#mombassadorchat Today, we're chatting about picky eaters and feeding baby with @smilingwithmyawesome4kids 👶🏽 Share your…

At first my baby wouldn't want to eat meats. So I would alternate with a veggie usually carrots (he loves carrots lol) and eventually he would eat the meats alone. But at first he would spit it out or just take it out of his mouth and smear it on his highchair. And I is good to keep a food diary I found out that my little one is allergic to eggplant

My son has a texture issue 😔

Children tend to choose fruits and vegetables over meats . Oh No Eggplant is my favorite @titaa517

@rozrod Try to hide the new texture in his favorite foods such at homemade mash potatoes my youngest doesn't care for certain textures but I keep trying

My 2yo had boycotted anything green/veggies. I kept putting them on her plate in small batches anyway hoping she would use it. I would usually cook the veggies in only garlic powder (she loves garlic) and taught her how to just put a little bit of pink salt on them herself. She would at least TRY them after she salted them and we would show her how yummy our veggies were. She's finally eating green beans again and has started sampling raw carrots if I chop them into disks. I've tried a few other things, too that seem to be working like praising her when she does try something and I let her know that she needs to at least TRY it even if she chooses not to eat it, that way we both have an option to win.

Excellent advice @ellepilch

@smilingwithmyawesome4kids yes it's it squirts, or too soft or too crunchy he won't eat it. So stressful, he won't eat mashes potatoes but he'll eat oatmeal 🤦

What's his favorite dinner food @rozrod

They only thing he faithfully eats is rice, chicken that's not fried, mac and cheese, and soup. And home made fries

I'm still trying to get my 15 month old to try veggies

Try to mix different textures in his foods @rozrod

Try offering small amounts of veggies sometimes I would hire veggies in homemade mash potatoes @marleiismama

@smilingwithmyawesome4kids thank you will do

Please let me know his reaction @rozrod

I found that my son will in fact, eat anything you put in front of him. He doesn't always love it but he at least tries it. I break everything up pretty small, solid veggies, fruits, bread, meats, etc. I found that if I do this he will eat it for sure, also because he likes to feed himself. Plus it ensures that he can chew it better, it also makes me feel better that he may not choke on it as easily (note I always supervise him when he's eating). I am having some trouble getting him to drink anything other than water from a sippy cup. Like if I want to give him his formula or milk in a sippy and not a bottle anymore. I have been trying to transition for a while and it's difficult. (He's turning one on the 19th of this month.)

Thank you for this awesome advice @temp

This is going to be my first kid and so I don't really know much about feeding

I can't get my daughter to eat breakfast she will wake up and won't eat a bit fro. 8 or 9 am till noon. She's 5

My oldest son is 2 and will not eat meat... literally no meats just fruits and veggies

@rozrod sounds like my daughter but add cheese

@c54steele oh yea he eats cheese but not melted -___-
