Yes, for first solid foods I used Gina Ford as well as its really good in the how, when and what.......once you've started and when you are a bit more relaxed, then move onto Annabel Karmel.
Hi mamaS how have you been? I hope things have been going well.
The Annabel Karmel books are great, especially if you want to prepare fresh foods for your baby.
Don't be in too much of a hurry to wean, leaving it until 6mths is much safer and gentler on their delicate digestive systems.
