My LO is 19 months and the past 3 days he just wanted fish for dinner doesn’t want scrambled eggs in the morning anymore doesn’t want pasta doesn’t want anything new just wants to keep having the same and not eating much either ….

We’re on day 4 of weaning & my baby hates everything :( we’ve tried carrot, broccoli, cauliflower and green bean purées mixed with my milk but he ends up hysterically crying! Has anyone else had this?

Ok guys … how❓❓❓ Think we’ll stick to puree / mashing and finger foods 🤣

My daughter will be 6 months on the 7th and just wondering how others started their littles. Ftm just unsure of where to start when doctor says we can start solids.

Okay so my baby turned 1 on the 10th and her eating habits haven’t changed. She prefers sweets and when I try to give her anything savory or veggies she’ll eat a bit and then toss the rest on the floor. I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong I feel like even if I puree the veggies she still won’t have it I tried ...

Anyone else’s baby seem to be getting more fussy with age?! My LO would try most things to start with now I’m struggling to get him to eat anything other than cheese, yoghurt or his snacks (smoothie melts etc) Unsure if it’s teething related or I’m doing something wrong or it’s normal 😫

Sitting here a nervous wreck watching her eat a sausage. She just keep putting the whole thing in her mouth pulling funny faces gulping really hard is this normal 😩 will this anxiety ever go 🫣

At my whits end with eating. Spits out or blank refuses most stuff I give him. Try to keep it varied but since turning one it’s been really difficult (nearly 14 months old). He used to eat everything. I know he’d demolish a pouch but I try not to give them him

So my little girl started keeping food in her mouth for hours after meals and even snacks, she refuses to talk which is so strange for her she is such a chatterbox, I got worried and asked my health visitor and she hasn’t heard of it either so now I’m quiet worried. It’s like she’s eating and refuses to swallow what...

Hello April mamas! Hope you and your 6+ month olds are doing well. I started solids a couple weeks ago for my 6.5 month old and decided to go the baby-led-weaning (BLW) route, offering him finger foods as well as doing a bit of responsive feeding. I thought it would be nice to document the meals and recipes for ...

Now Id like to get some more ideas on meals to feed my little :) Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated!! What does your babies diet look like, including formula/ whole milk/ bre...

Feel like I'm maybe not doing this properly. At the moment baby is only have one puree in the morning and the rest is milk through out the day. Should I be testing allergens etc already? How many times a day should I be giving her food to try? I thought it was one new food a day and try the same food for a few days ...

He's had awful diahorrhea, and refusing most solids. But after 3 days, we're wondering how to encourage him to eat more solids. Should we keep breastfeeding so much?

Hey ladies. Baby is 7 months now. I offer her food once everyday and sometimes when eating dinner. I also end up missing some days as its been overwhelming. So just continue EBF. Anyway. Most times i offer her anything (BLW or mashed) she doesnt really take it to her mouth and want to even try it. I try sometimes ...

Family member didn't realise not to give any to our son and I'm panicking

What has everyone done first to start weaning? I started with plain oat porridge which she likes but when I try a veg or fruit purée she just gags and refuses more! Am I doing it wrong?

Anyone else’s toddler really struggling to eat food lately? All her favourites she turns her nose up at. It’s so frustrating as she’s now waking overnight because she’s hungry. I’ve tried everything.🫠

How many ounces should a 6 month old consume along with solids?

Dude wtf do I do my toddler won’t eat anything I give him…. All he wants is snacks. This morning I cut up a bagel for him, fried an egg and cut up banana and he won’t eat any of it I’m about to go ballistic he wastes all our fucking food should I call his DR?
