Is my baby ready for solids?

My mum (who's had 12 kids) says we should start weaning when DS starts eating food from our plates and stops sleeping through the night. The other day, when I popped out to get some fags (ok, ok, I know but I was only gone a couple of hours), I came back and DS was sitting there and the kabab was gone from my plate. Also, it's now taking at least 4 shots of bacardi in his bottle to get him to sleep through at night these days. Now it could have been one of the staffies that ate the kabab. I'm not sure. Should I wait? What do you think? He's already 2 weeks and I'm worried if I don't start now, he'll never develop a taste for the chippie which could cause all kinds of problems later on.

Velcro?! What?! :o

If you've got older ones start letting them watch horror films as early as possible (bubba could watch too, it's never too soon). It'll toughen them up, you don't want scardy-cat bairns do you? And I find telling them Freddy or Jason will come get them if they don't stop being naughty is a far better deterrent than the naughty step.

(Genuinely know someone who used to tell her kids Chucky would get them if they weren't good).
