How much are your big babies eating? My baby is on the 91st percentile, 17lbs and nearly 4 months old. He has 6/7 feeds of 180ml (6oz) and around 1200/1300ml a day.

I've introduced every fruit, yogurt, grain, cereal, vegetable under the sun. He likes frozen avacado but it's always sold out.

My little guy will eat melty puffs or puree that's it. We've tried so many finger foods but he won't take it or anything mashed. No to - Toast, steamed veg sticks, potatoes, homemade pancakes, eggs, rice. Even 7+ months baby pouches are a no go. Anyone any suggestions?

My husband and I are concerned about our 8 year old’s diet. She mainly eats bread (grilled cheese,plain bread, pasta, etc) and potatoes (only fried ones) with the occasional and I mean very occasional Caesar salad, corn on the cob, green beans (only the beans 🤔), raw carrots, or applesauce. She does enjoy pizza (a…

Hi mamas recently im stuck on what 2 snacks to give my LO in between the day. Any suggestions would be appreciated x

He has his vices on the shop like beer and ciggies (no judgement on that please) but I get myself choc and biscuits as my treats and I end up wanting to hide them away so I can enjoy them without him eating them or finishing them off it’s like kids I’m sure 😆

Anyone else's 13 month old just rubbish at eating? Been this way for months and don't remember thr last time he ate a full meal. It's just snacks all day every day because he's not eating meals.

I haven’t been able to get my baby to eat anything besides oatmeal. And he’s 8 months now. Should I be worried? He hasn’t gotten any teeth either. I don’t want to do baby led weaning.
