Hi guys,

Over the past couple of days Robbie hasnt finished any of his 3 feeds. He is fine within himself - still as energetic etc and into everything but he just doesnt seem so interested in his feeds  :-\

I havent changed the feed at all but I wondered if he maybe teething more. Also coinciding with this change is his need to bite our feet and ankles again etc. He had got out of this obsession but seems to be back onto it now. Definately chewing on his chew sticks more. Loves a carrot still too. :D

I took him for his free weigh in and check up with Nurse on Monday and she said he is ideal weight and healthy. She said if he leaves feeds dont leave them there for him to graze.

Henry is nearly 18 weeks and also seemes to be eating less, he left half his breakfast this morning! strange!

I thought we might be feeding him too much, maybe its teething!

Ditto with Bix - off his feeds for a day or so.
No change to his diet but I noticed that he's lost his upper and lower teeth at the front. (he's 17+ weeks)
