Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 , I don't think we have met, forgive me if I don't take time to introduce myself at 3am...LOL I'm up nursing my 7 month old..anyway..My Sydney is 3 and we too can't seem to get enough water into her! 50 oz a day, can you imagine? We purchased a snow cone (hawaiian ice) machine at Biggs. Then we add some color and flavor and eat it with a spoon.. Maybe Langan would like it too?

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 Jenn, We've been making the jello as jello and she LOVES it. It has also been nice to be able to give it to her as a treat during the day. And since it isn't calculated into the diet, we will be using it to work on finger feeding, too. It has been hard to do any finger feeding with her meals b/c of the need to get it all in. She is a messy little eater. = ) We do syringe some into her but it is a real chore. Her medicines go in by syringe so she is pretty wary when it comes near her mouth. Thanks for the ideas! We'll keep on trying! > We were told to use jello as a fluid - are you able to do this as well? One way to get a little more fluid into them. Another things I used to do with Mike (got the idea from my neighbor) was to give him a cup and a syringe and let him syringe his water into his mouth - not as accurate as I would've liked back then - but it got him drinking. > > Jenn > Re: , don't give up hope! > > > , > I don't think we have met, forgive me if I don't take time to > introduce myself at 3am...LOL I'm up nursing my 7 month > old..anyway..My Sydney is 3 and we too can't seem to get enough > water into her! 50 oz a day, can you imagine?

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 walmart has an ice shredding machine/snow cone machine for $10. You add the ice to the top and it comes out the side all nice and chipped, small enough to drink through a straw even. Add your whatever anf wala. Ally Re: , don't give up hope! Dina, Thanks for the great idea! I tried freezing her koolaid (her new favorite thing) and crushing it but I think it was too cold for her. But maybe a snowcone machine would be better- the shaved ice seems like it would go down better than crushed. We'll have to see if we can find a machine and try it.
