We trundled back to Great Ormond St Hosptial (GOSH) today for another check-up. Good news- Gremlin's levels have been good, in fact a little low so we have gone up to 7 exchanges (that's 7g of protein per day) and I have a stash of new food samples to try with Gremlin. Bad news- I need to start trying harder to get Gremlin's protein into her meals, rather than giving it separately first. This fills me with dread, as I know that the protein is not guaranteed to get eaten. In addition, protein free finger food is no longer enough and I need to let her feed herself the meal more. GOSH say I need to be brave about it, but I fear that is easier said than done. It is hard to be brave and bold with any of this but I will try my best.
As a happy aside, we went to Nando's for dinner afterwards (it was a late appointment) and spotted Ratatouille as a 'Fino Side' dish. Daddymin checked with the kitchen and it is protein free and suitable for Gremlin to have with some exchanges of chips when she is a bit bigger. Daddymin LOVES Nandos so this is very good news. Here she is enjoying a banana for her pudding:
