Chocolate

I would say too little. She doesn’t know it’s Easter so don’t feel bad.

I just got my daughter a little bunny toy last year for Easter, she was only 7 months. I wouldn’t bother with chocolate, she doesn’t know what she’s missing

okay thank you x

I have gotten her some toys too, I’ll just leave the chocolate thank you x

We all got my nephew Peter Rabbit things for his first Easter, as he loved him. 🐰 She doesn’t know it’s Easter or that other people are having chocolate, so wouldn’t worry about that. Other people have been eating all kinds of food she hasn’t her whole life after all!

Too young in my opinion. My two year old has CMPA so chocolate is a tricky one anyway but we're still not giving him a dairy free egg.

that’s true, thinking I’ll just stick with Easter toys and cute pictures this year!

was thinking chocolate pudding for babies but again not sure if it is too kuch sugar. Think im gonna leave it this year and see how I feel next year! As everyone said she wont know x

A little is fine. I honestly don’t see why not.

My boy is 9 months and I've bought him a teddy and a book instead of chocolate 🙂

My girl is almost 11 months and I haven't got her anything, she doesn't know its easter, so she doesn't even need a toy lol. She has cmpa anyway, so it would be horrible dairy free crap lol

Chocolat is not recommended for this age don’t feel bad for not giving to her she is only six months she doesn’t know what’s going on

my girl won’t be having chocolate for as long as possible due to the caffeine! She actually has CMPA so currently can’t have it anyway but even if she didn’t I wouldn’t give it to her. I got her an easter bunny book and that’s it!

I didn't give chocolate to my little one til much later than that. He's 2 now and very rarely has it, only a tiny bit if I'm having some and he's interested as he always wants to try what I'm having.

my mums wanting to give her it, says it’s the only thing she asks for 🤦🏼‍♀️

No

If you’re going to, I would recommend a really dark chocolate. White chocolate has the highest amount of sugar in

ahh right okay thank you, ive just always seen people giving kids white chocolate so thought it was the best option x

Think it’s propaganda from the milkey bar kid adverts 🤣 white chocolate isn’t even made of proper cocoa ! Just coco butter and sugar

ahh right see I had milky bars when I was a kid so just thought oh yeah white chocolate is just milk 🤣

I gave both my girls chocolate on their first Halloween one was 5 months and one was 6 months. Neither of them had chocolate again until they were almost a year old and it was in baked goods. I wouldn’t make it a habit but if you want to give them a tiny taste it’ll be ok

I just wouldn’t. 6 months is too young and she won’t know the difference anyway.

I gave my daughter 2 chocolate buttons her first easter. She was 6 months. Her brothers were getting chocolate and she wanted it. I wasn’t going to say no I just gave a very small amount. She was fine! She wasn’t buzzing from caffeine or any of the other silly things suggested in these comments. My daughter is a fab eater and has a very balanced diet.

If you want to give her a little bit go for it 😃 she’ll love it x

why are people so obsessed with giving babies chocolate?? 😅 I don’t get it. I will be avoiding it with my girl for as long as possible because of the caffeine, they can’t miss something they never had! Thankfully I don’t have any grandparents involved (baby dad ditched and my mum lives in Canada 😅) the only people she has are my brother and sister in law but they would never argue with me about anything.

Ahhh I hate baby talk 🙈 my baby actually seems to dislike it now too and looks at people like they are crazy if they do a baby voice 😂
There is just no need for it in my opinion. It doesn’t help them develop.

Your mum sounds great so be thankful for that! Hopefully mil will realise that you are the boss soon ❤️

I don’t disagree with you at all, it’s easy for me because my girl doesn’t have siblings and I don’t eat much chocolate especially in front of her (dairy allergy). It must be really difficult when they see older siblings having it!
It is definitely personal choice and we just do what we think is best as a mum and that’s all we can do.
My personal choice is that I wouldn’t want her having the caffeine or the amount of sugar in white chocolate so we will be avoiding as long as possible.

my girl is the same, as soon as it comes to dinner she goes for the vegetables first. I don’t think I’ve found anything she doesn’t like yet.

Ha ha that’s hilarious! Mine is obsessed with lights too! It doesn’t have to be anything special just a normal light she hasn’t seen before and she will stare for ages 😂
My girl is 8.5 months and babbles no end, her first and only word so far has been ‘Pab’ which is what we call the dog Pablo 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

I don’t see anything wrong with giving them chocolate. They’re allowed a treat. I don’t care if you do or don’t, but if you don’t it’s not your place to then judge another mum who make the decision to give them it 🤷🏻‍♀️ it’s not like they are eating a full sized Easter egg every single day. A small taste at that age would be enough, but still if you want to allow her a taste you’re the mum, you decide, especially one milky button I’d say nothing wrong with that at all xx

thank you 💗 think I’m just gonna see what happens now. I’ve got the milky buttons already before I posted this but getting mixed comments so will see how I feel 🤣xx

My son is 1, he had chocolate cake for his dinner. I pick my battles. Would get heavily judged for it on this app but I don’t care 🤷🏻‍♀️ always allowed him chocolate. You said in the post it would be just even 1 button or something which really is just for taste! Sick of seeing videos on TikTok as well absolutely slamming mums for allowing them chocolate like cmon..as I said, completely up to you. Don’t feel pressured to, or not to xx

No. Why do you feel bad ? She is just starting to learn to eat food... She won't miss the chocolate.

I just felt bad because we’d be having kids round (cousins, friends etc) who will be having chocolate and dont like her missing out

Yes I understand. I gonna be the same with my 18 months old because now he is asking what others have and we have a Easter event tomorrow. It's harder now that he is bigger. He never had chocolate or sweets before. You always get to decide but at 6 mo, if you give her chocolate that would be more for you than for her as she won't understand yet what it is. 🙂

If it helps I'm not giving my daughter any chocolate. She's joining in by being in her highchair with us at the table for lunch and my mum has done some veg for her to try with us.
She has a younger brother who'll be having eggs and my niece and nephew are coming over and we're doing an Easter egg hunt for them. She won't be having any but I'm going to include her in other ways. She'll come down for the hunt with us and I'm going to get her out of the pram and show her what they have etc so she gets experiences.
At this age she has 0 idea what chocolate is so although you say she's missing out, to her, she's not. The sights and sounds if you make a fuss will be an amazing experience for her in themselves because that's they're world right now ❤️

Don't do it to yourself, shell never sleep again!

mine has chocolate he sleeps through 7-7 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

maybe its just mine lol i gave her a tiny piece today (she's 13 months) and she wont take any naps and shes gone insane

has she had it before? I introduced it a while ago so maybe he’s just over the sugar rush 😂

Thank you everyone for commenting. I didn’t give her any I was going to but got too scared 🤣 hope you all had a lovely Easter 🐣

she hasnt had it before but she did get like this the first time she had strawberries so could be she's just very sensitive to sugar!
