Mine loves her food, sometimes she will snatch a piece off her plate before we even set it down or she will have one food in each hand ( like she does at this very moment 😂) her favourite dinner in the whole world is cottage pie she does that excited shake with every spoonful x

She's loving it, me a bit iffy lol she will eat anything so far but loves pasta and fruit as well. Really likes toast cut up but will shove a whole piece in her mouth and scare the heck outta me, shes very eager

Still on purées, so scared of giving her finger foods. Any advice?

How do you get him to keep it on the plate and not mushed everywhere and thrown on the floor 🥲 he even threw the plate on the floor and it’s a suction plate

Chinese Takeaway

Hi! We're having Chinese takeaway for dinner tomorrow. I don't really like my almost 9 month old to have really unhealthy foods so will probably make her her own meal but before I do, is there anything from a Chinese that would be suitable for a baby?🩷

Daycare guilt 🥲

My baby (11m) is going to start going to the childminder every day because I’m going back to work. She already goes 3 days a week and loves it there but I still feel wrong about taking her sometimes. Now with 5 days a week I have so much guilt over it 😔😔😔

Am I in the wrong?

Ok so it’s 1:42 pm and I tell my boyfriend I’m hungry and he responds with “your always hungry” mind you i have not eaten anything today. Which I tell him he responds with “I haven’t either and I’m not hungry and I’m bigger then you” mind you I’m exclusively breastfeeding his baby, I’m losing weight all the time due it plus not eating because of this shit he pulls. He also doesn’t want to ever go out to eat which I get but also doesn’t want buy groceries either. It’s not like I ask him to take me to some expensive restaurant I just wanted something cheap or a sandwich. Tired of the controlling and not having any say of the money even tho we both work together to make the money he controls all of it.

Starting real foods

My baby is around 4 months old so I want to start researching how to introduce foods. We want to be giving our baby lots of iron and things like bone marrow, not rice cereals. Are there any good resources to go off of? Thank you!

Nurseries and screen time?

My son (3) is starting (council i.e. "preschool") nursery next week and I've just found out they do group screen time where they sit the kids down to watch Danny Go or "dancing strawberry" (no idea). I hate the thought of this and I am particularly worried as my son is hyper sensitive to overstimulating graphics (he had a type of seizure when watching a bright cartoon once, and complains about his eyes going funny if there's any flashing lights or graphics ever). Do I have any grounds to stand on in requesting they drop this? Is this common practice in nurseries?!

I had a chat with one of the nursery staff members today during our settling in, and explained my concern. Her only response was that they only do screen time "once in a while" which hasn't reassured me.
