My baby boy seems to be hungry CONSTANTLY! Thoughts on starting baby rice at 4 months ????

My baby is teething now and I will starting to feed her food soon. She has a cow milk allergy and I would really benefit from some non-dairy meal prep ideas 🙏 I am already thinking puréed veggies but are there any other suggestions x

Hi my 10 month old has jsut started refusing to eat anything throwing it on floor having meltdowns when i try to feed him he's always been a good eater too is this normal ? x

Hey! How did everyone start baby led weaning? We did pureed food which we started at 4 months due to reflux and CMPA we were advised to start then (fully aware it's a bit controversial!!) I'm now sort of stuck after doing purees I don't know how best to transition to baby led! Any good recipes or suggestions a...

My husband and I always have this “fight”. If I see any mold, I throw them all away. Even the ones not touching or far away. They all gotta go. My husband says you just throw away the moldy ones and the ones close to it and clean the others well. And then you can keep them and eat them.

Hey ladiesss! Those who have started weaning - what are you using to blend up food for the baby? Xx

My baby will not eat solids. Doesn’t open her mouth for purées and when tried 2-3x solids, and a small tiny piece goes into her mouth (a piece she can just swallow bc it’s so tiny) she freaks and gags and then won’t want to try it again 🫣 Even with Tylenol she gags and hates it.

Random one but I’ve got chicken Kievs for dinner tonight and would like to give baby the same dinner for ease. How would you serve them a chicken Kiev? Sliced into strips or in quarters? TIA

When giving baby finger food meals, do you offer one thing at a time or put it on one of those plates with the different compartments so it's offered all at once? When I tried offering it all at the same time, my baby ate the thing he liked the most and then just left everything else.

Does anyone have a snack drawer or cupboard that your little one has access to throughout the day to help themselves? What do you put in it? I’m thinking of starting this with bits as my little girl is always “starving” 🙄🤣

Hi moms! ✨️ What type of snack do you give to your little one? I give mine fruits but looking for something different 🤷🏼‍♀️ Home made only.

My daughter (2 years old)doesn’t eat much. She eats few things. Idli, roti without curry/sabzi just roti. I have to literally distract her to eat one egg. She wants other things like Maggie or biscuits. I don’t distract her with phone but obviously people insist that oh it’s okay if she is distracted. It has reached...

I know cereal in baby bottle is a no no my son is 14 months and I’ve recently now have my mother watching him since I’ve returned to work. She will have him down for bed by 8 and he sleeps through the night when she puts him to bed. He NEVER sleeps through the night with me! I finally asked her what her secret is an...

How old are your little ones and do they eat baby food yet?! Im dying for my 4 month old (18 weeks) to eat fruits but her dr has only approved rice cereal with a bit of apple sauce.

My son has dropped down to just the one nap and I'm finding it hard to get dinner etc cooked. What're you doing / how're you entertaining your little ones? Sorry to sound unimaginative

Hi everyone, I know it's a bit early for me to be worrying about my baby but my MIL pointed out to me that she thinks my LO (6months) is on the spectrum. This led me down a Google rabbit-hole and now I feel concerned and was looking for other mums advice. Main concerning habits are: - Fussiness all the time, alway...

Hi mums, my baby will be 6 months next week and I’m just thinking about weaning and how to start.. how many meals do you start with per day? Is it just one meal a day of puréed veggies/ fruit and try a few spoons of it? How many bottles of milk should I be giving then.. she usually takes ~5 x 240ml bottles. is it th...

My daughter does two days at nursery 8am-1pm. They have a packed lunch at nursery at 12pm but I just want some ideas of what you are putting in your little ones packed lunches?! 🙏 I do almost the same thing every time! A cream cheese or ham sandwich, x2 pieces of fruit, a squeezy yogurt and some sort of bar…

Does anyone have ones they like they could link? Just as I started giving them glass my infant learned she can throw plates 🤦‍♀️

Anyone else experiencing a huge change in their little one’s eating habits? My son used to eat everything and lot! Up until December he was eating so good, then all of a sudden in January he’s become so picky and barely tries new foods. Even some of his old favorites he won’t even try now- straight to the floor! I k...
