I see your babies having all the fancy plates, all the berries that may I say are currently out of season lol. You broke yet? Mine loves avocados and every expensive fruit you can think of. This bougie taste is making me wanna sign up for bankruptcy 😭🤣🤣🤣

Has anyone started giving their little one any food yet? Mine is 4 months today and is quite a heated debate between me and my husband

My son hates porridge. But after success with baked porridge oat bars, this week I’ve been giving him breakfast crumbles and he LOVES them- just incase you need a breakfast idea to add to your list! They’re perfect for autumn mornings, and a great way to use up all the bits of fruit I end up having left over!

He will demolish 3 big meals a day plus snacks plus 4-5 milk bottles( 6oz)!! Is this healthy or too much? all of the babies we know around his age eat so little and now im kinda worried

My son is 8 months old and nurses nonstop all night. I am not sure if he is extra hungry or it’s just for comfort. I am looking into organic cereals to try to add to breast milk or even formula to try. Any recommendations?

About to start weaning my baby, do I give purées? Or do I just go straight to her picking things up and eating them?

My little girl eats meals at nursery like mince dinner and cottage pie, I thought brilliant I can make some in little muffin trays and freeze them. How do we do gravy? Even low salt gravy is still a big no no on that yukka app. I know she’s not going to have having like 100g’s of it but is there a better option o...

So my 1 year old LOVED anything I made him, now he’ll only eat grapes kiwis and strawberries from his high chair… everything else he throws off. And I take him out of the high chair because i won’t make him anything else. So he eats everything off the floor… I do vacuum his area 3 times a day, but is there a way to ...

Has anyone got one of these? They seem like a great idea and my boy is obsessed with watching me cook and prepare food but I’m worried it’s just not safe at their age yet? Or is now a good time to start teaching them safety? Thanks (won’t let me attach photo so one in comments but I’m sure you all know what I’m talk...

I was planning on giving my little girl her first solids today but I'm so confused! So she has a bottle at around 7am, 10am, 1pm, 4pm, 7pm - so when do I give her some food?! I was planning around midday, but won't that be too close to a bottle? Thank you in advance ☺️

Hi all, my lo is 1 year old and a few weeks ago they had their vaccinations. Since then I have noticed a really big change to his appetite and milk intake. He used to be such a foodie and now is very picky, starts whining and crying at the sight of some foods / spoon and is drinking significantly less milk. He pre...

Does anyone else just feel like they’ve gone backwards with weaning? My boy was so good on solids at 6/7 months and now just chucks everything, has a couple bites of something and throws it, won’t open his mouth to try things. I see other babies just smashing it and eating so much and cant help but feel a little dis...

Anyone else's little one only want milk and porridge when they are teething? Seems like she's teething all the time recently.

Please can i have some lunch ideas for finger foods? Our girl starts childminders soon and is mostly spoon fed by her choice. Our childminder has said it is easier if she self feeds but she just isn’t interested. I don’t feel like I can give her a bowl of tuna avocado to feed herself. Any suggestions please?

my daughter is coming up on a month old and she’s a VERY messy eater. it goes all down her mouth. please tell me why my mil has told my boyfriend to put our daughter onto stage 2 formula???

Made him hamburger helper (his favorite after a crap day) and made vegan Mac and cheese loaded with carrots, butternut squash, and chickpeas for me and toddler (who also won’t eat veggies). I asked him to put away the leftover cheese sauce from the blender while I nurse baby… Him- “I already used it all” Me- “huh? ...

How have yall started solids? Every time I try and feed my LO solids (mashed potatoes, strawberries, avocados, etc) she spits up every time and then doesn’t act interested. I feel like she’s falling behind with solids. She eats baby food like a champ though.

Between teething and general toddlerness I feel like this kid will never eat again. It’s definitely frustrating 😭

Hey guys, my 14mo refuses to even try new foods. I’m trying to get her to eat more veggies but I’m struggling to figure out how without forcing it in her mouth. Has anyone gone through this? What did you guys do? Plzzzz help😭 My dad said I should use his method, which was “pao pao” ..

At my son’s various growth spurts, he’s been more prone to refusing food. This current growth spurt right at the 8 month mark is definitely the worst. He usually has a big appetite but now he’s refusing milk at times and almost all solids. Before I could feed him about an average of 6 oz of solids daily. Now, he’s o...
