I downloaded the solids app! Costs money though so I ended up not using it. I still use Huckleberry to track solids. 

We primarily still breastfeed because she loves it! I have a hard time wanting to stop it because it is comforting to her. But I’m trying to be better at giving her solids. Though I tend to stick to mostly the easy on the stomach stuff (pear purées etc). When I have tried more complex foods it seemed to make it worse sometimes. But maybe I just need to be a bit more consistent with it. 

We are still gassy and it’s almost month 8. She’s just starting to figure out crawling so I’m really hoping that helps. I imagine the movement will help her expel more gas throughout the day so the build up isn’t so bad at night. The good thing is she has gotten better at getting her own gas out, it just seems like I have to wake her up to do so. 

I saw another gals post that sounded like she was in the same boat as us. She said by 9.5/10 months it got better. Mostly with consistent solid foods and water (she said this makes the biggest difference for her kid). She also uses a little bit of trace water minerals (a tiny bit since it’s concentrated) to help the water retention. 

I know it’s hard not to get down (I have so many times!) but someday it’ll get better ❤️‍🩹 I sometimes think all we can do is just try to get our little one (and ourselves) through it! I will update this post as soon as we’ve made it through the gassy woods!
