I've tried to respond to your PM twice, but it keeps telling me you don't exist. WTF, Bump? So here is my somewhat abreviated PM back:
Your broccoli story is what made me pause and think that maybe this puree thing just isn't going to work for us. Love that A was so into it - a girl after my own heart.
Thanks for your offer. Did you find it informative/helpful or was it just kind of a curiosity? Do you think it might help my husband realize that giving our baby food and letting him have at it isn't utter insanity? If you found it useful I might take you up on it. If you'd like to drop me an email my address is mountcool2000 (at) yahoo (dot) com.
Thanks again!
Re: alison43
i think it presents a totally different way of doing it. it makes some valid points and raises questions as to why we traditionally spoon feed rather than let baby have at it.
what got me the most was that we have let our LOs self-feed so far--whether bottle or breast--so why do we take that away from them when they start solids?
the pics are also great fun to look at!
i'm sending you email.
