This may be so weird but what is a mac and cheese recipe that you follow? I've never made it before since I mainly make Cambodian food and that's what my family prefers. But I'm 30 weeks pregnant and this child is craving it 😆

My son doesn't eat much dairy stuff. He'll have philadelphia on toast, pizza toast (tomato puree and grilled cheese) and cheesy veggie bites, but doesn't like cheese on its own. He used to eat plain full fat yoghurt/mixed with a fruit pouch but he's now gone off them, and I've tried him with little yeo fruit yoghurt...

Just looking for a bit of advice. My baby is 9 months and loves his food but I am really struggling to get his milk in him he's just not interested. Because he's barely drinking he's not weeing much.

Can anyone suggest any quick and easy lunch ideas for my 11 month old, soon to be 1 in 3 weeks! Running out of ideas now I’m back to work! Thank you 🤩

My 8 month old is now refusing to be spoon fed anything and just wants to feed himself. We have been doing a mixture of BLW and spoon feeding. I’m a little confused how to give him anything like a curry, soup or pasta since he won’t let me feed him. Any tips?

Ladies, I'm back at work and pick my little one up at half 4ish from my mums. Any ideas/tips what to give him for tea, I find myself doing same things or just giving him a child meal (in the pots) which i want to try and stop doing but as these are quick, it makes it easier. Any ideas/tips would be appreciated. Than...

Hello mama’s do you still give your babies cereals?? I feel my LO has outgrown Aptamil cereals but I would love to still give him some cereals in the morning. I tried oats, he is not a fan. Any other ideas??

My baby will be 7 months next Sunday. I’ve been giving her purées for 1 month straight. When should I be changing it to thicker foods with more clumps? I just never know when to change the textures up.. etc. I’m scared she’ll choke but I’m sure by now she should be fine!! She also has two bottom teeth now. Any help ...

I am 6 weeks postpartum, and I am dreading when I will have to make dinners, except for the fact that I want to meal plan each week and such the way I did prior to giving birth. Thus, I need like 15 minute or less meal ideas I can put together for when my baby naps in the afternoon. Anyone have any favorites/go-to m...

My LG is 8 months and I've not given her grapes at all yet, as I'm so scared of her choking. Ive worked in nurseries for a long time and have heard so many horror stories 😭 I saw on the solid starts app that they can be served quartered from around 9 month but I'm still scared! I want her to try them because we…

I’ve been trying my best to cut down on animal products. I very rarely have meat and I would love to be fully vegan but I do struggle with meals and snacks as we do eat a lot of eggs and cheese atm. What are you favourite (easy) vegan meals and snacks? X
