Feel like my little girl is so behind with her eating. She’ll happily eat fruit and porridge etc but if it’s a meal she just refuses it or throws it off her high chair. She won’t have scrambled eggs, omelette, toast, sandwiches, snacky bits like cheese/ham/cucumber or anything like that 🥲 I keep offering it but…

Oh ladies, I need some advice. My little one started nursery a few weeks ago. He is really struggling when it comes to eating. At home, he's a massive foodie, but at nursery, he isn't touching his food at all. Has this happened with your little ones? What do i do?

Does anyone have any good advice or resources for weaning?? I’m so confused by it all! If anyone has any answers to the below that would be great: Does it matter which meal time i start with? Do i build up one meal to multiple ingredients before going onto the next? So wait until breakfast is a bigger meal with ...

Hey! My little one is nearly 9 months and not enjoying weaning at all. He doesn’t take the spoon, pouches, BLW and ends up crying. He currently has 5 bottles per day (4 x 90ml - 150ml) and 1 8 x oz before bed (combi fed). We also eat at the table for dinner with him so he watches us eat. I’ve tried giving him soli...

I'm having problems with my 16 month old, since he started solids I've been trying to give him different meats different textures but he just won't eat it. Anyone else had this problem or any advice

Lemon & blueberry donuts, apple and pear sausage tots and sausage rolls, donuts with sprinkles & homemade trail mix for toddler. Plus tuna mayo and boiled eggs.

My toddler has hit the stage where all she wants to do is eat yogurt, cheese string, ice lollies and sometimes strawberries. Meal times are getting difficult She’ll eat occasionally toast, noodles and chicken but where’s the nutrition. It’s not filling her up as she’s demanding yogurt after yogurt. Come bedtime I ...

Heya ladies so I have a 1 year old and he only has 2 teeth , it's hard to give him some foods because he can't chew them .... any advice what I could give him

Now our babies are 9 months old how is everyone preparing the food now? Am I right in thinking it's bite size pieces now? I'm curious how everyone is serving toast and sandwiches?

Anyone's babies still hating it? My little boy will literally have tiny mouthfuls of puree, anything slightly lumpy he gets so upset and BLW he just throws on the floor will not entertain putting anything to his mouth 😅 I know its a process and they learn as you continue trying but we don't seem to be getting…

My lb only recently started liking food and I’m not sure if he’s eating enough. For breakfast today, he had 1 weetabix mixed with 3oz milk and half a banana and blueberries chopped up in it. Is that enough?

Does anyone here give their toddler protein shakes? My boys diet is terrible, he's horrendously picky and barely eats anything. He won't touch meat at all, the only dairy I can get in him is greek yogurt. Fruit is now becoming a task and he'll only have it in puree form 😩 and obviously veggies are a big no no. He…

My boy has been refusing his meals I’m thinking I’m giving too many snacks.. as I’m thinking he’s hungry so food isn’t ready but then giving him something small but it’s not working out recently.. kinda stuck..

our peds gave us the heads up we can and we already did banana before the appointment. but tonight we did apple sauce / cooked mushed apples! It went really well! He even grabbed the spoon and put it into his mouth himself!

My son is 11 months old and loves to eat my food I gave him a bite and he bit and swallowed the tip of a plastic fork

I need advice with how to deal with this particular situation. Ever since I found out I was pregnant these family members on my sons dads side ALWAYS have an opinion on how I should do thing and what I should do or I’m not doing something right…I have ignore it and not let it bother me till recently, my baby is now ...

My son is 12 months old. We’re a bit late to start with BLW (my own worrisome wasn’t helping) He gags a lot but I think it’s because he shoves a lot into his mouth at once. I demonstrate to spit it out and he sometimes does. Is the meat a good size here? It was his first time eating meat alone and I’m wondering ...

He tries so hard to use the spoon and fork, but just can't grasp how to load the food on himself 😩 is it just practice makes perfect?

Anyone else dealing with their Lo refusing to eat almost all of their meals and just wanting to snack all day.. he eats a large variety of food and nothing is ever the same as the day before, but recently he’s only been wanting to snack or eat certain meals.

If someone gets offended if you don't eat their food wtf is that?
