I agree, thats a great book.. so is Gina Ford(I think) - The little contented book of weaning.

[Kina]

Is the Gina Ford one regimented?

I love all the Annabel Karmel books that we've got. Never used the meal planner but for the recipes

Can anyone give me some tips on what to buy when you start weaning?

I seen in boots loads of different gadgets next to the weaning foods liek pasta etc

[Jo]

What gadgets do you mean hun?
Only thing you need to begin with is plastic spoons and small dishes

this is quite a nice set, wish i had seen them when i was weaning Jack

When you get on to doing puree etc.. then flexible ice cube trays or small pots with lids are a must

^^^^ that site has loads of stuff from cups to spoons etc.. gives you a good idea, boots do good range of things as well
