My baby is 11 months old and iv accidentally been giving her honey roasted turkey the past week. I didn’t even think to look at the specific name and just grabbed turkey for us to eat. She’s ate it multiple times this past week and I’m worried because I know doctors stress not to give honey before age 1. Has anyone...
Anyone else’s baby just suddenly wanting to be more independent?? My child wants to drink from glass cups, strongly requests certain parts of her food per bite, wants to feed herself (I usually feed her), tries to put on her own shoes, and tries to imitate whatever her dad and I do (chores, talking, games, etc). I...
I started weaning my little boy 3 weeks ago when he turned 6 months, and he took to it very well. But the last week when he eats he eats loads, and he’s still so hungry and wants more. He has boob every 3 hours and he drinks for about 10 minutes. So is it possible he’s having too much food? Example, for dinner to...
So everyone tells you to read to your kids. My baby is 10 months old and I have started to sit him down after his evening nap and read to him. Simple colours and numbers and finding animals. It has been 2 weeks. The problem is-he only wants to eat the books! It is impossible to get through a 5-7 page book without ...
What’s everyone giving for snacks other than fruit and yogurt? Mine already eats fruit with every meal and yogurt as part of lunch.
So my 7 month old has been in solids for a while spoon fed by myself and partner introduced small finger foods like the puffs and wafers but now doesn't want purees given by us what foods can I give him as I'm really anxious about him chocking
When is everyone starting to give food/water to their little ones? I don’t want to start until 6 months but when i tell someone that they look at Me like I’m crazyyy. Should i be starting earlier?
Having a bit of a tough time with solids generally but we were making some progress... but now my daughter is teething badly and has some sort of virus and she is right off food (except milk). She used to be able to handle big chunks of banana, but today she had a piece smaller than a pea in her mouth and she worked...
I keep seeing comments with the phrase “food before 1 is just for fun” and I want to point out that this is a myth. A baby would be way worse off if they didn’t have solids before they turn 1. If you refer to paediatricians and nutritionists they will not say that solids are just a bonus. Exposure to solids is so im...
I’m at my wits end. All my toddler wants to eat is cheese sandwich’s and quavers. I give her choices for dinner and she chooses one… then cries when it’s put infront of her. She’s also saying she’s not hungry at dinner time and point blank refusing to eat. I’ve just her dinner infront of her and she’s crying saying ...
My 7 week old seems to be very uninterested in feeding and in the evenings is very fussy on the boob. How often should a 7 week old be eating, she is EBF and not looking for food.
Anyone else 19 month living of air? Literally will not eat anything!!!
They have got avocado, spinach, carrot and banana in them! Little one had no idea.
My 3 year old absolutely demolished this 🤣
Is this weird? My LO is going to his grandads tonight and we have to provide his food while he stays overnight. His dinner tonight and his breakfast and lunch for tomorrow. I’m sorry but he’s going to his grandads surely they can make something quick!! The lack of effort is just pissing me off and this is the last s...
Anyone elses toddlerr still crap at eating and have few things they actually will eat? My little girl will only eat certain things, if i hide things like fish in mash she will eat it but on its own she will say she doesnt like it. I dont know what to do! She will lick a few new things others point blank refuse
Does anyone use these a lot? I feel bad for using them but I’m so fed up of cooking meals for them to wasted yet she never wastes these! I don’t just buy any old jar/pouch/ ready meal I make sure they are rated excellent on the yukka app but I still feel bad. - my baby also won’t eat finger foods so I’m having to c...
Other than doing the obvious let her play with the food I don’t know what else I can do. Nearly 11 months now and still won’t do it. She just cries if I try and get her to put anything in her mouth. Literally offered her chocolate to see if she’d do it for that but still no. Will only let me feed her.
My baby is 16 weeks tomorrow and some feeds in this last week have gone down in time quite a lot - round 8-12 minutes total time when usually it’s 20 minutes
How are you guys serving fruit like apples and oranges? The solid foods app says apples are a big choking hazard and oranges have to be cut out of each membrane but I wanted to see if this is what others are doing? Also what about grapes? I’d like to give LO more fruit but worried of the choking risks
