Hi all... am well behind postings... interesting to follow the cereal vs
meat weaning foods - i have found IMO that tho cereal is less nutritious,
babies seem to prefer it at the 6-8 mo stage - mixed with breast milk it is
familiar
to them - meat seems a foreign taste! Commercially made baby food which
include
meats taste horrible - almost rancid, even allowing for an adult palate.
I've found my own boys love finger food meat eg a chicken drum stick or long
chunk of beef, but to get them to eat meat finely chopped is harder until
12mo or older.


another topic - a niece is working in the US at present, and as we have no
breastfeeding promotion-type mechandise I've asked her to get a t-shirt or
buttons etc for me as she returns in December.
Where should she look (other than web sites?)
Thanks
