It's okay.

Weezl is okay. Shes very busy at the moment over on her other thread - the one about food on the "How Much have you saved? sub-forum.

On the Forums index page - scroll down to the sub-forum that is 2nd up from the bottom of the webpage (entitled "How much have you saved?").

OR click on her "name" (ie to the left of this box) and scroll down to click for "other posts" by her and you will find her latest posts on that.

Makes me think I could be paying off more, thoif I try and save anymore money hubby may divorce me hehe, good luck, and baby news soon...I'm very broody...not good

Sorry if it's already been mentioned, but what do you feed (or plan to start feeding) your young toddler? Especially for snacks?

My little one is now 20 months, and loves weetabix cake - he normally has it as a breakfast snack before nursery. (where he gets cereal and toast for actual breakfast) Other cheapish snacks for him are value raisins, value ham (rolled and sliced), cheese cubes (mature value/what's on offer)

But he eats mountains of fruit! He could eat half a punnet of strawberries in one sitting, if I let him. He has tinned pineapple, peaches and apricot (own brand not value) but everything else is fresh. So that's a big expense for us. Try telling a toddler that he can only have one strawberry - because that's the size of his hand!

We did baby led weaning (which was very cheap as he ate what we ate) and trust that he knows what he wants and when he is full.

I'm watching this thread with interest and inspiration.

Sounds quite similar to our daughter. I do a HM fruit loaf which works well as a snack. Also planning to grow fruit when we get the garden sorted out.
