Crusher will every now n then, but now that you mention it, it’s not near as often... how are yours doing??

She still does it, but only when soaking and she doesn’t look bothered, she just does it kind of a routine...Right now her weight go up and down in the 60’s. I hope she goes 70g by 5 months!

First I tought mine was very small for it’s age because I miscalculated her age but she still has 1 1-2 week to go before 5 months and weighs between pickles and crusher so I feel much better about her growth. She is actually a bit younger than yours. But what I find the most interesting is that all our babies are(if you compare to others) on the very small side for their age. So having a comparison is even more important.

Thank God I was blessed with healthy children because I have friends with premature babies that celebrate every gram of weigh gain. It’s beautiful when they turn into little chubby giggling babies [emoji847]

First summer time in 12 years I’ve had weeds in my yard [emoji849]. All cuz of Daisy, but she gets fresh picked salads every morning at 5:15 to 6 am... if I’m late, she looks pissed off and is sitting in her food dish [emoji849]

Just now, after thunder storms...

Thunderstorms?? I’ve got to google Addis... I travel all of North La & a little of the south daily.. don’t know Addis though. Mine were way more active outside today than usual.. I thought it was because I took them out earlier in the day instead of evening like I normally do.. maybe they know something I don’t:) either way, it’s hot n sunny here! Headed to Sarepta later for Muddy bottoms atv Park:) could use a little rain I bet.

You are right!! Don’t we all have dry started babies? I had went back to the messages between myself and the guy I bought from and saw where I was instructed to keep them dry and warm! I’m so glad I found this sight. It has really made a huge difference in my whole life. Now I’m confident that I’m doing a good job. It’s awesome to see these babies thriving even if they are a bit smaller. Mine will actually be 5months on the 10th. I tend to count by weeks so it gets confusing but the hatch date was 4/10.. so we could actually have siblings :))
