Does anyone know of any vitamins or something I can give my 21 month old for him to eat?

He used to eat so much and out of nowhere he stopped 🤦🏻‍♀️

Is anyone else's little one terrible at eating at the moment? My little girl literally needs to be hand fed, or she won't eat even though she says she's hungry 🙈 The threenager stage is not a joke either 😳

Is anyone else’s little one hardly eating? We’ve had a cold cough few weeks ago then around a week of being better and now poorly again.

Can anyone please help or even just sympathise 😅 My LG is 9 months and we are so behind with weaning. The only thing she will eat is porridge. I’ve tried lots of individual veggie purées and the only thing she took to was sweet potato. Even fruits she isn’t interested in. Weetabix was also a no. I know it’s all…

Are you doing this around 24 weeks or 6 months to their birthday? I know the signs of readiness but wondering what everyone is classing as ‘around 6 months’ ☺️

This morning I have tried a hot cross bun (didn’t like it and got thrown on the floor) and weetabix with banana.…

My LO had been eating well, mostly BLW but would also take a spoon if offered. He is usually very curious, would always inspect by squishing between his fingers and try pretty much anything offered to him. But suddenly the past 3-4 days he’s just gone off his food, refusing to try it at all. He’s got a cold but then...

Is anyone else’s 20 month old toddler being so picky and rarely eating? My son is starting to not like his favorite foods, looks at the spoon before being fed and says “stop”. He’s literally living off of milk, Cheetos and Mac and cheese because that’s all he’ll eat but hey at least it’s something right? Let me know...

I got to a point where I would feed him outside but now we're having work done to the garden before summer I don't wanna leave him out there so he can eat something he's not meant to. He's only just turned 1 and still thinks everything is food. My li...

I know this is such a silly question but we are going to Butlin’s just me and my toddler (almost two) and I have no idea how to navigate the buffet for breakfast/dinner. Did you guys just carry your child in one hand and plate up the other? I’m worried he will try and grab the hot food/plates

My 10-month-old continues to refuse solids, and I’m at a loss. Initially, we thought it was teething, but this has been ongoing for months without improvement. Our midwife team suggested reducing her milk intake to encourage her appetite, but this has backfired—she’s now waking twice at night and still showing no in...

Any mama's on here that started puree early? My son pediatrician said if I wanted to star introducing food now I could.
