"If I'd trusted my mother, my daughter would have been on formula milk, having a rusk crumbled into her bottle at six weeks and on solids by two months. If I'd trusted my sister, my daughter would have been formula-fed and eating sausages and chips by three months. If I'd trusted my mother-in-law, my baby would have been on formula milk, with honey and whiskey in, from three weeks to help her sleep." WigWamBam
