I just got a call from nursery that at lunch my little one (11 months old) reached over and ate another kids yogurt that was dairy… they rung up to apologise and I know kids will be kids but I feel like this is a red flag considering he has allergy… what would you girls do if anything? My partner said to leave it ...
This is my second baby. I can’t really remember how much my daughter ate from the start but my little boy doesn’t seem to want to eat much. Just wanted to gauge what other babies are like with solids this early on. He was 7 months old last week but came 2.5 weeks early.
My son turned 1 at the beginning of April and for the last week and a bit he’s hardly eating solids 😩 he used to love food but all of sudden has gone off eating and it’s starting to stress me out! I make so many different meals but the only thing he’s okay with is fruit at the moment, not sure if its teething…
Hey all! I'm after some quick lunch ideas! My 13 month old has gone off all her normal lunches - usually has either a sandwich or toast, with egg in various forms, with some fruits or cucumber, or left overs from dinner if its something easy! If anyone can give me some quick and easy lunch suggestions or something...
Why when family asks how your baby is, is the first and only suggestion to ‘try and give him solids’. At a month old he had a big appetite - told to feed him solids. Baby has reduced appetite at 3 months- feed him solids. Thinks baby is teething at 17 weeks - feed him solids. Baby’s sleeps not great when he had...
I need some suggestions of things to put in lunchboxs for days out and nursery. Any suggestions would be great. Could be anything premade or that I need to make it cook as long as can be eaten cold. So far all I can think is Sandwich, cocktail sausages, sausage rolls, cheddars/crisps, fruit, yogurt, cold pinwheel...
Does anyone have any lists of store bought biscuits for step 1 of the milk ladder and the amounts you need to give? All our dietician has sent is the recipe to make them and while I get that’s ‘best’ it’s not always possible! I saw an Instagram post with a list but the only ‘baby’ option was Heinz apple biscotti whi...
The title pretty much sums it up. What are some meals you suggest to feed a 9month old to help them gain weight. So far he's gotten sick every time I've tried to add avocado oil in his food.
Why would my baby daddy ask me to buy him some food for dinner and not his girlfriend? He asked me to buy him food because he had no money in his account and had not been paid yet. And that there were no groceries in their apartment. I guess I’m just confused on why he’s asking me and not his girlfriend. Any th...
I’m a first time mom so I’m figuring everything out at the next stages of her life. Her pediatrician said she can start eating solids at 4 and a half months. Has anyone had this? Or heard of this? I was shocked and thought this is too young…
My baby is 6 months this week and I want to start homemade purées. This may be a dumb question (I’m a first time mom) but if I prepare for example carrot purées should I feed it warm or cold to my baby? What do you all do?
My little one has just turned 5 months old. She can sit up unaided though is wobbly and can sit comfortably in her high chair. She’s on 6oz milk every couple of hours but never seems fully satisfied, though she doesn’t drink more milk in one sitting when offered. NHS advice on weaning is to wait until 6 months. Bu...
My daughter is days away from 8 months and we’re still on purées. I’ll give her a banana in a fruit feeder and even that makes her gag! I’m terrified to try more. Gagging and choking is my biggest fear. I’m on solid starts but even that makes me feel crazy. Gave her an orange the other day, gagged! I know gagging is...
Today we had a four month check-in at the paediatrician and he mentioned that we should start introducing solid foods to my baby not for nutritional purposes but just to introduce him has anyone else been advised to do this? All of the stuff I say Online is to say wait until the six months old 🫣
I introduced fruit purée to my LO. All was going well until someone told me I was supposed to do veggies first and now my child will be a terrible eater. Is there truth to this?
anyone else struggling to get their baby to eat food?? he hates everything i’ve given him. he used to like the baby cereal, that lasted like 3 days. i’m trying to do BLW now because he has interest in what’s on my plate but if i try to feed him baby food, he immediately starts crying before even tasting any of it. i...
She’s always done it when she’s hungry but she seems to be doing it almost constantly now (as of a few days ago). Sometimes she shoves them so far in she makes herself gag! She’s also very drooly. Is this a development thing? Is anyone else experiencing this? It’s too early for teething surely…
I have a very fussy toddler and need some easy lunch and dinner ideas. He doesn’t like pastas and just basically doesn’t eat anymore. I’m really stressed out and feel rubbish because I don’t know what to feed him. Please don’t say feed him what I eat because most days I eat takeaways or freezer food or cereal.
I’m tryna lose weight and am thinking about getting the reduced fat sausages and reduced fat cheese, will my 15 month old be able to have them too? Or will she need the full fats
My son is almost 10 months and we’ve been doing solids since around 5 months. I feel very stuck and don’t really know what to feed him! We’ve been doing a combo of BLW and purees, but I’d love to get some more ideas!
