Anyone baby incredibly interested in what you’re eating/drinking?

My baby isn’t quite 5 months old but for the last month he is obsessed with any food/drink he can see. If hes on my lap he watches every bite/sip and is now starting to grab at it. I also noticed today that he was shouting at whatever I was eating across the room! I let him suck a bit of banana the other day when ...

Not eating dinner

I have one son, who is now 1! However, he barely eats any dinner for some reason recently. More or less, he mainly just always wants to throw it around on his tray or drop it on the ground for our dog. We've cut out any afternoon snack to see if that makes him hungrier at dinner, but there isn't any change. We're r...

Is it okay if my 8 month olds don’t eat baby food every day?

Some days they are just not interested in baby food and only want their bottles and maybe will eat a lil crunchie or two. I’m a first time mom so I don’t know if this is okay. I don’t want to be underfeeding my twins. 🙃🙃🙃

weaning - 9 months

So my LO is currently almost 8 months and is exclusively breastfed. I haven’t started weaning him into food yet because he’s not ready in the sense that he can’t sit unsupported, and he isn’t interested in my food (but he does put everything in his mouth toys wise!) and apparently they are the two signs that a baby ...

Dinner refusal

My 10mo has just started to refuse his dinner. We’ve been lucky that from the start he’s taken really well to solids and he will still gladly scoff his breakfast and lunch but the last 2 weeks he just is uninterested and sometimes very upset at the idea of eating dinner. We can’t work it out as it doesn’t make a dif...
