I love you little guy but that might change if you insist on eating all of mummy’s dates!

I was so anxious during the first few months of weaning – worried I was doing it right, using the correct methods, would my the decisions I make now have an impact on him for life? I had already buggered up breastfeeding so I HAD to get this right! I opted for baby led weaning but on my return to work I found I didn’t have the time or patience for it so started to ‘help him out’. This then set off a new worry that I had ruined all my efforts and all the hard work that had gone into mealtimes so far. However, this little guy has a great appetite and was determined to not be a fussy eater regardless of what ‘method’ of weaning I chose. It just goes to show that even though our best efforts might not be perfect they are enough. We are all doing a much better job than we think we are!
