 Great book to get you organised! December 2, 2008
My son is now 1 and started weaning at around 4 months, I followed Gina Ford's weaning guide from the start, although I hadn't previously read anything else by her. At four months I was still all over the place with feeding, but Gina's feeding schedules sorted us into a much better routine. My son eats three good meals a day and eats a wide variety of food. I think the routine that Gina sets out will really pay off when you are cooking for more children (I only have one at the moment). I took one star off because I felt sometimes she is bit advanced with what she expects a wee one to eat. Overall great book!

This book is awful, actually i think the whole contented little baby range of books are rigid and dont treat baby as individual.
I went the baby led weaning route with my 10 month old and it has been fantastic. Had absolutely NO issues with any solids as following the baby's lead. Also no need for all the purees etc.

This book is too rigid for most children and wont allow them to develop healthy eating habits. Children should enjoy their mealtimes and I'm not convinced this is possible when they are dictated to!
Do yourself a favor and do a search for baby led weaning, worked a treat with my daughter!
Very useful September 25, 2008
Like many people who have not read her books, I approached a Gina Ford book with caution - but the things said about her writing are not borne out by this book. I found it very useful as a good guide to when and how to introduce solids. The recipes are very quick and easy and my baby likes them. As with any advice book you need to apply your own common sense and not get hung up on following it to the letter. I had started weaning my baby and was all at sea with when to give her food, how much etc and this book has set me straight. I would definitely recommend it.
 So helpful September 8, 2008
This book was so helpful for something that should be so easy. It helped an awful lot that my daughter was on her routines anyway, and I don't think it really accommodated the fact that people might not be, but apart from that, it was so helpful. Just things like recipes, and meal plans, and what foods when. The case studies were also interesting and would be helpful, I think. They were examples of children with various problems when it came to eating, and what Gina Ford did to help rectify it. The only other thing I can think of, is the lack of portion size examples.
