Anyone else’s little one suddenly obsessed with eating invisible food and acting out scenarios etc? 💭

My lo is nearly 16 months old and is super cute and squidgey however, she has a really big belly. Is this normal? She’s a big girl generally (tall and on 99th percentile) but I have noticed her belly protrudes. Can toddlers be overweight or is the potbelly a normal toddler thing?

Babies who are sleeping through the night. How much food is a little one eating through the day?

Weird one…. My LO has stopped eating veg when presented to him on a plate at the table. However I noticed he would pick bits up from the floor and eat them when I’ve got him down from the high chair and am cleaning up. So today after dinner I put a small plate on the floor with carrots and corn on… and he kept comin...

My son refuses to eat any meat or fish. Also he’ll eat is plain food for example when I make him pasta with salmon he wouldn’t eat the salmon. Also my son hates rice for some reason. When he refuses should I just not offer him other meals and just keep offering the same meal ???

Any suggestions for fussy eaters would be much appreciated! My daughter turns 1 on Wednesday and over the course of the last two weeks we have started to reduce her formula and introduce more cows milk. Whilst she seems to be hungrier for food rather than filling up on formula, she can be very fussy with what she e...

MY LO TURNS 6 MONTHS IN 3 WEEKS AND I HAVE NO IDEA ON WHAT TO FEED HIM TO START HIS WEANING JOURNEY. ANY IDEAS MAMAS ?

As in packs of ham for sandwiches. My LO doesn’t eat meat at all but today she seems to like ham but it only dawned on me after she ate some that it’s not cooked and solid starts suggests cooking deli meats

My LO is potentially allergic to eggs; I’m waiting a little before reintroducing them. I need breakfast ideas besides yogurt and fruit. Any suggestions?

My baby is 14 months old. She is throwing food and not eating. What to do??

My little one does not eat breakfast meat in the morning, but I would like for her to. What meat do you feed your little ones? She stopped eating the turkey sausages and we tried plant based (because she loves the plant based nuggets and meatballs) but she didn’t eat the breakfast meat. :/

So my son is 10 months old and I suspect he has some sort of sensory issue or is on the spectrum somehow. I have adhd/add, OCD and sensory issues. My partner doesn’t but he didn’t eat solid food until he was 4 which is insane to me. My son refuses everything but the bottle. Purees and solids he spits it at me, gags ...

My baby is 17 weeks. Goggle is very conflicting with advice or how much they should roughly be taking. I know all babies are different but just for a guideline.

Would anyone mind sharing their babies daily eating / milk schedule?

My baby isn’t overly interested in food, will maybe bring to her mouth once or twice if I’m lucky and may swallow a couple of mouthfuls of food per week? Offering 3 x meals a day. Not prepared to drop a bottle yet as she still feeds at night and milk is their main form of nutrition until 1. Only having 3-4 bottles i...

My baby is flat out refusing the food at nursery. I’ve seen the menu, it looks great and I don’t understand it. I bring him home and he eats fine. The staff say he just will not accept food from them or self feed. What is happening? I don’t know what to do.

My 2yr old doesn't eat! He'll maybe eat a few mouthfuls of a meal and leave the rest. He doesn't like fruit or veg, rarely eats even half of a meal... Asks for snacks all the time but even if I limit them, he doesn't eat! He is a very happy and energetic boy so I don't understand where the energy comes from! Anyone ...

If you have a fussy baby, what was one piece of food/meal they LOVED?

My boy is constantly throwing his food on the floor. No matter what I offer him or if it’s his most favourite food, every meal time 90% of his food goes on the floor. I’ve tried cutting it up smaller/offering it bigger/putting it on his tray one piece at a time/putting it all on his tray/telling him food stays up an...

Anyone else's kid try to eat books? Or just mine 📚🙄😂
