Food help??

Doesnā€™t matter if itā€™s something I know he likes or something new LO is refusing all types of food!! What am I suppose to do. All I keep hearing is he will eat when heā€™s hungry.. well he must never be hungry because he eats nothing and when he does itā€™s 2-3 spoonfuls šŸ˜©

Hungry baby

My first born was a complete boob monster & wasnā€™t really interested in food when we started weaning. But my almost 7 month old is absolutely loving eating. I didnā€™t want to rush it, but whenever Iā€™m eating he cries because he wants it. So I have started giving him a small amount of food every time I eat. He is defi...

Am I wrong for feeling this way? Long story/rant

Okay so my BD and I are trying to figure out life together. Itā€™s a been long rocky road for us. I thought when we found out we were pregnant heā€™d grow up and stop being selfish. Iā€™ve had an eating disorder for the past 4 years (itā€™s still off and on) so itā€™s very DIFFICULT for me to have a comfort food/snack. Part o...

I feel like Iā€™m failing and I donā€™t know what to do about it šŸ˜”

My little boy is 18 months in a couple of weeks. When we did weaning we did the whole vegā€™s first and all that jazz but it got difficult and we found he had a milk, egg and wheat allergy. Now he can tolerate wheat and some dairy variations but he just barely eats anything new. He will eat beans, pasta, and toast a...

What to do

What do you do if your child is just refusing food? Wonā€™t eat meals unless itā€™s nuggets, sausage, hotdog etc. even refusing past that he normally eats. Itā€™s really getting to me and I know that if he doesnā€™t eat he wonā€™t sleep at night. He just point blank refuses. Heā€™ll eat snacks fine and eats fruit, has gone off ...

Purees

I have a fair few veggie purĆ©es in my cupboard but baby wonā€™t really eat purĆ©es anymore is there anything I can put them in instead of wasting them? Sheā€™ll eat the purĆ©e fruits but not the veggie ones sheā€™d rather just nom on a carrot stick or a broccoli florets.

Is it concerning that my child isnā€™t interested in solids?

my fresh 7 month old still only takes formula. Iā€™ve tried introducing solids many different times, from puree to blw (giving her bits of food for sensory play) but she just has this look of disgust on her face every time. is that normal? at what time should I call for early intervention with the pediatrician if sheā€™...

What is going on? šŸ˜©

My son will be 2 in two weeks, and for the last couple of weeks he has been quite tough to deal with. He has suddenly refused to eat at dinner times, no matter what it is and he may only eat a couple of mouthfuls and thatā€™s it; or he just wants to be sat on someoneā€™s lap and be fed, same with breakfast. I also have...
