I was talking to my lovely friend at work this morning when he mentioned he?d bought baby rice for his son. His son is 10 weeks old.
He and his girlfriend are young first time parents to this gorgeous little boy. Their health visitor has advised them to give the baby rice from 14 weeks. They don?t know any different and the health visitor is their only source of professional help.
I don?t want to tell them how to raise their little boy and I didn?t do very well this morning with my advice. I think I said something like 'No no no, please don?t give your little boy that its wrong'. But I just want to show them why they should wait.
I?ve had a quick google and found a few things to print out to show him but I just wondered if anyone had anything to add. I?ll print this thread out to give him tomorrow.
Thanks.
