Want to get a good selection of books for Christmas to read to the young boy (6 months old). I've ordered a few Dr Seuss books and baby's first words type books already. Has anyone got any recommendations?

Get a few popup books as well. Popup nursery rhymes or fairytales.

Aye popup books are good. Books are good not only from the obvious educational value of reading to a child, but they want to turn the pages themselves which is good for developing fine motor skills.

Aye he's started to turn the pages himself a small bit already although he's more interested in chewing the books than looking at them!

Will have a look for some pop up books on amazon here - cheers.

The Usbourne touchy-feely books are great.

Change the diet, possibly lactose intolerant. Can get lactose free formula.

Thanks Rudi. It's odd she takes a bottle no problem, but goes mad when on the boop.

Worked for my lads.

Is that what they're calling it in Laois these days? 'Gripe water'. Right.

Huh?

[deiseach]

I'd say you hit the 'gripe water' after the Newcastle result. Am I right?

[annapr]

Gripe water can be good. Have you tried Milk of magnesia?

[BenDover]

Infacol might be worth a shot as well.

[finbar o tool]

get 'Enfamil', formula. goes down normal but thickens a bit in the stomach making it harder to come back up. we had to put our lad on this stuff, worked.
