13 Month Old Won't Eat Solid Food! HELP!!!!!

Hi, I am having a huge problem with getting my gorgeous 13 month old daughter to eat solid food. I have tried everything..you name it! She has no interest in it. I sit her in her high chair with her food in her own little plate and she either cries or throws it on the floor. She does eat the stuff that is bad for her, though..French fries, cookies, However I don't really give that type of food to her because I don't want her developing bad eating habits. I don't know what to do!! How can I get her to eat. I am trying to wean her off her...

12 Month Old Allergic to Milk?

Hello moms! My 12 month old recently made the switch to organic whole milk. He has been having a major problem with constipation and then diarrhea. Then, after his milk this morning, he threw up. He's been on regular milk for about a week now and before he was doing fine on regular formula. (He was on Enfamil since i had to stop breastfeeding at 6 months.) I was wondering if anyone has heard of a baby being allergic to milk when they did fine on normal formula. Could his tummy upset just be coincidence? He has no other symptoms of...

20 Month Old Not Talking Enough

Hello!! I am new to this. I have a 20 month old daughter and she is talking and she says new words every day, but I have people telling me that she isn't talking enough and I am not doing a good job. It's starting to wear on me! We do everything...read tons of books everyday (she loves to read), talk to her normal; we have never used baby talk with her. It's starting to really bug me that people can be so judgmental. Any suggestions out there???

Cereal and Sleep

Hey moms! My daughter will be 4 months on Easter. For the past several months she would wake only 2 times during the night consistently around 1 and again around 5 and then up for good about 8. The last week or so she has been waking every 1-2 hours. I try to let her cry for awhile and then try putting her binkie back in her mouth but she continues with a blood curdling scream. The only way I can get her to stop is to feed her. (She is breastfed.) She only eats for about 2 minutes and then goes right back to sleep so I don't think...

My Toddler Is Extremely Picky Eater!

My 2.5 year old son is a picky eater. My husband and I are SO frustrated! Our problem lately is that we are trying to be more consistent with having "family dinners" at the table, with the goal of getting him to try new things. We always encourage him in a positive way to just take one bite or just "try it". However, most of the nights we try this, he won't eat anything and then he whines and complains and gets up from the table, but then hangs around the table and begs for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Even though we hate to see him...

Table Foods for 9 Month Old

Per the advice of our pediatrician, we are skipping Stage 3 foods and are going right to table foods for our 9 month old daughter. She has 8 teeth and seems to do well with chewing and texture. I am just terribly uncreative when it comes to this. I have given her French toast, crackers, Cheerios, canned and steamed vegetables, spaghetti, small pieces of tender chicken and soup. Is there anything else that your babies love? Also, how much do you expect your kids to eat at this age? I sort of feel like this is more for introducing the...
