Hello - other than baby packaged snacks what else do you give your baby for a snack? My little needs two snacks a day but has suddenly gone off the vast majority of his usual foods but is definitely still hungry. He hates egg and I’ve tried lots of different ways of serving it. He does like pancakes so I’m going to ...

Hey, started baby led weaning today and we started with broccoli, she held the broccoli but wouldn’t put it in her mouth at all. Is this normal?

Little girl has always enjoyed food and enjoyed trying new foods but recently she is just refusing new foods and not eating much of the things she usually likes.

How’s weaning been for everyone that has just started? We’ve started three days ago with my six month year old, and she’s not interested in the puree food we’ve given her. So far I’ve given her Ella kitchen pouches. We started with sweet potato then apple, and she hardly had any of them. I’ve also tried to give he...

I serve my toddler breakfast, lunch, and dinner and she will only eat one of those really good and then the next meal she won’t eat at all.

My twins just turn 8 months and I’m thinking about having them try finger foods. Not sure what kind or if I should stick to purées… Is it too early for pasta? Im excited but scared since there’s a lot of information online.

My LO will now only eat plain yogurt 🤦‍♀️ refused to have his salmon & sweet potatoes puree this evening so thought let me try mix it with some yogurt 😆🤣 voila he had a few spoons.

My 5 month old baby is reaching for food. Is he ready?

Has anyone given their babies the store bought baby food with cinnamon in it, I believe its cinnamon and apple, my mom said it’d be good for breakfast for him and I got it for him without thinking and then remembered that I heard that baby’s aren’t allowed to have cinnamon and my mom argues that since it was made wi...

My 8 month old loves food. Especially anything that he can hold in his hands but we also do a bit of spoon feeding depending on the food. He loves bean, Scrambled egg, toast, banana, raspberries, blackberries, pasta and wheatabix but that's about all he's tried so far. Long story short, his brother has loads of oral...

Sorry, this is a bit of a vent. I feel really guilty about weaning my 5.5 month old. He’ll be 6 months on the 17th of December and is showing all the signs of readiness. I thought I’d try giving him little bits of what we’re having just to see how he gets on with it. He’s had a little bit of mash, a biscuit and a ch...

Interested to hear any rules you have with your little ones around food? A rule for us is that our 2 year old only ever drinks water or milk, I don’t allow any juice or fizzy pop. I also don’t allow sauces like ketchup due to the sugar. I also wouldn’t offer our little one a pudding or desert of her own. If we we...
