]]> 2176 no 5 Survival Skills for Managing the BLW Mess https://blwpodcast.com/105 #105: If the mess of baby-led weaning feels overwhelming, you are not alone. In this episode, I’m breaking down 5 practical survival skills to help you manage the mess without getting in the way of self-feeding. Listen to this episode to learn: 1.  How to handle the baby-led weaning mess without getting in the way of self-feeding 2. What bibs, mats, bowls, and cleanup strategies actually make mealtimes easier 3. Why a little mess is part of learning how to eat — and how to keep it from overwhelming you Shownotes for this episode can be found here: ⁠https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/105⁠ Links from This Episode: • Bapron Baby bapron bibs are ⁠here⁠. • The “toddler” size says it’s for 6 months to 3 years; I’ve never had babies be able to wear this size after 2 but this is the size you get for infants starting solids • The “preschool” sizes says it’s for age 3+ but again, my kids and families usually transition to this seize around age 2 • The code KATIE10 gets you 10% off everything at ⁠bapronbaby.com⁠  • Bapron Baby splash mats are ⁠here⁠. These are pricier than other splash mats, but definitely worth it. The material is really durable, non-plastic, can rinse in your kitchen sink & reuse and they’re huge, can put under 2 high chairs at a time or use as a picnic blanket. Code KATIE10 works for 10% off at ⁠bapronbaby.com⁠ for these too. • The silicone suction mats and bowls I use are from ezpz. The products I like most for BLw are: • The ⁠ezpz First Foods Set⁠: everything you need to get a safe start to solid food, includes a ⁠Tiny Bowl⁠, 2-pack of Tiny Spoons and the Tiny Cup • The ⁠Mini Bowl⁠ & ⁠Mini Mat⁠. • Everything at ⁠ezpzfun.com⁠ is 10% off with code KATIE10 • The best non-toxic household cleaners I have used are from ⁠Branch Basics⁠. I love that they use the same concentrate to make every product in their lineup. You can get ⁠15% off their starter kits with the code KATIE15⁠ (spend a little more for the premium starter kit with the oxygen boost, it’s AMAZING for getting food stains out of clothes!) • Blog Post: 5 Benefits of Using a Suction Mat or Bowl is ⁠here⁠  • Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: ⁠https://babyledweaning.co/program⁠  and use the code BLWPOD50 to save $50 when you sign up. •  Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: ⁠https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners⁠ 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

These are pricier than other splash mats, but definitely worth it. The material is really durable, non-plastic, can rinse in your kitchen sink & reuse and they’re huge, can put under 2 high chairs at a time or use as a picnic blanket.

Gill shares where she hopes the research will go, how social media has both helped and complicated the conversation around baby-led weaning, and why trust, respect, and shared family meals remain at the heart of the philosophy. We also explore how healthcare providers, therapists, and parents can better support your baby’s ability to self-feed, while rethinking outdated ideas about spoon-feeding, oral skill development, and how babies learn to eat. Listen to this episode to learn: 1.  How parents can step back from controlling feeding and start trusting your baby’s natural ability to self-feed from 6 months on 2. Why Gill Rapley challenges the idea of repeatedly pushing foods until a baby “accepts” them, and how that changes the way we think about starting solid foods 3. What role social media has played in shaping the future of baby-led weaning, for better and for worse, and why Gill chooses not to police online baby-led weaning conversations Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/102 Links from This Episode: • Listen to part 1 of this interview with Gill Rapley in episode 100 “The History of Baby-Led Weaning with its Founding Philosopher Gill Rapley, PhD” (Part 1) here • The original BLW book “Baby-Led Weaning: The Essential Guide” that Gill Rapley co-authored has been completely overhauled and updated for its 10th anniversary edition and is available here  • Her website is rapleyweaning.com. • She spoke at length about the importance of Amy Brown’s research on baby-led weaning.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices #102 In Part 2 of this conversation with Gill Rapley, PhD, the founding philosopher of the baby-led weaning approach, we look ahead at the future of baby-led weaning. Gill shares where she hopes the research will go, how social media has both helped and complicated the conversation around baby-led weaning, and why trust, respect, and shared family meals remain at the heart of the philosophy. We also explore how healthcare providers, therapists, and parents can better support your baby’s ability to self-feed, while rethinking outdated ideas about spoon-feeding, oral skill development, and how babies learn to eat.


Listen to this episode to learn:

1.  How parents can step back from controlling feeding and start trusting your baby’s natural ability to self-feed from 6 months on

2. Why Gill Rapley challenges the idea of repeatedly pushing foods until a baby “accepts” them, and how that changes the way we think about starting solid foods

3. What role social media has played in shaping the future of baby-led weaning, for better and for worse, and why Gill chooses not to police online baby-led weaning conversations

In Part 1 of our interview, Gill shares how baby-led weaning took shape, why waiting until babies are truly ready matters, and what she says to the skeptics who still doubt a baby’s ability to self-feed. Listen to this episode to learn: 1.  How Gill’s work as a UK health visitor led her to a simple insight: many babies aren’t refusing food, they’re resisting being fed 2. Why baby-led weaning challenged the “normal” approach to starting solid foods, and what Gill says to the skeptics 3. How she and Tracey Murkett turned parent questions and real-life feeding observations into Baby-Led Weaning: The Essential Guide This interview is part of a 2-part series with Gill Rapley, PhD. In this episode (100) we cover the history of baby-led weaning with its founding philosopher. In the next interview with Gill (102) we will talk about her ideas for the future of BLW and where she sees the movement going and what she would like to see more of (and less of) when it comes to promoting self-feeding from baby’s first bites.

