Messy Mouthfuls is also known as Introducing Solids

Introducing solids, or family foods, to a baby is an exciting time for parents, but also comes with a lot of worry as to the when, how and what to feed them. This is a big topic and we have a lot of information on our website, but in our chat today we’ll be looking at the main areas that parents have concerns about. We’ll start with the ‘when’ of introducing solids.

You're also welcome to bring any breastfeeding questions you have or just come to meet other parents to share the journey with!

All are welcome, and it is a great spot to meet with other mums. All the family is welcome, including grandparents as well as friends.

Don't worry about arrival time either, you are welcome throughout the morning

***COVID-19 UPDATE: A few things to please remember for face to face group meetups during COVID-19.

* Please thoroughly wash or sanitise hands (both little people and big) before entering.

* Social distancing guidelines are to be followed (e.g. no hugging, keeping 1.5-2m away from each other where possible)

* Do NOT come to a group meetup if unwell.

* Mums bringing food and drink along, please avoid sharing.

* Records of attendance will be kept (per our usual procedures) to ensure if anyone does test positive to COVID-19 after the meeting that others in attendance can be notified easily.

* If a mother or her child appears sick on arrival at a group meeting, then the volunteers have the right to turn them away.
