my baby turned six months old on Sunday.. I wanted to give her some couscous.. recipes??TIA

Please help me. My boy has been sick and is not able to take anything. I’ve fed him lemon and ginger tea with a syringe and he takes his warm milk with some chocolate mixed in. He woke up today very weak and barely able to walk. What food/feeding alternatives can I try to help him gain strength and boost his appetite?

My toddler has always been happy with fruit pouches, yogurts, smoothie melts, but is suddenly refusing them and I’ve realised I need to step away from the baby snacks! What do you all offer as snacks? My LG is very fussy with fruit and veg, crisps, sandwiches. She’s having fruit smoothies instead but I’m stumped abo...

What is everyone feeling their toddlers? She’s allergic to eggs and does not like pancakes so I’m always at a loss!

Some days my little girl eats really well and we can be finished a meal in 15 mins or so but other times she seems completely disinterested in eating and just wants to play with her food and make a mess. I feel like my partner gets very impatient/frustrated and wants to end her meal time within a few minutes of her ...

I can’t get my baby to eat any fruit or veggies. He will be one. He will stare at it not touch it. If he touches it it’s to fling it on the floor. He won’t even attempt to try it. He will pick up any protein or carb but not touch a fruit or veggies to even kno if they are gross. I started giving him those fruit an...

My baby is 8 months old , started weaning her at beginning of November when she was 6 months she loves the fruit pouches , loves porridge for breakfast, comes to dinner time she doesn’t like the (7months+) jars or pouches I give her nor the stuff I make her and chunky blend either. What do I do ? I didn’t have this ...

I’m weaning my baby boy at the moment. He’s seven months old. I’m doing pure raises because I’m basically too scared for baby lead weaning 🤣 any ideas for meals? I literally feel like I’m doing potato carrots sweet potato all blended at the moment and we just done a strawberry. I really need some ideas

I apologise if my questions are stupid but I haven’t done much research as I’m sleep deprived and have a very high needs baby so any help is very appreciated. Water: do you give baby boiled tap water or can they have water from a filter? Food: it would be helpful if you share what was your baby’s first food Juice:...

I don’t know at what point I should start panicking (to be honest I already am) My LO barely eats. Breakfast is our most successful meal by far and I’m probably getting half of one Weetabix and half a mashed banana into her there. She picks at her lunch and picks at her dinner so it’s MINIMAL intake. She will eat ...

He absolutely loved this one! One piece for him and one piece for me! Anyone got any other breakfast ideas that both me and my son can have together really enjoy having meal time together!💙xxx
