Im slowly introducing solids to my baby. We’ve been doing purées. So far he does well with avocados. I tried sweet potato but he will gag it and throw up a lot… I’m the mom with the throwing up baby. Just curious what other foods to try?

Any lunch ideas for my 8 month old? She eats brekkie fine and tea but lunchtime shes so so fussy. Trying to do BLW during lunch as its much easier and practical for us shes fine in doing this but after one bite gives up. We tried sandwiches, crumpets, toast, scrambled egg.

I’m weaning my 8 month old and I’m looking for ideas to give him for lunch so far we’ve had jam and toast or cheese on toast. I need inspiration. We give him a hot meal at dinner usually what we’re having or some kind of puree.

My LO will be 5 month next week and all of a sudden become so interested in our food. He's trying to grab food off our plates and crying when we don't allow it. Has anyone else had this happen?

Hi, I’m about to start weaning my baby this weekend and I’m wondering which foods to start fast. I was initially thinking a vegetable? What did you all begin with?

As the title says. Do you do main meal for lunch, dinner or both? My little one usually has pinwheels, frittata, sandwiches, veggie tots for lunch and then main meal for dinner but not sure whether to change it now it's colder weather 🤔

My son has a horrible cold and is spitting out any food that isn’t yoghurt 🫥 has anyone been through this? Did you find another way to top up their food intake?

I am so ashamed to post this it’s why I have posted as incognito but I need all your advices because I feel guilty every morning doing this to my baby.

How do you get your kid to stop doing this? When she was younger it was fine bc she was exploring the food so I get it. But now it’s like she does it on purpose. She’ll throw it on ground then look at me and say more!

how do I feed my almost 2 yr old so that he’ll frickin eat and I don’t potentially traumatize him and alter his relationship w food🤦🏽‍♀️

When going to a restaurant do you give your baby restaurant food? For context, I’m going out for lunch with a friend this week and my baby isn’t really a massive fan of pouches. Where I’m going there is a kids menu but I’m assuming it’s aimed more at bigger kids so would contain some salt? There’s some things on t...
