When thinking about how we were going to feed Anna, I did some research. I consulted friends and family and also different websites. I also read and used the book Feeding Baby Green, whose ideas and principals I love. 0-6 months: I nursed Anna exclusively. This was not easy at the beginning but I am glad I stuck with it. I used a pump to make bottles for Brady or others to feed Anna, as well. If you have 
I have recently gotten a few questions about what Anna is eating now so I thought I would show her plate from dinner last night.
