Hi guys, so we’ve been on a weaning journey for a couple of weeks now. Just purées atm as he’s 6 months on the 19th but he was giving all the signs (NO HATE PLEASE). Nothing major, just every now and again and he’d taste it but then spit it all back out which I expected but the last week (as we’ve had the thumps up ...
Anyone’s 13 month old just decided to eat absolutely zero food every day? 😅😅
What do you pack in your child’s lunch box for nursery for a fully day ?
Is anyone else’s little ones really bad when it comes to food? My son turned one last week. And he’s just terrible with eating! He’s such a fussy eater and whatever I give him he’ll just fling most of it on the floor. Or he’ll leave it in his mouth for a few minutes then spit it out. It’s driving me crazy!
My son is 2. Thursday he spent the day throwing up and only wanting half a banana and milk. Friday he ate half a banana for breakfast, nothing for lunch, and I had to basically bribe him to eat half a McDonald's small fries at dinner. We bought him a happy meal hoping that it would get him back to eating something a...
Hey! Wondered if anyone had started getting LO to help with making meals or food prep or baking. Looking for ideas for stuff to make with my son that is totally safe to eat raw in case he has a munch a long the way and also really simple and easy for an under 2 year old. He doesn't really have much understanding of ...
My boy has never really taken to food much even when weaning, he doesn’t have a massive appetite. We then went through some allergic reactions which involved projectile vomiting and I now wonder whether this has contributed to him absolutely refusing new foods. It took us so long to progress from purees to solids...
Hi!! Does anyone know if we’re allowed to give babies bone broth? I know it’s great health benefits for adults and looking for a stock to heat chicken and food previously frozen. My HV suggested using gravy but unsure of the salt content. My son is nearly 8 months old. Thanks in advance
My baby got approval from her ped to start solids and I’d like to start them too to reduce the likelihood of allergies. Solid starts though and BLW seems to be better started at 6 months so I’m curious for those who started solids before, did you stick to thin purées only? Or how did you do it?
When did you increase to 2 meals?
My LO is 9 months and has completely stopped eating her meals, which she usually had 3 times a day. I have to tiny bit force feed her throughout the day extremely patiently and then she would finish that one meal which she ate within 40 mins. Also, her milk intake has reduced significantly too, she use to do 3-4 bo...
Hey is anyone else baby not interested in using a spoon to feed themselves yet? My 14 month old can hold it but doesn’t seem to want to feed himself. When I’m feeding him things like yoghurts and porridge he sits with his mouth open waiting for me to feed him. Has anyone got any advice on how to get him to start usi...
My baby girl won't eat red meet I have no problem giving her fruit and vegetables but when it comes to red meat she won't eat it and I don't know what to do.
Can I introduce spicey food to my 7 month old? I am making chilli con carne for tea. Can she have some blended? Also can I give her rice?
So my little boy has just turned one!🥳 and we’re trying to transition him to cows milk from formula (a challenge!) but he’s so hungry in the morning I feel like he needs a little snack when he wakes. The last 2 mornings we’ve given him his cows milk and a banana but he’s still hungry! His nursery only gives…
LO is 24 weeks today and we’d like to introduce Kendamil porridge this weekend. Which cutlery and bowls did everyone buy for baby? Is there particular solids or purées that worked well for your baby? Do I try to give food once a day to start with? Any advice and guidance is appreciated!
Has anyone tried it? Any good reviews or cautions?
My 18mo old has always been a great eater and drinker. This last week he has started spitting his food out and letting his drink run out of his mouth. Not every meal or every time he drinks but it's enough to be annoying. It's at the point of I don't know what to set in front of him because 50% of the time he pic...
hello everyone! my 15 month old has been refusing to eat. he won’t eat off a spoon, he won’t eat anything but bananas, waffles (sometimes), french toast stick (no maple), breakfast sausage and his favorite snack cookie. how can i teach him to stop refusing other foods. clearly breakfast is his favorite but literally...
Does it contain cows milk and sugars ?
