Peanut butter & banana on toast with raspberries and blueberries. Should I be offering anything else with it? He also has a morning bottle of formula

I feel like a horrible mom. Sometimes when we are on the go and to try some foods I’ve given my son the Happy Baby purée pouches, he loves them. But I looked them up and there is a recall for arsenic and lead products in them. I’m so scared. It says they could cause neurological problems. He’s been eating them for a...

My LO turned 6 months last week and we started weaning a week ago. We are following the ‘how to wean your baby book’. He has tried broccoli, avocado, courgette and potato. We are doing both purée and whole foods. We stopped for a few days as he had a cold. I know it’s early days but he’s not interested in food at ...

My LO is almost 6 months and from 5.5 months I've been giving him first tastes of veggies. My MiL looks after him 2 days a week whilst I'm at work, she's asked about food but I said not to worry about giving him anything yet. He's not properly eating and I want to be there when he tries new food. When my husband...

What’s everyone’s go to snacks for their 9/10 month olds?

Any advice

Hi all! I feel a bit at sea with starting weaning. I feel confident in actually giving my baby the food but I feel lost as to how often/how much/when food can replace a bottle. There just doesn’t seem to be a lot of detailed info out there, it’s all just following baby, and I’m someone who likes a template to go off...

Nearly every time I feed my 6 month old baby porridge or a pouch from a bowl. I spoon feed him and he's eating away but then I have to take the spoon out of his mouth to put more food on the spoon so I can continue feeding him. Every time I do this he starts screaming hysterically. I am simply not fast enough. A par...

So I didn't know this but I had wic with my first baby and she is turning 6 this year so it's been years. But I have wic again and this month they didn't give me any money for fruits and veggies. Only Gerber container food. I'm very anxious to give him baby food out of a jar because I keep hearing recalls of toxic m...

So I’ve been giving my baby a variety of baby food and baby cereal for the past couple of months he is almost 8 months old and I feel like it’s a fight to get him to eat I feed him purées cause when we put food in his tray he will just play with in his hands and doesn’t attempt to put any of it in his mouth, but whe...

I’ve tried to feed my baby some veggie and fruit purées but she just isn’t interested. She took a tiny bit of carrot the first time but the last couple of days just closes her mouth and turns her head away. Any advice? Is this normal?

Anyones baby turned one and gone from a big foodie to not eating?

My son is almost 9 months and doesn’t eat. I’ve been weaning him since 5/6 months, and I’ve tried every way and advice possible. You name it, I’ve tried it. Nothing works. He isn’t underweight, he’s active and playful, he sleeps ok, drinks his milk, will have a snack here and there like yoghurt or banana, but doesn’...

We started at 6 months with purées for first tastes. That went well so moved to spoon feeding purée savoury (blended what we were having/made portions of salt-free meals etc) and we’ve basically never got any further! Finger food goes on the floor, sometimes a little nibble but 90% on the floor. Some days she liv...
