...only one of those things isn't true.

Anyway, loads of super-interesting things here. Clara was a Canadian paediatrician who procured (and I think procured was the word) 15 infants of weaning age in the 1930s and experimented by letting them feed themselves from a range of foods to see if they would end up healthy or not. Oooooh, there's so much here to gladden the heart of a BLWer. Not to mention the definition of weaning age as 'between 6-11 months', which rather puts the 'these guidelines change every week' mob's gas in a peep. As we say in Bonnie Scotland.

Of course, it's a little on the woolly side because there's no actual data, but it's fascinating stuff. And the ethics of it, my god, it would never be allowed today or at least I bloomin' well hope so.

And to those of you who are thinking... 'didn't I read this post before..?' Well, you did. And somehow this crummy blogware deleted it. I've noticed it happening elsewhere, too. First they shut me down for exceeding bandwidth and now this. Ladies, I fear the day that this software and I part company is fast approaching.
