But, yes, we pretty much gave DD whatever we were eating. MIL gave her yogurt once and I flipped out (privately and on here) so I ended up buying it for her to ensure she wasn't getting artificial sweeteners. (Again, a control-freak kind of thing for me.)
Also, if you've never taken one or if you need a refresher, I would recommend taking an infant CPR course. Just in case and I hope you should never need it. (DH and I had to take one as part of DD's discharge plan when she was a newborn, but I am pretty sure that this isn't standard for a normal, healthy infant.)
