I thought it might be interesting, and also hopefully inspirational for those of us who might feel we're making the same things regularly! So, what did your baby - 6m to 18m, any age that still has some milk and might be playing around with weaning - actually eat today?
12mo DD had...
4oz formula when she woke up
A bowl of Shreddies and the rest of the formula (2oz) for breakfast
Some sultanas is mid-morning
Chicken and lentil stew and some tinned mandarin segments for lunch
A considerable amount of Pizza Express pizza crust to keep her distracted while we ate 
- my parents were over and food always seems to go downhill when they are here, plus it did at least keep her amused
4oz milk before her nap
A banana when she woke up
A pile of plain cauliflower and broccoli, a kiwi, and a fromage frais for dinner
Then it will be 6oz of formula before bed
Anyone else wants to share?

What did your baby actually eat today?

Ds, 9 months (10 months next week)
B/f at 7ish
Bowl of shreddies with blue milk at 8
1/2 slice of warburtons raisin& cinnamon loaf for snack before am nap 10ish
4oz bottle
Scrambled egg with 1/4 of white toast for lunch 12.30
B/f after school run so 3.15ish
Small handful of Cheerios to stop him moaning whilst I made tea
1/2 burger bap spread with phili, chunk of cheddar cheese, strips of burger (only ate one strip) for tea. Prob ate around 1/2 with the rest being mushed and strewn around 
. A few spoonfuls of yoghurt for pudding.
Before bed he'll get a 5oz bottle then he'll wake twice in the night 
...bottle on first waking and b/f on second waking.
8mo DS eats like a horse at nursery then eats pretty much nothing with me Yesterday with me he ate:
One teeny tiny end of a spoon of Ready Brek with apple purée. He refused the Weeta-Bix and 1/4 crumpet offered earlier. Remaining Ready Brek went in the bin, dogs got crumpet, I ate Weeta-Bix.
About one sixteenth of a savoury Plum pouch (we were out at a restaurant where he also ate a couple of fingertip-fuls of my guacamole and sour cream). Remainder of pouch went in the bin £1.39 grumblegrumblegrumble
A whole pot of Rachel's Organic My First Yoghurt. Empty pot (thank God) went in the bin.
Quarter of a piece of eggy bread. Dogs ate the other three quarters.
Four BFs slotted in and around there, plus about four overnight.
The end. That's the most food I'll ever see him eat, while nursery comment on what hollow legs he has. I've found weaning such a crushing disappointment because I'm a real foodie and mad keen cook with a baby who is completely disinterested in food.
DS is 4 years old and ate less than most of these so don't worry
He's had
1 (small adult sized) bowl of cheerios with milk
1 slice of toast with butter
Presumably - milk and fruit snack at nursery
Lunch - one quarter of an egg sandwich, two spoonfuls of a yoghurt (it was "watery")
Snack - packet of hula hoops
Dinner - one slice of toast with butter, about four baked beans
One and a half gingerbread men which we baked.
But the other day he ate so much that he was sick all night so who knows what goes through their heads 
Also lack of fruit/veg because I'm overdue a shop
I tried eggy bread and it was pants. No wonder DS was like . Before I went on mat leave I was quite bright and I could cook. Now i'm a blethering sleep deprived fool that can't make eggy bread.
Can i ask about the crumpets and muffins - are these shop bought? don't tell me you're all frigging baking too?
Ds is 16 months old and today he has had
7am bf
830am decent sized bowl of readybrek with mashed banana (ate most of it)
1030am a few rice cakes
1130am ellas fruit puree pouch
1215pm egg mayo sandwich (2 slices of bread) and tomato slices (ate 3/4 of the sandwich and fed me all the tomato slices )
1245pm bf
3pm organix gingerbread man
5pm more rice cakes - need them to keep him occupied while I'm getting changed after his swimming lesson!
6pm small bowl of macaroni cheese with broccoli and chicken, strawberries, yoghurt
745pm bf
Then should sleep through the night
