Steph L.'s little girl from the FAC is almost exactly my daughter, with both the pul-up pooping AND the "I need my privacy." But happily we got Casper to poop in the potty before 4 (3.5, I think). Potty training was so stressful for me. Ugh.
JZ, there's a good book called Why Won't My Kid Eat? that I liked a lot. Basically, they can subsist on very little, and there is a big weight plateau from 9-18 months, so unless the ped is worried, no need to be worried, and forcing a baby to eat is baaaad.
MM, I suggest a playgroup. What, there's not stay-at-home-dada support group in MI? There should be!
And in conclusion, I know a 4 year old who said to mr. flea as he picked her up to put on a swing, "I'm heavy, because I'm fat." So sad. She has a stocky build, but has been that way since birth, and in no way is currently fat or even chubby. She's just built square. I am pretty sure it's her grandmother who has made her think this, so even talking to her mother won't accomplish much. Still - ugh.
Happy Birthday Katie Bee!!
Happy Birthday Ms. Havisham!!
Happy Birthday, Princess Beatrice!!!
I'm trying not to stress, since she's eating something somewhere and she's continuing to take the bottle without a fuss and I've read from many sources that making feedings an Issue just sets you up for Issues with Food. But then I worry that I should be more worried. Someone, please, tell me it's normal
Lillian didn't like to take food from me. I was for liquid food, you see. So Paul got feeding duties. But she wasn't a huge eater at the time, and is still weird about food. Fickle, I should say. Fickle.
Everything I've seen says it's normal.
My mother's response was to set me on newspapers and let me self feed. Does Matilda like to play with her spoon?

I have a friend whose daughter is exactly the same. She just eyes her mother like she's lost her mind when she offers her solids. Mommy=milkbar.
I want to hang out with Miracleman. I'll bring my old copies of Grendel. We'll have beers and watch the kids chase each other around.
Oh dear LOWARD
I have to go outside and let my office air out - this tenant stank so badly.
I mean fuck. Can people just NOT smell themselves????

THAT? Would be the most awesomest thing ever ever ever.
I have most of the Grendels from the Christine Spar through the end of Orion Assante run, but not all of them.
Kristin, if you're around, insent.
I have those--I think all of them. It's been awhile since I've gone through them. I have the redone Devil by the Deed AND the Batman/Grendel crossover, though. So. Delicious.
I have NEVER READ "Devil by the Deed". I have both Grendel/Batman crossovers, though.
