F. J. Roberts Publishing Super Baby Food: Your Complete Guide to What, When & How to Feed Your Baby & Toddler

I got this book many years ago when I was broke and popping out kids like crazy, haha (5 total). I ended up making all of their baby food with minimal equipment, while working fulltime, and loved every minute of it. I saved hundreds of dollars and knew exactly what was in my children's food. I did not read the book cover to cover, I just read the sections I needed, and it worked for me. I buy this book for every new mom I know, and I still think it's the best after all these years. Some reviewers say there are too many details, but I didn't think so when I was using it. I just found the information incredibly helpful, and I still remember much of the author's advice, such as what foods to combine to make a complete protein when you're avoiding meat. Great book!

Ik heb gekocht als extra verdieping voor de voeding van mijn dochter. Maar ik vond de inhoud van het niks voor mee. Te veel puree en te veel persoonlijke keuze niet gebaseerd op wetenschappelijke feiten.

The author rambles a bit, and there are a lot of sections that I did not use (like I really have time to make my own grains!) But I made all of my daughters baby food and this was like my bible, it was a great reference guide with cooking times and instructions for almost every fruit/veggie. Without it I'm sure I would have been guessing and probably would have messed up a lot of batches. I borrowed it from the library for months with my first child, but this time around bought it for my second child because I know how much I will be using it (again).

Great bits of info, advice, and tips. To be used more as a reference guide as topic content is at times scattered. Index is quite handy for finding stuff. Overall, the structure Ruth provides is a welcome respite from an ad hoc approach to weaning and feeding into toddler-years.

Great book for first time mamas! I wanted to keep my baby as healthy as possible once he started on solids and this book was excellent with instructions on not only what the infant can start on which month, but how to prepare at that time! I highly recommend for any mama with small babies!
