    lol I think there is too much salt n sugar in them and fibre in most (don't care about iron though. oh!! just remembered what I helped Weezl with! I was thinking ironing not iron the mineral :doh:) BUT noone else agrees with me and as shreddies are already given it's no 'worse' :)

    Just don't tell Ed because he won't be getting any :o

    The is 0.04g of salt in the portion Toby had for breakfast. That doesn't seem high? How much in a banana?

  • Glam - he looks like a little chunk in those photos but in real life he is itsy bitsy!!! Still gorgeous though!


    Loving the confused face csh!! Very cute.

    Have you noticed how many childrens clothes have characters with one eye bigger than the other?? I have to be really careful because hubby really hates it if Benjamin wears something with one big eye, he says it freaks him out :rotfl::rotfl:

    How much salt do we need?
    Our daily intake of salt should be less than 6g (2.4g sodium) – we actually need much less than this. Most people in the UK currently consume more than 6g, but there are simple ways to cut down on our intake.

    Banana = 1 mg sodium
    467 mg potassium mg = milligram

    Dont know how this fits in with babies :)

    hehe he is a chunk! 16lbs now!

    I just popped him in his bouncy chair while I went to the kitchen to make a drink - I rarely strap him in unless he's eating. I was gone 2 mins - he was on the floor when I came back!!!!! :eek:


    Just put him back in and am watching him - he's arching his back until he slides off! Little b00ger!

    csh - loving the expressions! So cute!

    MFD - do you mean the big doggy eye patch?! :rotfl:

    It is 2g of salt a day for littlies - it was on that Panarama thing with AK.
    AK said mothers were uneducated if they didn't know that :cool:

    Like we would know unless someone tells us!

    ooh lovely pictures!! must go get some too :D

    csh Chris said K is a lovely boy :)

    Feely - no idea tbh, I look at the figures per 100g so I know what % of the food is what, our malted milk biccies are 0.22% salt, wotsits are 1.98% and special k is 1.15%
    don't worry about it, no one bar me seems to so [strike]maybe[/strike] I'm being over cautious
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.
