How are you coordinating meals and bedtime after nursery pick up? I'm finding it hard to fit everything in unless I pick baby up at 5 sharp and that's not possible if I have a lot of work on!
I find it so stressful!! And I try to prepare as much as I can beforehand when he's playing or napping, but still, even if I'm only actually cooking for 15 minutes max he's still glued to my hip, screaming as if he's starved!
Any ideas on how to get my toddler to eat vegetables? She is 3 and refuses everything. Desperate for help
Hey ladies, my partner and I plan playdates with another couple and their toddler. We get along well with them, we're from different cultures so there are some differences but it's all acceptable and understood. The playdates are usually outdoors. So since the beginning something I've noticed is that they hardly pac...

It seems that everyone except my husband is pressuring me to start my daughter on solids. I keep telling everyone that sheās not ready for solids. I give her little bites of our food throughout the day but to sit down and have a meal itās not happening. She literally gags/chokes on solids then pukes. Iāve tried tea...
Hello girlies! I am 5 weeks pregnant and it's all so overwhelming! š I feel like anything I do is a danger to the baby, there's so many lifestyle changes you have to make, it feels like too much sometimes. I've been told I can't eat leftovers, but I have a full time job, I can't cook every single day!And it'sā¦
Hey, my little girl will be 9 months soon. I have found the weaning journey really difficult! I have now found that she prefers pouches and will scoff those, but when it comes to home cooked she doesnāt eat half as much. I have also really tried with some finger foods: toast, omelettes, pancakes and pin wheels but s...
Hi, has anyone yet introduced 3 meals a day?? At the moment, my baby has breakfast at 9am and dinner at around 4:30/5pm. Sheās 7 months tomorrow, and still wakes up twice during the night. Iāve given her some ālunchā today wanting to see if it will make a difference to her night feeds! Sheās formula fed and sti...
Since starting solids at 6m, our LO has gone right off his milk. He was combi fed, majority BF with one bottle in the morning and one at night as advised by HV and GP. As soon as he was even having tiny tastes, he dropped his morning bottle, and the more he ate, the less milk he would take. Even offering milk befor...
Iāve just started weaning but my baby is not interested when I try to feed him myself, he likes to grab/hold & feed himself. What foods did people start with for baby led weaning?
Kinda struggling if Iām honest as my first baby wasnāt like this. Introducing solids and textures was so much fun. Now itās stressful and I feel like my efforts making purĆ©es and meals are wasted. My baby likes yogurt and very smooth purĆ©es occasionally I would say 70% of the time declines. Is there any advice? I l...

Thinking of starting solids early at about 4-5 months old? Has anyone done it? How did it go?
Any ideas or recommendations on a poor 1 year old, whoās refusing food, water, dummy, has a loose bum, croaky voice, only taking formula/ cows milk.
Starting to feel really helpless with the fact my daughter will only ever eat a few certain things. I try and mix up her food as much as I can for her to try new things - and all she wants is the things with not much nutrition š (crisps, snacks etc) she will hardly eat vegetables and is fussy with fruit. Today Iā¦

My 13 month old is stil not feeding himself using a spoon or fork yet. I encourage this daily and a few times he showed interest. But now just throws the spoon. He can eat finger food himself Should I be concerned? I feel like every other baby is feeding themselves by this stage
