Homemade v jars/pouches
This past week I've tried LO with a couple of different things - baby rice (she hated it - I'm not suprised, I tried it - tasted disgusting and reminds me of wall paper paste!) carrots (she loved them) and banana (which did not agree with her butt!)I am planning on making my own baby food as I go along but just bought (out of curiosity to see what she would make of mixed flavours)a pouch of Ella's kitchen - sweet potato, broccoli and carrots, she devoured it and her mouth was still opening after it'd gone! Just got me wondering if everyone else was planning on makeing their own food or using jars/pouches...? x

my DS hated the baby rice too (it really is horrid) I've started him on Aptamil creamy porridge and he loves it !!!!!
I've also invested in 4 ice cube trays (cheapie ones from ASDA) and I made some, parsnip/onion/carrot& potato puree and frozen it......I take out a cube and put it in one of his pots ready for the afternoon....
may cheat with some jars when I'm back at work as I will want some in the cupboard just incase !!!!

Ive also given him a plum baby pouch and an ella's kitchen one today. They are great as they dont contain any rubbish and at the moment the pouches do 3 meals or so and r great to add into baby rice to make it more filling.
When lo is older on meat etc i'am going to use the pouches at night and do a batch of 7 meals on the weekend for his lunches. Best of both. Although i'am not going to use jars to many fillers etc.
However, with Felicity.. I think jars will make an appearance more often because Eoins a handful at the moment making having two HARD work! Lol x x
I just saw your post on here debating making your own food or using a jar or pouch. There is an alternative, of reusable pouches. I believe there is one called "Yummi Pouch."
