Greek Yoghurt

Any ideas for things I could mix in Geek Yoghurt to make it more appetising for a 7 month old? I’ve tried blueberries but feel they don’t burst enough to give the juice alone - if that makes sense :/

i’ve mixed with yoghurt so far: homemade apple sauce, homemade blueberry purée and eventually will do peanut butter, but honestly any fruit i’d just blend it in or purée it and add it on top or on the side x

I mix fruit puree or I give my baby yogurt crunch sticks to dip it in

thank you :) how do you make your apple sauce and blueberry one?

Cinnamon was a huge hit with my bean, also fruit purées are a good go

i have a tommee tippee steamer/blender specifically for making purees but it’s really not necessary, for example the blueberries i just blended with a bit of water until smooth, and the apples i peeled and cut, you could boil or steam them until soft and then again just blend them with a bit of water until you get the consistency you want x

Kiwi fruit or pineapple

Peanut butter, coconut, any puree fruit

My little boy LOVES plain yoghurt on his own so it might be worth persevering with that rather than sweetening it so that baby develops a liking for non-sweet flavours 😊

If you need a savoury option my lg loves it as tzatziki with mint and cucumber mixed in. Great with pitta fingers to dip in

Raspberries! I found that mixing them with yoghurt takes away the harsh flavour and my 8 month old loves them. I’ve also done kiwis, pineapple and melon. X

I found my LO hated Greek yogurt, it's kinda sour tasting so I just gave him normal adult yogurt like Onken. Cherry flavour is his fave. It's probably got quite a bit of sugar in it so not everyone's cup of tea but works for us!

I find that frozen fruit is so much better at adding flavours to yoghurts! I pop a bowl of frozen blueberries in the microwave for a few second and then mix it in. They get super juicy and you can really taste them. Peanut butter and banana is also a good combo

We used fruit purées, just the pouches! Or, cinnamon! But now my LO loves plain Greek yoghurt!

I use to puree my own fruits and mix it together.

Is this clever or cruel?

My husband and i were talking and with social media and the internet in general being a terrifying dumpster fire, we are trying to figure out the best way to keep our son safe while still teaching him how to safely be online and moderation.

We landed on the idea of giving him the 90's kid treatment. A computer in the living room for us to keep an eye on what hes doing online, and once we feel hes mature enough to hang with friends without adult supervision he gets a flip phone. When we feel he is responsible enough and he earns and saves up the money for the physical phone, case, and screen cover, then we will be happy to take him to get a smart phone.

I thought this was air tight, but now my brother says its cruel to give a kid a flip phone, and besides he can just use his friends phones at school.

My husband and i remember a time before the internet, and we remember having complete access to something no one understood yet. We saw unspeakable things and are always battling with the urge to put the phone and social media down. I dont want that for my son, especially with his brain so vulnerable still.

Partner no longer wants baby #2

Before our son was born we originally both wanted minimum 2 kids but we were hoping for 3-4. My partner found the birth traumatic to watch and also struggled a lot with the newborn/baby stage. He no longer wants to have any more children and it’s completely breaking my heart. I need another baby. We’ve spoken about it a lot and the options. He said he wasn’t COMPLETELY closed off to it so I asked him to try and work through his feelings and reconsider his decision. He eventually said he definitely doesn’t want another. I know that I will always want one and my feelings will never change. Do we have to break up or does anyone know anything else I can do to help change his mind? Has anyone else’s partner said this and then changed their mind? I don’t want to break up because I adore him and our life together and I’d hate to split up our family for “selfish” reasons and make my son miss out on having both of us together but I just don’t know what to do

Nursery funding

My child turned 9 months last week. I applied for government funded hours nearly 2 months ago and so well within the required timeframe for the April term, however upon receiving my first invoice without the funding applied and having questioned this, I have now been informed that the stretched funding doesn’t start until 4th May.

Has anyone else been told it won’t start until May?

The government site states it should start from April 1st, and so I intentionally set my nursery start and return to work as the start of April for that reason, knowing that I wouldn’t be able to afford the nursery on my sole income without the funding

Jealous of my husband

I’m so jealous of him and it’s making me resentful. We have a ten week old and I’m jealous that he is at work all day. I’m jealous he can leave for lunch and actually eat an uninterrupted lunch. Take a phone call uninterrupted. Chat with a friend he runs in to uninterrupted. Even go to the bathroom when he wants uninterrupted. He comes home from work when he wants. He’s not on a set schedule. Some days are late some are early. It depends on when he’s done. I’m jealous he can come home at 10pm and shower, eat and go right to bed uninterrupted because I already have the baby asleep. He doesn’t have to worry about anything house wise or baby wise because I’ve done it all. Meanwhile I’m covered in puke and crap and smell like rotten milk. When he is home he is VERY active and helpful. So it’s not that. I’m just jealous his world hasn’t changed and mine has I guess. This isn’t something he’s doing wrong so I’m not sure how to get past this. I wish I could keep him home all day because that’s how helpful he is, but I understand he obv needs to work.

Anyone work for the NHS and does 12 hour shifts? How do you work around childcare and your partners job?

He has no respect for anything to do with me.

Husband and I decided to separate 3 days ago. I've been sleeping on the floor in the kids room, and we both have to stay in the same apartment for a while. He wont stop pushing little things and I am reaching my limit. Photos in comments
