I’m not sure if I’m being too hard on myself, but I am absolutely terrified of starting my almost 8M old on solids. Tonight I tried to smash a banana & give him small pieces. He gagged which I know is part of learning to swallow, but it was followed by excessive drooling and that’s the part that made me completely s...

My son will be 2 in July, and he has always been a GREAT eater. The only thing up until now he hasn’t really liked is beans. He’s always eaten all his fruits and veggies without complaint, and veggies are often the first thing on his plate he’ll eat. Within the last couple weeks, fruits and veggies apparently disgus...

I need help with weaning my 16-month-old. I've tried going cold turkey a couple of times to no avail. He feeds throughout the night and I'm exhausted. He also still feeds on demand l, I tried to cut his morning feed out but he will not eat until I feed him. He also pulls on the top or put his hands down my blouse wh...

Weird one..... I think my little lady hates the bumbo chair, possibly the high chair too and will keep her mouth closed near enough the whole time and will make sure everything flies off the table so she doesn't have to eat it and then tries to lift herself out. If I hold her on my hip and feed her like that she is...

Looking for an easy sauce recipes that could go on pizza. My son is a picky eater he’s 14m right now he likes pizza and I want to make him healthier pizza. So I would love a recipe thank you. What kind of crust and a sauce recipe with veggies in it.

My little one is almost 8 months and we are having serious issues with him eating. He has recently, as in maybe the past week or so, refused to eat any solids at all. He will close his lips as tight as he can and refuse. As to formula, he also eats so little. The highest amount he has eaten in the past week has b...

I'm like 37 weeks pregnant and I have a 12 month old.. her diet consists of mostly pouches and baby snacks and I'm feeling really bad about it but she eats so much now not being on formula anymore. She eats at least 1 good solid food meal a day, usually dinner, but I'm also so worn out I can't be bothered to cook 3 ...

My boy has taken to weaning much better than I expected and within a month we could go onto 3 meals as he eats everything I put in front of him. He gets excited to eat and digests well - plenty of wet and dirty nappies , no difference to before weaning except slightly fewer poos (no constipation luckily!). No reflux...

Little man might be ready for solids. My home nurse said if I think he’s ready to start with cereal mixed with breast milk. Which cereal do I start with? Rice or oatmeal? Baby is 5 months. Pic for tax

My 3 year old just pointed to the kitchen pantry and said “that’s the pantry! It’s full of pans! And trees!”

Goldfish is still pretty salty I can't find a good cracked wheat one Wondering what brands are nutritious

How many times a day are you giving your 7-8 month old solids/purees? Just curious!

Question, how are you girls managing with the cooking? If I put her down with toys she screams to be held, if I hold her she launches herself at the pan. I cannot think of a solution 😅😂 anyone found a solution? *we don’t do screen time*

My little one has been good with solids since he started at 6 months. We've been doing a mix of purees and finger food since the beginning and he's usually given everything a good try. The last week or so he's been really fussy sometimes refusing whole meals. Has anyone else had this and got any advice?

Hey wanting some inspiration for snacks and lunch from others (ideally not too much prep time plz and not too complicated🤣)

Has anyone given there babes honey yet? I was going to make something with honey bbq sauce and I’m still scared?

How’s it all going for you and baby, what are they eating and how many times a day?

When you give your baby pasta do they ever actually eat any or just play with it?

Anyone give there little ones 12+ meals? My boy is 9 months and I’m thinking of trying them this week.

Hello, I was wondering if my 10 month can eat fish fingers? I know it's processed food but I'm struggling with meal ideas
