to me it is just so normal that I get taken aback when ppl question me, or ask if it is ok if the baby is ok eat that. DD2 grabbed a lamb chop from my plate and started gnawing on it at 4.5 months. totally unprompted and so i followed her lead. the only puree she ate really was from those squeezy packs when we travel hahaha.

my mothers group would get freaked out but with me being a 'homebirther' they just let me be and put it down to another crazy hippy thing hahaha.
