Jars - does anyone else feel guilty?

[outwoodmum]

I feel hugely guilty about using jars for DS2, even though I buy organic, and have begun mixing in fresh stuff. Can anyone make me feel better about it?

I felt hugely guilty - but then justified it by the fact that I was going to have to go back to work at 6 months, and that I was spending all my time with DD enjoying her...not slaving in the kitchen as soon as I got home.

Probably a shoddy excuse to some people, but worked for me

Not too sure what I'll do next time... not working now!!

I feel guilty using jars for ds1 (not hugely though) but i know there was no alternate cant explain the reason. Like you i aslo used to mix it with home mades.

If it weren't for us using jars... think of all the unemployed people from the baby food factory!!

We could be contributing to their families going hungry...

No. I don't allow anyone to make me feel guilty about my parenting choices.

A pal only ever home made stuff which was great but then her DD would never eat anything else. So when we were on days out and for handyness I could nip into a shop and feed my DD cold nosh out of a jar, my pal had a terrible time trying to warm up her home made stuff.

No guilt here either, I do a mix of homemade and jars as well

Thanks folks. I'm happy with mjy choices now, but the pressure is always on. Good point, Pagan, it'll make those outings much easier!
