Starting solids can be really exciting, but also a little stressful. What do you do if your baby (or toddler) seems picky? How can you tell if things are going smoothly? What do you do if you think your baby isn't eating well? All those issues and more are covered in this weeks episode!
In this episode I cover:
- Tips and guidelines for picky eaters
- When to be okay with a picky eater (and when to be firm)
- Avoiding pickiness – and avoiding “forcing” food
- Our story of a developmental feeding problem
- How to tell if your baby has feeding problems
- Why a kitchen timer may be the best purchase you make
- Mommy tips to get your baby eating
- How to help your baby gain weight
