Making Homemade Baby Food
Making your own baby food gives you the distinct advantage of controlling what goes into your baby’s sensitive tummy. You determine how much, if any, sugar and spices your baby consumes.

But my husband was handy enough to keep the stress at bay. He bathed, diaper- changed, burped Jeremy after feeding, and soothed him…
