How many oz is your (9mo old) taking daily now that they are eating solids?

My one year old is now suddenly throwing and spitting out food and I’m not sure what to do. She’s always been a great eater and never picky about anything. But now any food I give her she’s instantly throwing or taking bites but spitting them out right away. She’s starting occupational therapy soon for sensory proce...

Has anyone else's little one suddenly become picky with solids. At first with weaning he would pretty much eat anything I gave him but the last two weeks he has become really picky. He's good with breakfast but he's gone off so many foods he used to like. He's never been good with just boiled veges or meat but basic...

Need some advice! I’ve been giving my baby purée since he was 4 months and he’s obsessed and ended up wanting that so much more than milk, I ended up making my own purée because of how much of it he was going through. However he is now 6 months old so I have started blending the veggies less so there are more chunks...

My little boy is 6 months old now and I'm really struggling with weaning him. I've tried a variety of things like baby rice, baby porridge both made with his milk. Then purees like banana, mango, sweet potato, broccoli etc. And no matter what he has he has 2 spoonfuls and then closes his lips so I can't get the spoo...

Little one was really good 3 substantial meals a day with odd snack around these recently she’ll eat her breakfast then just refuse a ‘main dish’ for her lunch ie sandwich and just wants snacks then come dinner depending on what it is will refuse this too so will go whole day with 1 decent meal as such. Anyone else!...

Going to start weaning my boy next week, he is exclusively breast fed atm and will be 5.5 months. Do I start with purées till 6 months? He is really interested in food and reaching for things now so I think we are ready to start x

My son is about to turn 1 he has what I think is a cold, he’s got a runny nose and a dry cough. Today he’s decided he wants to eat less food but he still having his milk. If we try and show him food he throws a hissy fit screaming crying the works so we’re trying not to push the issue, Is this normal? He’s still p...

How many bottles and meals/snacks is your 10 month old having? I’m worried my lg isn’t eating enough or drinking enough. Also need some snack,dinner ideas

If my 15 month old is playing or chilling and I enter the room she will just feed. It's at the point that if we are in the same room she wants to feed, is this normal?

What are we making our TODDLERS (😩😔) for breakfast? 👀 need ideas.

If you give your kid cereal, which ones do you offer or they like to eat? My son absolutely hates weetabix and porridge and has eggs every morning without fail

My daughter is starting to dislike food she loved which is starting to make breakfast impossible. Weetabix, porridge, toast, scrambled eggs, avocado she just gags and spits it out. I try her again and she does the same thing. I’m unsure why as she could eat a whole avocado in one sitting not long ago and was obsesse...

Hi, I’m just wondering I’m giving my son bread for the first time today everyone says to toast it, my question is do I need to add butter to it

Hi everyone, my little girl is now 15 months and refuses to feed herself. She has been difficult with food ever since she was 9 months and became ill for a long period of time and was refusing anything that wasn't puree.

My nearly 13 month old daughter has started screaming the house down after every meal because she hates that her food is finished. Does anyone else's baby do this? I know that she's not still hungry but it's very annoying and I don't know how to make her stop it

My 3 year old little girl does not listen to me at all! Mornings are even worse especially her having breakfast. She will find anything else to do apart from eat her food and then my mam comes in and accuses me of not feeding her! My 3 year old loves strawberry jam on toast she asks for it every morning so I make it...

Pulling my hair out trying to think of ideas for what to give my baby lunch, that he can eat. I give him - cous cous, fritters (beans&cheese, vegetable) scrambled egg, toast (can’t really eat it though), pasta. Any ideas would be much appreciated 🤞🏼
