 months corrected this week.

I heard some where that Karicare supply pumps. I think it was someone at the hospital that told me.

If O2 means gains, might be worth it. Could be using all his energy trying to breathing instead of saving some for growing.

Yea, and nutricare have pumps as well but the pump they want him to have we have to apply thru padp i think it also has something to do with the milk he is on... Yea, Im jsut over O2 we finally allowed off when he is awake in feb the year I dont want to go back, but i kno if it helps but still in saying that they r doing some other test for hormone growth n stuff so time will tell... But yea at the end of the day he isnt doing to bad I just wish he would eat something... Hopefully ur son is just going thru a phase or even better he might b popping a tooth...
