LB turned 1 on Sunday, I'm worried about the cows milk transition as he's really not a great eater. He's currently not been well and not really having much milk never mind food but before he was poorly he was a rubbish eater as well. Everything I've read talks about switching when they are getting everything they ne...

Anyone’s baby off from the food and any idea why

He suggested lamb chops for dinner and there was a pack of 2 big ones at the shop. Well he wanted to get two packs and have 2 chops to himself. I kept telling him we don't have that much money to be buying 2 packs, especially since I will only eat one and that he should have veggies with it to make the dish more fil...

My LG still enjoys her milk, morning before breakfast, after lunch (small amount) and then night time just before bed after her bath. Is this still okay? She does have meals, not always full meals though.

My LO hasn’t ate good in 3 days he’s refusing meals he’s had before new ones he will only have snacks but is fine in himself so it’s very confusing what’s wrong with him …

How do you teach your baby that dad ALSO knows where the snacks are and has the ability to retrieve them? 🤔🤣😂

My 6 month old has been eating since she was 4 months. She eats rice porridge everyday 3 times a day. And the last three days she just suddenly stopped. I’m freaking out cause I don’t know if something is wrong.

My baby is 15 months old now and i’m still breastfeeding he’s a good eater except when he’s with me, he literally refuses to eat but will eat when his dad or family member feeds him. Does anybody else have this issue?

This may be a silly question but why do 9 month olds need food cutting up into smaller pieces compared to younger babies? Is it purely because young babies need bigger bits to be able to hold?

Has anyone paid and spoken to a professional to get support with their child's eating. If so, did it help?

How many bottles and oz and then meals/snacks does your baby have with examples? Not sure if I’m over or under feeding to be honest!

Can you give me some ideas for Advent Calendars for 2 year olds? He doesn’t have chocolate so I don’t want it to be with that so maybe like a healthy snack? I can’t be asked to make my own as I am very pregnant 🤰🏼 and I would rather buy him something. It doesn’t have to be with food it can be anything TIA

Is your toddler eating their 5 a day every day? My little boy is currently teething, and has been off his food. I’m trying my best to get his 5 a day in him, mostly by doing him a morning smoothie but I just can’t every day! It’s stressing me out! At the minute he likes something chunky that he can chomp on so pizza...

Hi mums, my little boy turned 1 last week and we’ve just dropped down to 2 bottles of cows milk a day- the bottle we dropped was our 3/4pm one, he has lunch at 12/1 and then dinner between 5-5.30, so I’m just wondering what everyone gives as a snack?

My 19 month old is barely having any of his meals lately. What are some nutritious snack options I can give as he loves his snacks

I’ve been seeing some saying 4 months with help sitting. Or 6 months. My pediatrician didn’t seem to be much help. She said I could but also to wait so I’m just wondering what other people have tried or their pediatricians might have said

So if you have an extremely fussy child, what do you put in their lunch box? I'm so tired of accommodating my son's fussiness. I make muffins or pancakes at 10 pm sometimes. I'm so done with this. I wish he'd eat sandwiches like other kids😩

Hey 👋 Wondering if anyone can give me some meal ideas for my 10 month old I'm finding it really hard to think of things

Anyone else’s baby not eating a lot of solids? Weaning has been a massive struggle for us with our girl as she’s only wanted milk up until recently but then again she’s no where near to eating 3 meals, she has a few bites here and there but wouldnt class it as a meal. I’m really worried as she’s 1 next month and sti...
