Hi mn, 2 health visitors have given me conflicting advice. One said I shouldn't use packet/jar mixes to give the baby, one said it's fine in moderation, and I was told to throw away my blender and mash everything up now. I was also told to reduce the baby's milk intake (almost 6 months old) but I think she's too young to reduce her milk, the baby is mu youngest of three but my middle child is 8 so it's like starting again, in such a flap over it all. Also I have made a few ice cube trays of purees so I would like to use them

Thanks all, any recommendations for a beaker? Sorry to keep asking. I have tried a tommee tippee one but my dd is dribbling it all out although I know it's all new to her, just wondered if there was perhaps a better one?

I found it took a lot of trial and error to find a beaker that DD would drink a decent amount from, we bought loads. The one that finally worked was the basic Boots sippy cup, cost about a £1.

We found an open doidy cup much better
