My little one is 6 & 1/2 months old and she doesn’t seem interested in weaning. We have tried with purees snd will have 1 mouthful and then turn her head away and spit it out. Anyone else in the same boat

Hi all! I’m going to be away with baby for 2 nights, 3 days staying in a hotel. When we’ve been away previously, baby has had puree foods but now she refuses to eat unless it’s finger food haha. What do i do about breakfast and dinner?! Limited options in regards to being able to cook since we will be in a hotel r...

Looking for any easy lunch ideas for fussy toddlers? We are stuck in the ham sandwich, toast and cheese, and beans on toast rut. She won’t eat eggs, and I occasionally make pancakes (sometimes she’ll eat them, sometimes she won’t). I’ve mostly given up on her food as she’s very fussy, and I’m hoping maybe I can fi...

What kind of sippy cup do yall 1 year old drink milk out of

How would you describe your baby’s eating/appetite? My little girl is so fussy with textures

Baby will be 8 months next week and is currently having two meals a day / breakfast and dinner. Both are usually purées/chunkier ones for dinner. She has tried some Ella’s sticks and liked them but I am not brave enough to give her any pieces of food. Is anyone else struggling with the same? She has gagged few time...

Hi, my LG is 1 year old she was sick all day yday and hasn’t eaten a thing today but has drunk some milk. Would you substitute the food for milk today? Keep offering the food but when she denies it use milk? Hate seeing her so poorly and tired x

My LG started her weaning journey quite slowly, hated everything i gave her, didnt want to eat off a spoon ect but in the last month or so she really got into it, demolishing meals and shoving bucket loads in her mouth at once. Now shes just not interested, sometimes she'll cry after being in her high chair for 5 mi...

I want to cry- i have an 19 month old boy who hates food. Every main meals i tell him its food time and he sits on a chair and i spoon feed him whilst the tv is on (this is our usual routine) tv only on whilst eating. He moves his head shuts his mouth and i can barely get him to eat. So i ditched this and tried havi...

Does anyone use the premade toddler meals from supermarket for their toddlers? I started using them when we were weaning and now my son refuses my cooking and will only eat them! I'm not too concerned as they are full of good ingredients I'm just aware he's getting older and refuses home cooking. Does anyone else us...

My daughter won’t eat much for lunch, she will really only eat ‘snacks’ can I get some lunch inspiration or anything I can batch make for her lunch?! Desperately need her to eat more than crisps and wafers 😭

not sure if i should be adding things like a sprinkle of salt and pepper to eggs bc he prefers it, or just avoid it completely…

Hello ladies, I have a friend who’s 3 year old refuses to eat, she has resorted to spoon feeding him but she said he barely eats when she does that either. It’s been going on for months, she told me today that he wears 18 month clothes so it sounds like he must be severely under weight? He goes to nursery so I’m not...

My 10 month old prefers to be spoon/hand fed and has no interest in baby led weaning. He’s doesn’t touch any food that I offer. Does anyone have tips? My eldest son was not like this.

Feel like my little girl is so behind with her eating. She’ll happily eat fruit and porridge etc but if it’s a meal she just refuses it or throws it off her high chair. She won’t have scrambled eggs, omelette, toast, sandwiches, snacky bits like cheese/ham/cucumber or anything like that 🥲 I keep offering it but…

Oh ladies, I need some advice. My little one started nursery a few weeks ago. He is really struggling when it comes to eating. At home, he's a massive foodie, but at nursery, he isn't touching his food at all. Has this happened with your little ones? What do i do?

Does anyone have any good advice or resources for weaning?? I’m so confused by it all! If anyone has any answers to the below that would be great: Does it matter which meal time i start with? Do i build up one meal to multiple ingredients before going onto the next? So wait until breakfast is a bigger meal with ...

Hey! My little one is nearly 9 months and not enjoying weaning at all. He doesn’t take the spoon, pouches, BLW and ends up crying. He currently has 5 bottles per day (4 x 90ml - 150ml) and 1 8 x oz before bed (combi fed). We also eat at the table for dinner with him so he watches us eat. I’ve tried giving him soli...

I'm having problems with my 16 month old, since he started solids I've been trying to give him different meats different textures but he just won't eat it. Anyone else had this problem or any advice
