review 1: This book is great for starting on the road to homemade baby food! It has wonderful recipes for slightly older babies (those who can eat mixed foods) and is full of good hints and tricks. However, keeping it from getting a full five stars is that it has inaccurate feeding guidelines. It is well known that an infant should start on vegetables before fruits, and is recommended by doctors and experienced parents to start them on green vegetables before any other vegetables, as they are the least sweet. This book encourages you to feed your child fruits from the beginning, which can lead to a picky eater, a child who refuses to eat their vegetables, a predisposition to choose junk foods (especially sweets) over healthful foods, and many other poor eating habits. Beyond that is... moresue, however, this is a good springboard for parents who want to feed their child the best foods possible!
review 2: A good guide, but nothing groundbreaking. I used it for a few ideas, that's about it. I disliked that the author presented info as if it was set in stone, like what month you should introduce foods. Sure you should wait on some, but it's not going to matter if your baby eats broccoli a couple weeks before the author okays it. She is also downright wrong about juice. Several different healthcare sources have advised me to hold off on juice until my baby is much older than what this author recommends in order to prevent cavities and because juice is not nutritionally the same as eating fresh fruit (the exception is prune juice, which we use sparingly for constipation). Anyway, this has some nice ideas and generally has good advice, just take it with a grain of salt. less
