    Luc, I've recently been through the weaning thing. At first I used a teaspoon of baby rice mixed with baby milk, after a week or so I started doing half a reduced sugar rusk mixed with milk. Then we moved on to ice cube trays of stuff like carrot with potato or chicken with carrot and potato. I make up batches now of stuff, I do cook seperate pots of food for Lily because I'm worried about the salt in gravy mixes and stuff, I tend to get the baby gravys which are in the baby food aisle. I warn you, one potato, a bit of carrot and chicken blends down to a huge amount. I use some pots I got from Amazon to store the food in the freezer just because ice cubes are too small for gusto lily. I buy puddings though, I like the ones which are just fruit with nothing else added. For quick meals I use the Ellas kitchen ones, these are fab, lily loves them but won't entertain the jar foods at all.

    Nothing like being late in replying, but Apricot Custard!!! When my two were small ( about a thousand years ago!) it was...'one for you, three for Daddy:D

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
