My son just turned 2 at the beginning of the month and is going through this phase of only eating meals if I feed them to him.

My husband made a chilli from a weaning book tonight with the intention of giving a portion to baby tomorrow but he decided to add chilli powder which wasn’t in the recipe and just eyeball the spices. Should I still give her some?

Hi, can anyone share what their little one ate in a day and how it was served. I’m getting worried my little boy is falling behind a bit. I think he has quite a strong gag reflex still. Last night I gave him some flaky cod. Very small pieces. He just held it in his mouth and moved it around a bit but it just clum...

Anyone starting their children on regular food? I’m daughter will be 7 months on Sunday and I’m giving her purée but she’s just not interested in it.
