Jelly for a 10 week old

[DitaVonCheese]

We had DD's third bday party on Saturday and have a load of jelly left over. My mum apparently suggested to DH we should try giving some to DS. DS was 10 weeks the day after the party

We did BLW with DD on the dot of 6 months but had three months of my mum pestering about when we'd be starting with purees before that (and she hated BLW with a passion). Can't believe that we're about to go through it again!

Anyway, thought some of you would enjoy the outrage (though I am slightly tempted to pretend we did it just for the trollery - if it wobbles, it's not a real solid, right? )

I clicked on the thread title, was mullin over whether to dole out a face or be reasonable when suggesting that it wasn't quite a good idea.

What is it with the previous generation and rush to solids?!

And jelly ffs.

if it wobbles, runs, slops or can be mushed its not a solid, therefor it can be given in a bottle from 6 weeks, which will save the mess of spoon feeding

HTH

I've been adding jelly powder to my ds's bottle so he will be ready to have trifle at christmas. That's right isn't it?

oh you lol but my MIL actually fed trifle to my dairy intolerant ds on the weekend - except the fruit bits of course...... for some reason he was then sick everywhere

laughing at 'except the fruit bits'
MILs are a funny lot.

Ri-dic. [hgrin]
