Have you started weaning your baby yet before 6 months? My baby is five months old and i want to start with some purees to help with his weight gain but don’t want to rush into it!

My little boy is 16 weeks now and I know you can sometimes start weaning from around 4 months - I’m not wanting to start weaning properly yet but I was thinking I could blend / mash up some strawberries or banana and let him feel the textures etc but he’s putting absolutely everything in his mouth at the moment, wou...

My son is 8 months old and idk how to keep up with feeding him 3 meals a day and giving him breast milk/ formula. I can barely feed myself more than twice a day. I feel so bad because we are also in a situation where we need to find a new place to live and I’m constantly stressed and I’m not sure what to do. ( Also ...

My baby is 3 months almost 4 and I’m think about adding rice cereal in his milk to make it thicker. Any. Suggestions

Anything easy? What do you take outside with you guys? I’m taking pouches outside but I really want her to have some finger food other than snacks? Also how many meals does your LO have and if they miss a meal does it affect them?

My 2 1/2 year old daughter won’t eat vegetables besides buttered sweet corn kernels. She’ll eat 1/4 cup of corn almost every day but I’m afraid she’ll get tired of them. If I cut up a potato into strips and fry them in avocado oil, she definitely loves homemade fries. She likes to identify carrots and play with them...

I have been trying to give my son 3 meals a day and have been doing well but sometimes I can barely bring myself to feed myself and some days he just has mostly milk or maybe 1 or 2 meals. Going through abit of a funk atm exhausted not feeling good physically and mentally then feel like not being consistent with at...

My baby (9months) seems to be funny with textures so his said no to porridge or weetabix so for breakfast he will accept greek yoghurt or a fruit pouch. Anything blended he doesnt seem keen at all he wants to chew so im a bit stumped what to give him.

I never met someone more fussy with food as my husband which makes cooking and eating stressful. Anytime we order anything it’s always never right and the fries always “taste old” “taste microwaved” “taste like they are from yesterday” ordered a budge meal today and they sent a note saying they couldn’t give fries d...

Please no judgment, but when’s the best time to start my son on baby food. He is four months old and he’s showing all the signs of baby food. He cries whenever he sees us eating food please no judgement I’m starting out and figuring all this out again my oldest is 11 years old, so I’m learning all this again

My son had his 18 month check up today. During the visit the pediatrician ask us (my husband and I) were asked if our son was talking. We mentioned he still babbles but he’s very alert, aware, curious, gives eye contact. They’re not too worried about that. The babbling is pretty much dadadada and gagagaga. He gave u...

My little one is exclusively breastfed, and has had the occasional pouch of food when my mum has had to watch him ( which was when he was about 9 months old ) However he is not at all interested in food, I try eating infront of him, then offering, also letting him play with the food. When I try to feed him or show h...

He was a week early so ended up a September bday and currently weighs 2st 3. I don’t know if I’m being dramatic but grandma who has him in the week gives so many snacks, we’ve been guilty as well to stop the tantrums which are always over food. I feel like I’ve created a bad situation for him with food

Anyone else's babes still not eating very much? My little boy is super enthusiastic about food, if you're eating he needs some but he will just bite it and spit it out 90% of the time He will eat purees and Weetabix and they say he eats at nursery but from what I've seen at home I don't believe it. I'm concerned ...
