My boy 9.5 months loved these! I had to give them in bitesize pieces otherwise he shoves the whole thing in at once. Tomato puree, Courgette, Tomato, spinach and cheese.

My baby started not to eat solids. We cook for him and make it a purer and he only takes 3-4 spoons. He use to eat solids a month ago with no problem He has three teeth Please help 🤯🤯 He is so attached to boobs.

He’ll eat breakfast, and of course snacks, but lunch and dinner he hardly eats?!

Any one else's 20 month old, eats all their breakfast, all their lunch but make them a good meal for dinner and won't touch it , throws a tampturm but if I give her like crackers or something she eats it. Been like it for past 3 days , she was fine before would eat her dinner . X

Hi I have started to try my little boy with puree veggies only likes so far sweet potatoe & the Ella’s kitchen pouches which he liked a few of I’m starting with puree due to my confidence. Doesn’t seem that interested that over interested yet - does that mean he isn’t ready or would u persevere? Thanks

My LO is 10 months (starting nursery next month) and always had a combo of purées and BLW from 6-8.5 months. then she started taking massive bites, shoving lots in and struggling to break it down (I know this is normal for that age), but she would panic very quickly and then I couldn’t get her to copy me spitting fo...

If your toddler is anything like mines, a snack bin has done wonders. I put one in their play space and they just come grab what they want, when they want it. Before my oldest would throw fits if you didn’t guess what snack he wanted. Something so simple can make such a difference.

This lunch is so easy and quick to make when I forget to pre-cook something or me and his Dad aren’t eating with him at lunch time. A real crowd pleaser too! The plates normally clean at the end. Scrambled egg, avocado and a toasted bagel with butter.

Any tips on getting my child to drink fluids that isn’t milk? He has his puréed food, Melty sticks and milk. Tried him on water and it was a no, tried him on fruit juice in water and that was a no. Any ideas to get him to drink?

My 7 month old is on two, sometimes three meals a day. Usually breakfast & dinner. I give her half a pouch of Ella’s kitchen for dinner. How much are others giving their babes? I don’t want to give too much so she still drinks her milk which usually hovers around 600-700ml a day (I only get that much in her becaus...

Hi girls, Has anyone else struggled with this? My 11.5 year old has completely stopped eating and his milk intake is very low too. I try giving him 7-8oz if he doesn’t want his meal and he might only take 3-4oz. Since Thursday he has just completely refused solids and can’t get him to eat anything. What I have notic...

so my daughter is starting solids which means im trying to cook more, the only issue is hubby is a little picky lol. any recommendations for easy meals?

I know some love overly ripen bananas to make other recipes, and I do too. But I’m asking about eating the banana as is.

We’ve got chicken for protein, noodles with cream sauce for carb and dairy, vegetables and fruit. Am I missing anything? My toddler will chew through this and ask for more, so I thought maybe he was deficient in something but I don’t know what.

I haven’t started weaning my LB yet but me and my partner can’t seem to agree on what we should do when it comes to introducing foods. I would have been happy to have him try things like ready brek, rusks, weetabix etc but he wants him to have only natural things and now I feel like I don’t know where to start.. not...

How many meals is your baby on now? And what’s your routine with milk? I want to offer a third meal now but I’m struggling with the milk to solid balance and feel like he’s having too much milk

Can someone please give me a little list of what they first ever gave their baby when first weaning them onto food and how they did it like mashed up or in a blender or in one of them little food things they can suck on. I have a few months to go but wanna start getting some ideas. Thankyou🩷

Starting weaning next week as my son will be 6 months, without sounding silly do I follow a particular routine with weaning at this stage? Do I give him breakfast for example porridge in the morning and then something else in the evening? Again like veggies? Also am I able to introduce yogurt and fruits too at the ...

She used to be fine with soup/stews when we started weaning up until she turned one and then it’s gone downhill from there. She’s now 18 months and still refuses to even try it. I’ve tried giving it in different forms, with rice, with bread to dip etc but she just won’t try it 😭
