HELP!! My daughter turns 2 in May and is the most picky eater I’ve ever known. She’s been this way since a little before she was 1. I’ve tried sneaking foods into the foods she likes but she knows every time and spits it out. She uses to lick it, touch it, smell it, but won’t even do that anymore. I keep getting tol...

What are you giving your babies for breakfast? My son doesn't like porridge and is dairy, egg and gluten free 😵‍💫

My little girl is currently refusing to eat anything that isn't fruit or veg or yogurt. I'm worried about her not getting enough protein. I know veg have lots of protein in them and iron too (I'm a vegetarian but I'm raising my little girl on meat). I can't get her to eat beans or lentils either. Is this just a phas...

The past two weeks, my LO has significantly dropped the amount of food he eats. We have done BLW and he is still breastfeeding fine, however all the food he used to enjoy, he now refuses. His diet is now fruit pouches, some veggies, bread and yogurt. Can they become picky eaters as such a young age? Have you had a s...

I Feel like I only feed her veg, fruit and potato’s etc.

My son is almost 11 months old and struggling with quick ideas for lunches.. what do you give your babies?

This feels like a stupid question, but when people say they're just giving their baby a bit of whatever they're eating, what kind of foods are you giving them? We mostly eat like one-pot stews and things like veggie chilli or curries. How would you serve that to a baby for them to feed themselves? Give them a spoon...

What weaning bibs are every using? I use the coveralls, and the tray bibs too. My little one still seems to be covered in food after each meal. He needs a full clean and outfit change after every meal.

Hi, just wondering if anyone has advice or any tricks to help with a very sicky baby? Every feed he's being sick and then searching for food constantly. We've tried from boob, expressing and formula feeds to see if this makes a difference but it doesn't. Any hints/advice would be really appreciated 🙏

What dinner/snacks do you pack for your little ones when out and about during the day? Trying to stay off the pouches so much and start packing up a dinner now they are finger food eating more Thank you!

So I explained to the nursery where my little boy will be going in a week😫 that he isn’t fully BLW but he still has toast and sausage and mash and some fruit that is puréed. But he doesn’t have three set meals a day. It’s more breakfast and then yoghurts or melts sticks. And they just kept asking me if he’s had…

Ideas welcome For adults and the baby Small gathering at home Thank you

My 8mo refuses to eat any food. I’ve tried spoon feeding and finger food, nothing goes in. Sometimes he won’t even pick up the food. If he does get something in his mouth, he pulls the face like it tastes bad gags and spits it out. We know he has a dairy intolerance so we’re avoiding that, but it doesn’t seem to mat...

I have no idea if weaning is going “well” or not 🤷‍♀️😂 We’ve done 3 weeks but wow what a mess my lg makes 😳 she doesn’t really hold and eat anything herself, she holds it and waves it around and licks it but doesn’t actually really “eat” any. Except banana it always ends up on the floor so I don’t understand how to…

Best app to record feeding times

Is anyone else's toddler not eating. My daughter was going through this phase each time she was teething and then she started eating really well and now all of a sudden she's back to the same thing. I don't see signs of teething so idk if it's just a normal thing that happens with toddlers or if it's just her. She'l...
