My 16 week baby is already watching me eat and even tried to grab a chicken nugget off her brother 😅 by whacking it. Once she hits 6 months I think she’ll be a fan

My LO is 8 months and on 2 meals, breakfast and dinner. She eats loads at breakfast if it's porridge/yogurt/weetabix but barely actually eats much at dinner cause its more finger food. Today and yesterday I've given fruit and yogurt with her dinner and she's pretty finished her plate and not needed a bottle straigh...

Wondering if you have ever given your little one fast food yet, like McDonald’s?

Hi What baby rices/oats have people used for CMPA babies? So many seem to have traces of milk in them! Thank you!

My daughter has her two year check next week and i'm so nervous. At her one year check she measured too small (height) and they said if she doesn't grow by 2 they will have to put her on a controlled food diet to prevent obesity, please bare in mind my daughter is just dinky and she isn't chubby at all! It's made m...

Is there a time of day to stop giving food? Like later on in the afternoon?

Can you please suggest containers for lunches on the go and also some ideas for a 2 year old who doesn’t like sandwiches! Do you use ice packs if you’re going to be out for a few hours? Thank you

Feel like the worst mum in the world! My little girl is 9.5 months old and she started nursery on Tuesday.. in the same nursery as her big sister who is 2.5! 2 days in a row nursery have rang me saying she won’t eat much of the food and they aren’t sure what to do with her.. we have no choice but to send her as I ...

My son is due to start at his childminders at the end of the month 😥 we’re making his own lunch box for him… I need some super easy and simple lunch time ideas that I can probably make/prepare the evening before.

Can anyone give me some inspiration for high calorie foods to give my baby. We are doing purees, not BlW. She’s below where she should be weight wise due to cmpa and on special milk. X

It's now end of second week for my lo nursery. He goes Mon, Tye, Wed only. He already had his first cold, still has blocked nose. This week he cried every morning in when I dropped him off. He doesn't really eat there except fruit and snacks. Food is very similar to my cooking and to what he eat. Is this normal? He ...

I’ve been trying to wean my 7 and a half month old for 6 weeks now and she will not eat or even try a single food. She just will not open her mouth and if I have ever tried to quickly put a little taste in her mouth when she’s slightly opened, she immediately spits everything out. I have tried a mixture of finger ...

What are some breakfast lunch and dinner ideas I can make for my 8 mo boy?

My baby is 8 months and has been slowly eating solids since 6 1/2 months. We are now at 2-3 meals a day plus formula in between. Its easy when I am home 4 days out of the week but I work 3 days a week and she goes to a baby sitter. We send her with formula and Gerber oatmeal cereal but thats it and the baby sitter j...

Not being conscious about the food you’re introducing to your child is seriously setting them and you up for failure. Another hot take: if a neurotypical child will only eat chicken nuggets Mac n cheese etc that is the parents fault 😳 That being said: ofc the occasional fast food and treat is fine. But this…

Is your toddler so fussy and gets bored easily with his/her meals. My girl is so picky and won't have anything. She literally lives on water! What do you ladies do?

My little one has just turned 19 weeks. Shes having a roughy 200ml of milk around 5 times a day, sometimes she’ll have a 6th bottle but not always. This does seem to satisfy her however she watches anyone who eats like a hawk, and then tries to eat her hands as she’s watching and dribbles lots! I couldn’t finish m...
