My eldest was exclusively breastfed til 7 months when she stopped herself and we fed her via spoon from 6 months, under instructions from the health visitor. Now 8, she eats like a sparrow! My son had health issues and we were told he needed special formula at 4 months, and also to be weaned onto solids. Again, we spoon fed due to his age and it was a nightmare! He would scream as soon as he saw his bowl and spoon. From 6 months he was self feeding but the damage was done. He is 3 now and food is a major issue. <br />My youngest is 12 months and we have put all of our previous experiences to good use! We are still breastfeeding and she has been self feeding since 6 months. She eats almost anything and now i finally understand baby led weaning! <br />I wonder how this writer will feel once her babies actually start on solids?!

She thinks that with purees she will control the variety of foods and the amount eaten. She doesn't yet know that you can't and shouldn't force a baby to eat. Even spoon fed babies will turn their heads and spit out what they don't want.

These are just opinion articles that, to my mind have no value. I just hope that the readers of the DT will ignore them. I imagine she has a lot of issues surrounding her childbirth and breast feeding and now she got it all out of her chest. I hope that insulting midwives, nurses, health visitors and those who are in favour of BLW, including Gill Rapley has served her as a bit of therapy. I hope it was worth it Anna!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3102141287849407838.post-55161031921687118262013-02-22T23:21:31.419+00:002013-02-22T23:21:31.419+00:00Wow!
