Me and my husband have quite a different taste in foods. I'm more into veggies, curries, soups etc whereas he prefers chicken, meat, rice. We both like salads, pasta, fish and all the usual junk food 😅 It makes it quite hard to eat the same meals and we usually end up just making our own dinners. Anyone else in a…
I have a 10 month old and I’m just struggling with her lunch and dinner meals, I have a 2.5 year old so I’ve done it before but I just don’t have as much time now as I’m back working too, she’s a little fussy but always tries new things, I try give her what I eat when I can but a lot is spicy food or just things she...
How much food are you all giving your little ones now? We're having some food at lunch time and dinner time (am making sure I give him the boob first so he's still getting that). Just wondered how much you are giving them to eat?
My baby does so well with his food but he has been having mainly purees (which have gotten chunkier each month) alongside finger foods. But what are the best things to start baby led weaning with for a mom who is scared of choking?
At what month do you start your baby on baby food my little boy will be 3 months on the 20th April
Do I let him go hungry or become a chicken nugget mum? He prefers things like fish fingers, turkey dinosaurs, pizza. I try to pick the better options but it’s still full of rubbish!
Is anyone else struggling to read cues with their newborn when feeding? She’s 12 days old. I feel like I don’t know how to differentiate between actual hunger cues or fussiness and I worry I am going to end up over feeding her (formula fed) She’s also really grunty after (and sometimes during) most feeds, pulling he...
Anyone else’s toddlers going through a really fussy eating stage? My lb is 18 months old and he has become so fussy with his food. He pretty much refuses all dinners offered to him, i always try to incorporate something he’ll typically eat onto his plate & he always has what we have. We eat with him at the table and...
Anyone else's toddler surviving on air?my little boy is 14 months old and I'm finding it so hard atm to get him to eat anything apart from potatoes, weetabix, yoguht, the occasional fruit item and snacks. Breakfast usually goes ok and then it's just downhill from there. Some days he eats better than others but most ...
What do you do when baby throws all their food on the floor? Keep offering things until they eat something or let them go without? I'm finding it so frustrating, when do they grow out of it?!
I’m struggling for lunch ideas for my 9month old. Any suggestions would be great! ☺️
How is everyone doing with introducing fruits? My LO hates anything puréed but he also just hates basically every fruit ive tried. He does okay with the once upon a time cold pressed pouches but they are expensive. 🤷🏻♀️ Tried mixing berries with yogurt hated it. Idk just trying to give him a balanced variety of…
How good are they supposed to be at this age? My LB still enjoys using hands over spoons etc. He is good with the spoon, scooping things by himself and then bring to his mouth. But he then somehow turns the spoon as it enters his mouth and most of the contents falls off 🙃 I show him every mealtime. I guide his…
So, when the baby is done throwing all the food on the floor and it’s all over his hands and legs, what do you guys do? End up actually feeding the baby? Clean up and call it a day? In all seriousness, he’s 10 months and doesn’t put a single thing in his mouth. I’ve been feeding him so far so I get it that it’ll t...
Looking for advice on how much food to give vs milk! What are you all doing? Baby is ebf and has taken to solids really well but obviously the more food he has, the less milk he drinks. I know milk is the main form of nutrition until 12 months but the advice from NHS is to be on 3 meals a day by 10 months and other...
My 6 month baby is refusing any foods, goes tight lipped and turns their head away. This includes if I try to show them how to use a straw cup/open cup for water. I’m really worried as they’ve not had water at all due to refusing and I’ve kept trying for nearly 2 weeks and still no luck so starting to panic! We’re...
My baby will be 6 months on the 25th and will be starting solids soon. For any October mums who have already started your journey do you have any recommendations on utensils such as spoons, water cups etc that you would recommend. Thank you! ❤️
Anyone intruding solids at 4 months? If so why and did you ask doc first?
He had a vomiting bug last Monday/tuesday and then went straight into teething the rest of the week & has had 3 teeth break through the gum in the past few days so has been completely off food and drink. I’m not too worried about food cause he is quite chunky and taking snacks rather than dinners but enough to keep ...
I don’t know if this is a rant or a plea for help at this point 😂 First issue we have is my MIL plays favourites massively with my 2. It’s not even a discreet amount. She only wants my girl to stay round hers, only wants to take her out, buys her gifts every time she sees her and my little boy doesn’t get the…
