to many bananas isnt that good for babies , can constipate them and make them feel bloated and full up when they are not. | | | | Status: Offline

| agghh, i had typed out a long message and Coby turned my pc off!
Cant be arsed to re type it so here is the short version lol
When Charlie and Ethan were little there wasnt so much about food awareness as there is now, so now im really aware of it and try my best to stick to it.
i only by brown or best of both bread, i wont have white anymore, i make sure they have dairy everyday, milk, cheese, yougurts.
All cereals are wholmeal or low saugared ones, i do have jam but i buy the diabectic one.
They have veg everyday and have beans once or twice a week but i get the low salt ones.
We always have lots of fruit in teh house, bananas, melons, pinapple, mangos, we also have dried fruits like cranberrys, redcurrants, raisns etc and i make sure all 3 eat some everyday.
We do have crisps and choc bars in teh house, but i dont let them go mad on them.
did put loads more but i have forgotten lol

| we go mad on them lol, we tend to buy 3 diffrent types and chop them all up and put them in a big tub in teh fridge once a week, we do the same with teh pinapple and mangos. the kids snack on them as do we, really fills you up too coz of all the water.
