My LO has always had either rice crispies or toast but he’s starting not to be keen on either.. don’t mind other cereal suggestions or what everyone else gives their LO’s please? xx

Anyone else still scared to do this? My 7m has textured purees and has had about 2 veg for BLW but it's sooo scary! I know LO is def ready for it now, but I'm not 😅 they just try and shove the entire thing in their mouth all the time! Even when I gave her toast, she made a massive bit wet then ripped off half of…

My daughter is 18 months, and whenever I put her in her highchair, she just throws her food on the ground. Then she wants out of it and will perform drive-by bites... any advice on how to correct this behavior, or is this a stage that will pass at some point?

Can babies over 6 months have kefir? It says that they can on the solid starts app but as it’s American I just wanted to check… We have kefir in our smoothies everyday and was thinking I could give my little one some smoothie with his breakfast as we put lots of nuts, seeds and fruit in it so thought it might be goo...

I usually like it. It’s educational and doesn’t seem to be too overstimulating? But today an episode about mixing different foods came on, and they kept saying EWWWW & YUCK! To different combinations. They were gross combos like sushi and ice cream but I turned it off quickly. I feel like with toddlers you already h...

He’s just like me and loves them withsautéed onions, seasoned and drenched in fresh lemon. I always went light thinking it’d be too much for him, but quite the opposite!

My 16 day old is always seeming hungry.

My LO is 3 months and my mother in law has already put cream in their mouth as well as custard etc. I keep telling her to stop but she says not to listen to midwifes saying to wait until 6months. Not that that's the only issue, it's also the fact I want his first foods to be nutritionally beneficial. Doesn't hel...

Any ideas for lunches that I can take out with me for my 6mo? We are out almost every day at the moment, I hate being indoors and take my little girl out and about a lot. Now that shes eating food, I’m trying to think of lunch ideas that I can take with me for on the go for her? Ideally that don’t require warming up.

Please don’t judge me! I’ve been giving my baby jars/pouches. She has toast for lunch but i really want to start cooking and freezing stuff for her and giving her healthier options. I’ve been struggling with PPD and am starting to feel more myself and feel like i could manage this now. I’m just not sure what I can m...

I am struggling for meal ideas for lunch and dinner. It’s hard to think of ideas of new meals any ideas welcome. Feel like I am giving baby same food all the time I like giving a main meal and 2/3 other things on a plate with sections but open to ideas Pictures welcome

On an example day, what weaning foods are you giving your LO for brek, lunch and dinner? Are you still feeding them, or are they all self feeding with baby cutlery? We haven't really started in terms of baby feeding himself as I actually want to get food down him without wastage. Unsure if we're way behind on this.

We had an appointment with our pediatrician yesterday and she basically said he’s underweight. He’s in the 23% for weight I was just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to get him to gain? He eats constantly here’s a rundown of foods he’s clearing off his plate this week Eggs and toast Cheese Ham and sausage ...

Need to pop to the local shopping centre, what kind of food would you order for them whilst out and about? I’m really conscious about the salt and sugar so it’s giving me a mind blank and I’m overthinking 😂
