Hey mamas! I have an 8 month old who we originally started on purées and i’m now trying to transition to BLW. She is happily eating the food if i’m putting it to her mouth but will gag if the food touched her hands and will not move food from her plate to her mouth. Any ideas of how to fix this?

Can anyone suggest meal ideas for 16 months please? Really struggling to get them to eat any type of meat and point blank refuses any type of pasta. Feel like we’re stuck in a rut of the same few meals on repeat

My son is 17 months and when it comes to getting him to eat food is impossible. I have done everything I’ve made his food look fun, no matter what I do it’s just wasted. He drinks his fluids and he’s yogurt all day. Dinner is about the only time I can actually get him to eat because he is hungry. Is this a stage?

So we've been weaning for the last 3 months now. Everything has been fine all the way through. Our LO didn't eat much at first and alot ended up on the floor. Recently she's been eating alot more and starting to finish what we put in front of her. We seem to now have the opposite problem to what we started with. S...

I’ve been feeding my baby one jar of a fruit or veg puree (alternates daily) a day. And now she’s had a fully solid poop. She’s almost 7 months old. Should I continue the one a day or should I spread them out more. Also her 6oz bottles no longer seem to be enough for her. I even made her a total of 10oz and she’s st...

Hey, Do you guys also face this with your babies?? I have a 10 months old boy. He just doesn't wanna eat. I give him a variety of foods trying different types and textures. He still resists. He just gets the first 3 to 4 spoons (very little in quantity) and turns his head and never one more spoon. He ofcourse h...

I gave my toddler today some mac&cheese w broccoli for dinner and she ate everything but the veggies 🙄

Only once a day here. She’s in the 80th percentile and mainly relies on boobie still

Any ideas on what I can give my little girl for dinner? I'm trying not to blend things as much. She does enjoy finger foods but I'm so scared of choking. Any ideas would be great!!

Howwwww do I get my little one to eat fruit?! I keep offering it and he just won’t even touch it!! The only fruit he’ll eat is black grapes. I’ve been giving him fruit pouches recently so that he’s getting something but I just want him to be healthy! He does eat veg but he’s not always consistent with that either ...

My little one was 6 months old on the 2nd of February however we started weaning him at 5 months (chunky boy who loves his food and was more than ready)! We have been weaning for a good few weeks now, I think we are going through another growth spurt as he’s napping a little more and there has been no filling him ...

My son eats all his meals in our lounge sat on a small table and chairs infront of a telly with us. Sometimes I feel a bit bad when I think of family’s eating at a dining table in a separate room but our house is too small.

Looking for advice from US moms and UK expat mums in America! We’ve just moved to the US (NY state) and I’ve been hunting down similar snacks to back home for my toddler - the likes of Ella’s Kitchen. I’ve hunted down Trader Joes (HUGE FAN OF EVERYTHING!!) and found Earths Best at Walmart to be similar to the kid...

No judgement here but anyone’s kiddos love eating books?! We try to avoid having them laying around as she will just go and munch them. However we want to move her into a toddler bed where she can get in and out herself but can’t have books in the room as she may have a midnight snack.. And yes she does get fed!

Hello! Can anyone help me with a free app or social media channel to follow for baby food ideas? I have a 6 month old baby, but most of the videos that I see on socials are a bit scary for me and I don't agree with what they offer a baby that has no teeth 😅.

My baby is 6 months in less than 2 weeks and we were advised last week by paediatrician to start weaning. He’s been showing signs now for ages, he tries to grab foods from you, stares at you while eating and will smack his lips 🤣 Anyways, we started on Friday and he’s not taking to it well at all. (PLS KNOW I…

I love seeing everyones ideas on here it helped me out alot when my son was a bit younger. He's now 15m, and I'm starting to question if he's eating too much or too little. How do you know how much is enough?
