Refusing food

My 19 month old has never been the best eater. She would be a bit picky at home, but at nursery, she would eat all the food offered. However, recently, she's not been eating her food at nursery, apart from breakfast and snacks! And at home she's not eating the usual foods she would eat. I will keep offering new food...

Overstimulated when grocery shopping

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I get so overstimulated when I try grocery shopping with my daughter that I can’t focus on my list and what I’m trying to get and I start sweating and stressing out, but my boyfriend thinks I’m crazy. Is this abnormal or do a lot of other moms feel this too?
