Weaning foods

Hey mums! In my thoughts… What are we feeding our little ones? I’m a first time mum, my little boy is 6.5 months now and I haven’t properly started weaning onto solids yet because I didn’t think he was ready. He wasn’t interested and he has bad reflux so he kept getting lots of discomfort and I decided to stop. Anyway I obviously need to start at some point and gradually try different things, it’s now been a couple of weeks so I want to slowly introduce things to him again this week. I don’t know where to start! I see people just doing veg but for how long do you do that? Or people say they just give whatever they eat even at the start. There seems to be so many options 😂

We've been doing one vegetable a day for 7-10 days, baby led weaning. Starting to introduce other bits of food with it, so tonight for example he had some plain pasta, steamed carrots and tomato. He mainly plays with it and knaws at it, not actually loads swallowed I think but that's not an issue at 6 months 😊

Video Games

Anyone’s husband still
play video games or is it just my husband? It’s such a turn off for me 🤢 He just started using an old phone to play a game on there but prior he would go to the basement anytime he could to play but now he just sitting around up here on the phone playing games and it’s so f*cking annoying. He literally spent two hours this morning that phone then took it with him to the bathroom to play while he used the bathroom now he’s literally standing in the kitchen playing while I brush my daughter’s hair.

🩵please no judgment🩵

I’m so sorry this isn’t really about my baby or motherhood. I’m a single mum to a little boy and I’ve been working my absolute arse off whilst i can get baby free time but i just feel like im constantly broke. i always make sure my baby has everything and ill do whatever I can to make sure he has what he needs and wants. so i got myself into debt. he’s just had his bday so that was klarna and clearpay used. When i became a single mum i had no where to go so i had a loan for hotel rooms. I used a credit card to replace all his clothes, toys, bottles, steriliser, cot, walker etc. i left with nothing and had to build it all back up again. I try as much as i can to make the monthly payments etc but it’s just not helping. does anyone know how to get help with this ? I’ve called the company’s but non of them seem to understand or hear me. It’s like talking to a wall. I know it seems silly but I truly just wanted best for my little boy in a really hard and 💩 situation.
Thank you for taking time to read 🩵

Teething?

Hi, is it possible my 11 week old is teething? His cheeks are often quite red, nappies are wetter and he’s now sucking both his hands quite vigorously even though he’s just been fed.

11m hardly eats

If I spoon feed him it’ll take more than half a hour with MAXIMUM entertainment. If I blw he has maybe two mouthfuls on his own doing. He don’t even care if it’s sweet or savoury he will just not eat or want anything unless I force it.
Also he’s not teething. I’m so tired

17 month old won’t eat anything!

My daughter has not long turned 17 months old and she won’t eat breakfast, won’t eat her lunch just won’t eat anything I give to her, I’m really struggling because she needs to eat something and she’s getting up multiple times a night likely because she’s hungry however refusing any kinds of food I give her, is anyone else dealing with this at all?
