Hi everyone!


So I've started reading the Gill Rapley baby led weaning book and I'm waiting till little P - my first baby - is 6 months till I start giving her some food to try (which is just a couple of weeks away)...


It would be great to hear from other baby led weaning mums and see if anyone would be interested in meeting up over a coffee to share their experiences, and offer support and encouragement for us new to it all?


If you're interested let me know and I'll arrange a time and date.


Thanks Pia

would love to come to this. my little one sleeps till 10.30am so could it not be too early please if at all possible (as we seem to miss most things due to his weord schedule!)


would barry rd christ church cafe be any good (i've never been there but it apparently has a child friendly cafe? any thoughts on it?) or duwlich park cafe?


still trying to get my 9 mth old to like lumpy food!!!

My 8 a bit month old goes through stages of tucking in and then ignoring the food but have a friend with similar age baby who LOVES his food and tucks in 3 times a day with gusto, he seems to prefer the loaded spoon option. My boy prefers to get his hands in even with rice crispies...! Then another friends baby just puts his head near the plate and hoovers it up! We've started meeting once a week at 5pm for them to eat dinner together as although we try to eat with them, talk 'normally' and behave like it's a general dining experience it can get hard when it's just the 2 of you. More than happy to meet up but can only do Tuesday & Fridays (not am) as am back at work.
  • 2 weeks later...

Just wanted to say thanks to those who came along yesterday - it was lovely to meet you and your sweet little ones. Great to see how well the babies can feed themselves too! Thanks for all the tips.


I'm feeling really excited about letting little P try lots of different things now....


Will set up another date in a few weeks time to see how everyone is getting on and hopefully meet a few more mums who couldn't make it yesterday.


Have fun!

    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder    
    • If no one else has a problem, then it sugggests that the delivery person may not be aware of any harm and would respond well to a conversation. It also goes without saying that just because no one else has a problem, that the OP is not valid in raising their issues.
