Before solids, he was sleeping 8 to 9 hours straight. Didn't have to get up, didn't have to eat, nothing.

He was sick around the same time and getting 2 teeth in so I just hicked it up to the combination of things and just let it be.

It's been about 3 weeks since we started solids and in those three weeks, he acts like he's starving at night. Gets up at least 3 times and sometimes more.

It sucks.

But I keep telling myself it's a phase. Soon, he'll be back to normal, right?

I don't know. Just have to roll with it because I know that he's got to eat and I'm the source of food.

I just started my daughter (5.5 months) on solids...rice cereal which she hated as well and carrots...and she has been having problems with it as well with BM. How was Coen sleeping during that time? was he fussy going to bed? I'm noticing I have that problem with her since we have started solids, and am wondering if the solids might be the problem.

I think every baby is just different when it comes to solids. We started with rice cereal and bananas and he hated both of them. Was so unhappy and had issues with BM's afterward. I took that as him telling me he wasn't ready. I waited 3 weeks and then BAM kid has been an eater ever since! Glad things are going better. Happy Friday :)
