I have a 7 week old (adjusted, 13 weeks actual) and haven't had any "bad mummy" stories yet, but I do have one from when I was babysitting my niece and nephew a few years back.
My sister always made her own baby food and would put it in little tiny containers in the fridge. I asked her what she wanted me to feed my niece (my nephew was eating solids on his own at that point) and she said, "Whatever is in the fridge, it doesn't matter."
So I figured I'd pick a meat, a vegetable, and a fruit. They were each in their own container. Everytime I would give her the fruit she would make this face like she hated it. I thought it was strange because it looked good. Like berries.
When my sister and her husband got home later that night, she asked what she ate and I told her about the fruit. She said, "Wait, did it look like berries?" I said "Yeah, and she HATED it. Weird kid."
She says, "um, that was fruit compote that Doug made for crepes. It had Chambord in it."
Chambord has alcohol in it. That's why she kept making the face. I fed my 8 month old niece alcoholic berries. But she slept like a dream that night!!
But in my defense, she had it in the same kind of container as the baby food.
