Back in MY day...

"You could start solids at 2months. Just put a bit of Farax in their bottle with a bigger hole made in the teat"... from the mouth of P's great grandmother, aged 80(ish)

Yep and that's why I don't ask for your opinion on feeding my child, and I just nod and smile

My MIL and SIL told me the same thing, the saddest thing is that SIL's DD is only 2........so clearly this is how she was fed. No wonder they had to buy a bigger car seat before the recommended age.

Dp's Nana told me I should be giving my (then) 6 week old baby water, instead of breast feeding him so much!
