DS has been at nursery for a couple of weeks; he is 7 months old.

Once per week - according to his activity book - DS has been feed 'fish and chips' or 'burger, chips and beans' for lunch.

I appreciate he is PFB and nobody but me would want to spend an hour baking mackeral fillet with herbs, and braising savoy cabbage for a baby who will, inevitably, tip half of it on the floor.

However. Fish and chips? For a 7-month-old? At some point, he was going to eat these things but I didn't imagine it would be now. I want to tell them to stop ... or to offer to bring in some baked sweet potato wedges ... but am I being one of Those Mummies?!

DS is also already rather, erm, large. 95th centile or thereabouts, and does tend towards gluttony. He has gotten larger since nursery started, and I do wonder if the diet has anything to do with it.

So. AIBU?

That's definitely a feeling I've had to learn to suppress in myself. Similarly with DS2, who also has ASD and until recently lived on brown food. He's just recently discovered the joy of apples and of vegetable burgers!
