Death To Gerber (Reblog)

It is only a matter of time before a hit is taken out on Gill Rapley by the US $1.25 billion a year baby food industry. She has declared that pureed foods are completely unnecessary, and that it is healthiest for babies to move directly from mother's milk or formula to solid foods at 6 months with no pureed transition. One interesting thing she posits is that a baby's natural abilities to reach and put things in their mouth, which develop at about 6 months, are the signs that the baby is ready to move on from milk.
