We haven't given on the cob or loose as been told it's a choking hazard! We'd like to give her loose corn as we regularly have this but not sure if it's safe? There's so much conflicting info about it...!

My little boy is 22 months now so not technically weaning now, but he got given quite a lot of chocolate for Easter from family. I don't really like him having a lot of sugar, so he has been having a tiny little bit every few days (maybe I'm mean) but don't want him getting too used to having lots of sugar as his sn...

Any quick and easy breakfast ideas for a toddler that isn’t keen on breakfast? Must be egg and dairy free

Hiii all! Ftm here and I can tell my baby is very interested in our food! I know we’re not supposed to give anything with salt or sugar, but I want to know if anyone has given their littles any “fun” foods before they make a year? Thank youuu! 🫶🏼

My daughter is 15 almost 16 months on the 7th. She has been so picky when eating meals. Has anyone dealt with this yet or dealing with it now?

My daughter has become so so fussy with her food. Im trying to come up with ways to make it more enjoyable for her. She's just over 2 years old and she is literally refusing everything I make for her. I found some large cookie cutters and made these sandwiches and she actually ate them. Any other fun ideas to get so...

My son is 2.5 years old and refuses just about everything I ask/offer him. Anything from food I offer him (I give him options) to washing his hands or taking off his shoes. He is extremely hard headed and I can’t really reason with him. His speech and understanding is very developed, so I know he is aware of what’s ...

I’d like to hear I’m not alone! My baby is 9.5 months and is rarely interested in food. I’ve been giving him purées since he was 5 months and solids recently. He’ll take 1-2 spoonfuls and then seal his lips and doesn’t want anymore. He’ll play with all the food but it’s the only thing he’s not interested in puttin...

My lo has never been a big eater but this is ridiculous now, he doesn’t eat anything he used to love and today after many attempts of cooking different things he had 2 spoonfuls of peas all day long. I’m at my wits end!!! Then he is up all night because he’s hungry!!! I give him milk before bed but this is just exh...

Really at my wits end. Baby won't have any kind of solids. She is only having formula milk. Don't know what to do. We reduced milk offering and she is losing weight now as she still won't have solids. Tried sweet salty mashed purees finger foods. Tried eating in front of her. She won't feed herself and will take one...

I'm worried my toddler (2yrs 2 months) is literally obsessed with food. She eats absolutely everything and never seems to be full. People comment what a good eater she is hut it's actually really stressful when she is so preoccupied with is all the time. For example she'll wake and ask for breakfast, she'll have cer...

Hey guys, my 8.5 month old hardly eats. I’ve tried purées, baby led, pouches, homemade. He’s not bothered. He either spits it out or throws up after the tiniest mouthful (seems to hate texture) and won’t drink water. Still having lots of bottles obviously. Any advice much appreciated x

Hi!! Just curious to know how often people are feeding their 8m olds. I feel like I’m over feeding my little boy but he never leaves a bottle or empty plate!! Is this too much/too little?? 7.30am - 6 oz 8.30am - breakfast solids eg. Porridge 10 am - 6oz 11.30am - lunch solids eg. Omelette, Greek yog and fruit 12...

Hi all, I have an 11 month old and he’s got very poorly since yesterday he’s refusing bottles and I’m worried about fluids. Any ideas for foods for him that he might like? He’s had strawberry puree and yoghurt and an egg so far today and some kiwi.

Hi, my little one is 11 months, having 3 meals a day, and now I'm going to start introducing snacks. Have really struggled with trying to think of different things to give him for meals and now to do snacks as well - my sleep deprived foggy brain just can't think of what to give. All ideas welcome please!

Can everyone please share what their LO is eating and drinking with times if possible 🙏🏻 Little one is 7 months old and she’s on 5 6oz bottles and almost a full pouch of food once a day.. Just wondering what everyone else’s LO is managing ☺️

Those weaning already is your baby sitting up yet and how much food are they eating? Mine seems keen but pushes most of the food out with his tongue but fusses and cries when he sees's any of us eating. He's been trying to sit up for awhile now and he can roll front to back and back to front very well and does happ...

Hi Mommies, Does anyone of you experience toddler rejects to eat ? I tried many things and kinds but she rejected. If she eat only a little and breast feed . I'm feeling so sad to see she didn't eat. Thank you in advance for your opinion.

My little one (9m) prefer solid food but would quick recipes ideally can make in advance as wakes up and wants breakfast instantly. He is fed up of oats/weetabix and I fed up making banana pancakes and it's not always practical in morning especially when I return to work soon.

Hi! I have a 22 month old that is not easy to please in the food department. I consistently give him new options, veggies, fruits and all the things. I give him what I eat. He typically will only eat the same thing and it’s never a veggie no matter how much I try. I spend a lot of time doing new toddler friendl...
