Anyone else’s toddler go from a great eater, to not eating at all? My kid enjoys teasing the dog and feeding most of his food to the dog. I’m starting to worry now that hes not eating enough. I stopped making breakfast because I feel like 90% of his food goes on the floor and he’s just wasting so much. I have trie...

So my boy is really fussy and don’t eat Much and really running out of ideas Could any one help me with Breakfast lunch and dinner ideas please anything would be helpfull ❤️

We are going on holiday in April (UK to Turkey) with our LO who will be just under 9M. We’ve just started weaning, what should we do about food for her on holiday (I’ll also still BF her)? And any recommendations on items we should take that people found really good?

Hi! I will be travelling to the USA with my baby and wondered if anyone could advise on the best brand for healthy pouches and snacks for my baby? Will try and give fresh food as much as I can but more just for out and about. Thank you!

I need help with pasta sauces that don't contain tomatoes or pesto My daughter loves pasta Bolognese but we've just found out she's allergic to tomatoes. And I can't eat pesto All I can think of is a cheese sauce

What juice is good to start my son on and how do I offer it to him?

So my baby is just over 1 week off 7months.. sent partner to the shops to get some pouches as we have nothing in the house.. he come back with 7+ Ella’s pouches.. surely this will be fine to use? Only thing is we’ve been doing like single foods and these are chicken casserole and spag bowl food pouches 🤔 xx

Anyone else struggling with weaning? My LO is hardly eating anything whatsoever! She just about eats porridge, toast and finger puffs. I feel like she’s not getting any healthy food like fruit, veg or proper meals as she won’t eat them. Any tips or food ideas to help her eat? Thanks!

When you spent hours making rotisserie chicken and roast vegetables, only to be told later that they just want cereal for dinner instead 😂🤦‍♀️ my daughter is 3 and my son is 2, he’s likes to copy his sister, so whatever she eats he wants to eat too 😭 tell me I’m not the only one haha

My lg hasn’t eaten at dinner time for months now! She just will not eat, I offer several different meals when she doesn’t like the other one and she just will not eat anything! Why??

My baby is all over the place when we give her food. Arms and legs going wild, grabbing the plate, cup and just generally not very calm. Shes not upset or anything, just mental. She hates me cleaning her face and hands aswell. I’m not sure if its just her or if this is normal for 8 months?!

I know all babies are different but on average what are your 9 month olds eating in a day and how many bottles are they having? Do you still give them one in the night? Curious mostly and interested in the comparisons I’ve heard such different ends of the spectrum! 🤭

I’m making pasta and the recipe uses garlic she has had it before but I’m wondering if I should maybe use half as much as the recipe uses? It’s only 1 clove but idk 😅 I can’t cook but I’m tryna learn

My baby has just refused solids since a week. I've tried morning, noon, before bedtime nothing works. She shuts her mouth tight and I've to force 2 spoon max. Only wants breastfeed every 2 hour She is constantly active so I'm worried if she is eating enough

Hi! My little one is only 7 months but I can’t help but feel he’s already fussy. He will only eat very subtle flavours like avocado and sweet potato. I keep trying to mix up his diet up and try some BLW but he’s having none of it and only likes the baby puffs. Is this normal and do they eventually develop a matu...

If you're out for food and LO is due some too, do you take your own with you to feed them or order from the menu for them? I've been taking my own but today the restaurant made it very clear they wanted me to order off the kids menu, not be giving little one his pouch, so just curious what the norm is!

Anyone else going through this with their toddler?? Stuff he loved he’s just not eating. Not eating lunch or dinner properly. It stresses me out lol and then always begs for my food???? I’ve tried us sharing from one bowl too but he doesn’t. I feel I’m wasting so much food, I’m defrosting batch cooked stuff that he ...

My little one will not eat sandwiches for lunch so always has a hot lunch. Just looking for some more ideas from any one in the same boat

Does anyone else’s toddler eat like an absolute horse at nursery, and then barely anything at home? 🫠 I just don’t get it, my lo clears her plate every meal at nursery and I can barely get her to finish even half of her food at home. Mostly just ends up on the floor 🥲
