Xander (4.5mo) is in daycare full time. His primary caregiver is on vacation this week, so there are these random women watching him. On Monday, they told me he was getting hungry 30 minutes earlier than normal and could they PLEASE feed him (apparently they were under the impression I told them to strictly stay on the 3-hour schedule, which I did NOT do). I said if he was hungry, feed him!

Yesterday, the women who talked to me on Monday weren't even there, so I couldn't get any information about his hunger. I asked one of the other women who was there, but she normally watches the older infants, so she didn't know what the deal with. According to his sheet, he was still fed every 3 hours, like normal. The woman I spoke to said she thought that he WAS hungry earlier because he was chewing on his hand (which he does 24/7, so this isn't any indication of anything).

THEN she asked why I wasn't giving him solids yet. Apparently she gave HER babies solids at SIX WEEKS!!!! Then she went on to say that breast milk isn't very substantial and doesn't fill their bellies and really isn't enough. What the what!!!
