Does anyone elses LO seem to be hungry all the time! My little boy had cereal and a hot cross bun for breakfast, a banana, an apple, a biscuit, a yoghurt and a bottle of milk all before 10.30. I don't want to restrict his snacks if he's hungry but equally I don't know that I should be getting him something every tim...
My girly loves helping with baking and preparing food… any recommendations on knife/ cooking sets that you guys let your little ones use to help chop up food etc
Hey does anyones little ones eat with a spoon/ fork? My little one always uses his hands and I don’t know what to do to get him to use the spoon/ fork instead. I give him a spoon/ fork with his meals but he isn’t interested at all… Also can anyone recommend the best ones to buy?
Hey ladies, I have a 7 month old who just hates weaning. I’m not really sure what to do or what I’m doing wrong. I’m struggling with what to give her and to get her to actually eat. The only thing she’s actually put in her mouth of one of those dummies with puree in but she just spits the puree out and then banan...
Has anyone struggled with anxiety to start BLW? I have been giving purées for 4 weeks now and she is showing all the signs of being ready for solids but I am just so anxious she is going to choke and I won’t be able to help her. I’ve watched so many videos online and researched everything I need to but the panic of ...
How do you eat with your two year old? We have ours currently eating in the living room at his little kid table while he watches a movie. But it seems lately he's getting distracted. Before we used to have him Sit at the table but he would get done before I and my husband would eat. I just want to see what option...
My 3 year old eats so slowly! And I know that's how toddlers go.. they take a bite and run around the table and then take another bite, but this is different.. my son will just go about his business with a bite of food in his cheek like a chipmunk for 15 minutes! I literally ate my entire meal and he had the same pi...
Ladies, I have started giving 1 teaspoon of chia seeds to my little one in her overnight oats once a week. Do you, give chia seeds to your babies? If yes, how much and how often? And please share other ways to give chia seeds to her?
My daughter is almost 7 months and has been eating purées as well as BLW for the last 2 months. She knows how to sign “all done” and in the last week she’s eaten a couple bites each meal time (3 times a day) and has been done eating. Just want to know if this is normal?
Just a bit of a vent post and looking for other mums in a similar position. My LO took a while to take to food, refused purees and didn't want to be fed and then eventually around 9 months starting liking food! But since Dec she's been ill x2 so we're back on food strike 😩 and it's really stressing me out. She…
My 9 month old suddenly is not interested in any food. She used to love Ella’s Kitchen food pouches and was trying loads. Suddenly she doesn’t seem interested in food anymore. It’s been about 3 days she is refusing to eat or only tries a few spoonfuls. Has anyone experienced this before? And if so, do you have any a...
Jam sandwich, peach, gherkins, biscuits … not pictured seaweed, yogurt & peperami.
How the hell do you do baby lead weaning with twins? How do you start? I’m here spoon feeding them and love that they are enjoying it but feel that they’re only interested if I show them the food. They do eat their fingers but they won’t touch the food and eat it, so see no point in it. Any tips are welcome ☺️
So my little one is 19 months old and has always been an amazing eater. Eats whatever you give her. The past few weeks we’ve delt with: utine infection, viral infection, ear infection, rashes, teething, constipation you name it she’s basically had it the last week. Over the past few days she’s been refusing all foo...
How does your daycare do mealtime? It was brought to my attention that my sons daycare provides breakfast at 8am lunchtime at 11am and then a small snack at 3pm. I was under the impression they would give another snack sometime in the AM. When he is home he gets breakfast at 8am a snack at 10am lunch at 11:30-12 a s...
How much milk are you giving your baby on average and when? Im so confused on whether my little should be recieving milk during breakfast, lunch and dinner or if it should be given in-between with snack? Do you give your littles 1 snack a day or 2.
My baby will be 11 months in a few weeks. He’s generally a good eater and will try different things. He’s eating more textured things but he never has any interest in feeding himself. I’ve tried leaving food in front of him but he’ll just play with it and not even bring it near his mouth. I let him explore and play ...
My baby is almost 12 weeks old. She is putting on weight and has just been weighed today, however, I've noticed over the past few days she just isn't into her food. Today is the least amount of food she has ever eaten. I try and feed her either bootle of breast, but after a few minutes she gets fussy. Our Health vis...
How much as in quantity should a 9 month old eat o see all these videos on tick tok of babies finishing there plate my little one dosent even come close to that were on 3 meals a day 2 top teeth teething but it’s so discouraging that she dosent finish a plate of food 🙃
After she’s done eating or if it’s stiff she doesn’t like. Doesn’t matter if I say no, ignore it, remove the plate, explain it etc. any tips? It’s becoming really annoying. Been doing it for a few months, I thought it was just a new phase but it’s getting to me now. It’s not just the food, it’s also her water bottle...
