do i have to buy a microwave

[pud1]

i am starting to think about weaning my dd and am trying to get my head round the equipment needed. i only have a small kitchen and dont have or want a microwave. what are my alternitives for warming home made food. i seem to remember seeing a baby processor that steams, blends and re heats. has any one got one and are they ok

if you wean around 26 weeks, you can feed your child what you eat and an assortment of steamed or roasted or boiled or baked things

you don;t need a microwave.

you can defrost things over night, you can warm things in an oven or over hot water

you also don;t need to blend, most stuff will mash down smooth mixed with teh water you cooked it in or milk.

certainly don't need microwave - weaning ds2 atm and still feel no need for one; we don't have space, but I don't like them anyway. Just warm stuff in small container in bowl of hot water and/or hot water added for any extra rice/ff you might add to the mix. And it's quite fun choosing from the freezer what to defrost for the next day's feasting.

much more important to have freezer space and a blender; don't even need proper steamer if you have metal colander/sieve as you can steam stuff in saucepans

have fun
