Just been told by DD that DGC will be weaned by using baby led weaning! What the heck is this. Was ready to purée her food etc - thinking I’m not going to get involved in this. DD can bring what she wants us to give her to eat. Am I being ridiculous and out of touch ?

I did feed our children with pureed food, and the DGC had some too ( but more cut up solids) but I doubt as a baby that I was given much in pureed form, as there were no prepared baby foods around then.So apart from mashed up potato, and carrots, runny boiled eggs and porridge, and fish cut up and cooked in milk (poached) I think other foods would have been cut up solids given to me to munch on.

Iam64 -I just chat with parents and grandparents as we pick up our children / grandchildren and hear the means and groans about homework and being tired after a day at work, among other things. I reckon children will grow up eating what they like and refusing what they don’t like however they’re weaned.
