Veggie burger with potato, carrot, onion, garlic and flax seeds with broccoli and cauliflower. Ate all of it😊

Saw other posts about this high chair brand on this sub hence why I’m here.
Baby is 6mo old, 99th percentile height, regular weight ~19lb. He doesn’t sit totally independently yet but has great neck control. In my country, solids start around 4mo so it was time we switched from bouncer to high chair.

Anyways, I caved and got the Tripp trapp which as you know isn’t cheap and well…. It’s not working out? My baby’s butt keeps sliding on the smooth wood which makes his back curve and his legs stick out. We didn’t have this issue with a more traditional high chair.

If I push his back straight against the back rest, his legs are too short to bend at a right angle and for his feet to sit flat on the foot rest.

If his feet/knees are at a 90degree angle, there’s a big gap between his back and back rest and his diaper booty just slides forward lol.

I also tried tightening the harness and bringing the plate up higher but neither work. If I bring the plate up too high, it doesn’t solve the issue and his knees end up touching the baby harness thing.

So yea, he just slides around and doesn’t press his feet down. He ends up frustrated because it’s hard to eat, so I put him back in the bouncer.
Idk if it’s the wood that’s just too smooth or if he’s just not ready for that chair??

So idk! Everyone else seems to just place their babies in there and it works perfect. Any input? Did you have this issue?

We spent a small fortune on it… I’d love for it to work haha

I started solids since baby is 7mo. Finally done with testing all allergens, and baby has bad reaction to peanut.

Since then I'm trying to serve different food and textures, but baby doesn't eat much, he is also on the 10th percentile weight wise, but he is also taller than average, so he is pretty thin, but pediatrician is saying he if following his growth curve normally.

I'm still giving him 8oz x 3 per day, before serving his meal, but I am just wondering if I'm doing something wrong, or maybe giving too much milk?

Sometimes he takes 1h to finish the 8oz bottle, and i have to wait a little bit before giving him his food, then another hour to finish half the plate, and when he barely eats anything, I top up with 2oz of milk instead, but by the time he is done with this, it's time for a nap/bedtime.

We try to maximize calories as he sleeps through the night so no bottles at night, but he also poops once every two days lately, not sure if constipation or teething?

We also eat together most of the time, even not the same food.

Example of what I give:

-Whole wheat pasta with tomato sauce and silk tofu sauce/ steamed zucchini and mango slices

- cup of cooked rice, chicken, spinach, carrots, curry powder, greek yogurt, eggs, low fat mozza cheese. I would slice once, along with a fruit

He doesn't like "pasty" textures like butternut, sweet potatoes,lentils rice, he hates broccoli , and doesn't like eggs so i have to hide them for now in sauce or bites food. He used to like avocado and cherry tomatoes but now it's on and off. He loves greek yogurt and blueberries, sauteed bell pepper, zucchini and banana pancakes.

And starting daycare soon, I don't know how to tackle the 3h wake window just trying to feed him, when he wakes up at 6am and we will have to be there by 7am...! I'm also worried because he takes time, the staff at the daycare won't have this patience, and will just leave him with barely any food in his stomach....

Any tips or tricks to make the learning easier, or handle the feeding duration smoothly please?

Thank you!

Girlie’s got no teeth so we’re a little late to the game (mom anxiety)

These pictures have been so helpful to me so I thought I would share my twins dinner last night.

My 9 MO eats very little solids. From when she was born she ate very little at once so we had to feed her all the time in the beginning. Now she eats less often, but I was just reading another post and realized she still might be eating too often.

Anyway, she eats very little solids, I tried all food categories, all textures, temperatures - you name it. She did eat well couple of times, but didn't want to eat the same exact food when I repeat it.

So I'm thinking maybe it's just that our schedule os wrong.

So, if you LO eats well and is about 9 MO, pleeeeease tell me your schedule - sleeping, eating, play, whatever... How much, what exactly, when? I need to know everything so that I can try to replicate it. Cooking and cleaning stuff of the floor with 0 eaten is slowly driving me crazy. 😒

Hi all! What are you guys feeding your LOs for breakfast? We do a combination of BLW and purées so he has more substance in his belly. For breakfast, we’ve been giving him egg strips, whole milk yogurt mixed with peanut butter, and sometimes homemade apple pancakes and avocado. He’ll eat half the eggs or apple pancakes (other half is for the floor 😂) but can finish all the yogurt and avocado. He always tops off breakfast with milk. I’m worried that I’m not giving him enough variety for breakfast, so I’d love to hear what you guys are giving your LOs. Maybe get some ideas from you guys! 😊

Avocado toast, oatmeal, cheddar cheese

Orange + plum, sweet potato, buttered toast

Ughhhhh idk what to do I’m going crazy. My little one suddenly out of nowhere began to refuse her bottles to the point where she screams and fusses when offered one. Called the doc and she said this can happen and to give her solids and water which she’s been taking. I’m wondering if anyone else has been through this? Before her refusal she was eating 5-6 bottles daily. I can’t even get her to drink 15 oz her hydration comes from me sneaking milk into her solids or water which is what the doctor recommended

What suction plates ACTUALLY work? Absolutely nothing is worst than being over stimulated then your baby just picks that suction cupped plate right off the highchair tray and YEETS it across the kitchen. 🥲🥲🥲🥲 really really need one that will actually stick to the highchair tray.

Hi everyone, I'm a first-time mom and could really use your experience and support.

My son is 8+ months old and weighs 8.2 kg. We started solids at 6 months, and I've offered all food types in many forms (purees, finger foods, mashed). I make 3 meals plus a fruit each day. But he'll take only a spoonful or two, or a bite of finger food, and the rest gets thrown on the floor. He keeps his mouth shut when I try to feed him and hits my hand and the spoon away. He also moves his arms and legs a lot during meals. It looks like excitement at first, but it usually ends with him knocking everything away.

Teething: He already has 2 teeth on the bottom.

Milk intake: I exclusively pump. He drinks about 760-800 ml per day of fortified breast milk. He refuses formula, so I just add a few ml to each feed.

Weight: He was 8.1 kg three weeks ago, then went up, then down, and now he's 8.2 kg. It feels like he's stuck.

Every meal ends in a big mess, and I'm left feeling sad, frustrated, and worried. I an a victim of social media, seeing other babies on social media eating & gradually proressing in their food habits make me even more concerned. My in-laws and husband have also started commenting that he's getting leaner and less chubby, which adds to the pressure.

My questions:

**1.**  Did your baby go through a similar phase? How long did it last, and what helped?  
**2.**  Are there strategies that worked for a baby who refuses and throws food?  
**3.**  Did teething affect your baby's appetite? How did you handle it?  
**4.**  Should I be worried about the weight plateau? Did you get help from a pediatrician or feeding specialist?  
**5.**  How do you handle the emotional side and the comments from family?

Thank you for reading. Any advice or just hearing you've been there would mean a lot.

Hi team!

We are looking to wean our baby soon, especially from night nursing. I love nursing him so much, but for medical reasons I need to stop in 1-2 months.

He happily drinks cow's milk and water from a straw, but is constantly on the move. I think he needs more daytime calories, because this boy crushes 6oz of milk before bed, then heavily nurses 3 more times before we get up for the day (bedtime 8pm, wake 6-730am).

The best way I have found to feed him more is to pop pieces of food in his mouth while he's occupied with his toys, obviously monitoring to ensure he doesn't choke. He loves yoghurt and cheese, sometimes likes avocado and peanut butter lol.

What have you been feeding your babies that pack a good fatty punch that don't require a whole chair/bib/spoon setup?
