A bit about us

Hello - Welcome to George Eating Stuff, this is where George's journey into the world of real food will be documented, a) so the grandparents and other interested relatives can see how he's getting on and b) so I have a record of what George is eating should we have some sort of reaction

To see the rationale behind what we are doing check this out or see George's big cousin Hannah at her blog

So, moving on swiftly I am Jo, and mainly play a supporting role in this epic tale... The real star of the show is George (aka babyG) and his ever expanding diet!

George was born on 07-10-07 (nice symmetry there, well kind of!) and is currently 22 weeks (nearly 23). He is solely breastfed and has never had any formula, not ever. He also is a very sicky baby and is one a variety of medicines to control his reflux (infant Gaviscon, Ranitidine and domperidone - his champagne medicine) He may also have a milk protein intolerance so don't expect any dairy filled meals. It was suggested that we wean the traditional way when babyG was 17 weeks but we decided to wait until he could self feed, so here we are, 22 weeks old - George
can sit in his high chair well and puts everything to his mouth so we though we'd give it a go...

Here is Baby G before he started eating anything, practising for the real thing by eating food in his high chair
