My little boy has been ill back to back for about a month now since nursery and his appetite took a real hit. I had to revert back to pouches for a while because it’s all he would eat alongside milk. He used to be such a good eater but will still now barely touch anything. Has this happened to anyone else? To top...

My son is 2. He will not eat. I’ve tried everything I can think of. He is hysterical every time food is put in front of him. I’m sick of hearing ‘just give him more of what he will eat’. I can’t do that because all he wants is crisps. I’m also sick of hearing ‘he wont starve himself’ because yes actually he will. I...

I’ve started weaning my my baby with banana porridge in the morning and he seems like he hates it. It’s 3 days in and he screws his face up when he tastes it and bats my hand away when I try to feed him. Is this normal/should I continue with it?

I receive wic but since my baby is 7 months they lowered the amount of formula she could get each month so now I’m at only 7 cans each month and she runs through them half way into the month , I’m a busy mom in the morning as I do nails full time until my boyfriend gets home , I try to give her purées when I can bu...

Okay so my baby girl is 4 months on Sunday I can’t remember for the life of me when I start solids my oldest is 11 now ! How many times do they eat? Can I give her something now ?

My baby just turned 1, but started to eat solids around 8/9 months. I tried to give her nuggets, but she just used to throw it on the ground, lol. Anyways, now she's eating nuggets. Maybe she didn't like the texture and had to use to it?? Anyways else baby was the same?

Any advice of lacation supplements? My son is 18 days and eats alot! My barely keeping up with him. I can't have the brownies or cookies I have celiacs so it's gotta be gluten free

Hey guys my baby’s 5 weeks old yesterday and he was born 8lb 3oz so wasn’t a small baby but not particularly big either. I don’t know his weight now but he looks a lot bigger and is easily in 0-3 months with his feet touching the ends so I assume he’s around 10lbs but he eats 6oz!! I thought this was normal until I ...

My baby will be 10 months old on the 8th, just wondering what anyone else’s feeding schedules look like for their babies to see if I’m on the right track (He eats about 3 purées a day, one being a protein & vegetable. Also drinks around 20-24oz a day)

Hello ladies! I’m having issues with having my two year-old eat. He will only have snacks and mashed potatoes. He used to be a very good eater before and now he just won’t even try! I can’t keep feeding him poptarts, crackers, Cheerios and mashed potatoes every day. He doesn’t even like regular cow milk he only drin...

The kids have been complaining for yrs that Sunday when they go to moms she doesn't give them dinner they leave our house at 3 and make it to moms at 5:30ish but she says dinner is our responsibility so a while ago I made them “bag lunches” to have for dinner at moms it was literally a sandwichs fruit chips and drin...

I’m finding mixed messages online when I try to search if it is safe to use baking soda and baking powder in things like pancakes and muffins for baby led weaning. Both these contain sodium which is what we are trying to avoid when we don’t add salt isn’t it? I’d love to hear about other mamas‘ takes on this. Are yo...

Anyone else struggling to get little one to eat anything? Mine used to love his food but now is very picky, won’t touch anything new, sometimes won’t touch things he usually loves! I’m just at a loss. There’s been a lack of any routine lately due to just life being difficult for us at the moment but I’m not sure if ...

Hey girliesssss so my 14 month is a great eater and I’ve been trying new things but does anyone have any advice or suggestions?

I’m hosting a kids birthday party 2-5pm, do I need to have proper food?

Basically my toddler doesn’t eat. I know toddlers go through a fussy stage but this has been months. Some days she’ll literally just have yoghurts. She won’t try anything new. I offer 3 meals a day plus snacks and she’ll just cry and refuse them. Do I contact the HV or the GP??

Is everyone's 10 month old having 3 meals a day everyday? Some days my daughter has two meals and sometimes she only has breakfast as she's not that interested in the food
