At home I use my handy little mini chopper to grind up food to a small spoonable consitancy. New parents are often paranoid with this notion, but I have been blessed with very healthy children.

No little jars, and your kids get used to eating what the rest of the family is eating.

With the next two we just fed soft table foods from the same menu as the rest of the family. Sometimes, I think we just follow the crowd instead of asking, "Now, WHY are we doing this and is it really necessary?"Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02763405062458388462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006405629844665542.post-45645276182060072972007-08-31T17:40:00.000-05:002007-08-31T17:40:00.000-05:00I've mostly made my own baby food.

Our doctor recommends letting her pick herself also to ensure that she's developmentally ready for the food before she actually eats it. We also limit what she's offered because of allergies. It's nice to know she's getting *real* food too :)Carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04253120851598570692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3006405629844665542.post-91325271025992399432007-08-31T14:43:00.000-05:002007-08-31T14:43:00.000-05:00My doctor actually advised this.