In this mini training episode, I’ll show you a simple, realistic system for reintroducing familiar foods while you keep moving forward with one new food a day, including my easy plate formula and rotation routine. You’ll leave with a concrete action step you can use at your very next meal to build diet diversity into your feeding plan without overthinking it. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. How to keep moving forward with one new food a day while still reintroducing familiar foods so they actually stick 2. Why “one-and-done” food exposures don’t build diet diversity…and what to do instead (even if your baby spits the first food out!) 3.

]]> 1129 no How to Choose a Safe Seat for Your Baby to Eat with Kirsti Vandraas https://blwpodcast.com/92 #92: Ever wonder why some high chairs seem to “work” for starting solid foods while others leave your baby slumped, feet dangling, and frustrated? In this episode, I’m joined by physiotherapist and ergonomist Kirsti Vandraas to break down what a safe, supportive baby seat should actually do. We cover the key features that matter most for independent eating—like a stable base, an adjustable footrest, and a setup that lets your baby move their arms freely. Kirsti also explains why high chair designs and safety standards can vary between countries, and what parents can do to create a safer, more comfortable eating setup at home. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why high chair expectations differ in the U.S. vs. Europe, and how that shapes designs that bring your baby right up to the table for family meals (often without a tray). 2. How straps and restrictive setups can get in the way of functional movement at meals—and when kids are developmentally ready for more freedom in their seat. 3. Why a truly adjustable footrest matters for stability and torso control, supporting an upright “ready-to-eat” posture from your baby’s first bites.

]]> 2108 no Pantry Planning for Baby-Led Weaning https://blwpodcast.com/91 #91: Starting solid foods doesn’t mean buying special baby food, or adding weird ingredients to your shopping list. In this episode, I’m showing you how to use pantry staples you already have to support baby-led weaning. You’ll learn what to look for on labels, which shelf-stable foods actually work for babies, and how pantry planning can make offering new foods feel less overwhelming and more realistic. If starting solid foods feels expensive, confusing, or stressful, this episode will help you simplify and feel confident moving forward. Listen to this episode to learn: • Why you don’t need a separate “baby pantry” to start solid foods…and how to use shelf-stable foods you already have to support baby-led weaning • What to look for on food labels so you can quickly choose pantry foods that are low in sodium, free from added sugar, and appropriate for your baby • How pantry planning makes starting solid foods less overwhelming and helps you consistently offer a wider variety of foods with confidence Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/91 Links from This Episode: • Grab your free copy of the Baby-Led Weaning Pantry Planning guide by clicking here. • Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: https://babyledweaning.co/program and save $50 when you sign up using the code BLWPOD50 • Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners Other Episodes Related to This Topic: • Episode 5 - The Purees for a Few Days™ Approach to Starting Solid Foods with Baby-Led Weaning: a Feeding Guide • Episode 75 - 10 Safe Canned Foods for Baby-Led Weaning: What to Buy (and What to Avoid)  • Episode 89 - Freezer Aisle Finds for Baby-Led Weaning 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

]]> 1078 no A Big Sister’s Perspective on Picky Eating with Molly Ferraro https://blwpodcast.com/90 #90: If you’re starting solid foods with your baby and feeding an older child who’s more selective, this episode is for you. In this throwback conversation, I’m joined by my oldest daughter Molly, who was six years old at the time of this recording (and is now eleven). As the big sister to six younger siblings who learned to eat using baby-led weaning, Molly had a front-row seat to what it looks like when babies are allowed to feed themselves, while older kids are still figuring out their own relationship with food. We talk about why baby-led weaning doesn’t promise to prevent picky eating (but can help make it less intense) and share practical ways to involve older siblings in the kitchen and at the table when your baby is learning how to eat. This episode is especially helpful if you’re worried about “messing it up again” with your baby or wondering how to manage different eating stages under the same roof. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why baby-led weaning doesn’t prevent picky eating—but can make it less intense and easier to manage 2. How to involve older siblings in the kitchen and at the table when your baby is starting solid foods 3.

]]> 1410 no Writing Your Family's Food Story with Chef Julia Nordgren, MD https://blwpodcast.com/88 #88: Many parents come into starting solid foods carrying their own food baggage harboring worries about picky eating, pressure at the table, or repeating patterns from their own childhood. It’s easy to fear projecting those concerns onto your baby before they’ve even taken their first bites. In this episode, pediatrician and trained chef Dr. Julia Nordgren shares how to write your family’s food story from a blank slate. We talk about reducing pressure, focusing on exposure over perfection, involving kids with food at every age, and building a positive, confident relationship with eating from the very beginning. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Learn how to start solid foods with a blank slate, even if you’re worried about picky eating or repeating unhealthy food patterns from your own childhood. 2. Get practical, pressure-free strategies for building a positive relationship with food from your baby’s first bites through the toddler years. 3.

In this episode, I’m getting personal and sharing 7 baby-led weaning mistakes I made when my quadruplets first started eating real food. Looking back at old photos and videos, I cringe…but my goal is to help you avoid the common (and totally preventable) missteps that can make starting solid foods more stressful or less safe than it needs to be. You’ll hear what I got wrong, why it matters, and what I’d do differently now, so you can skip these mistakes, feel more confident, and focus on helping your baby safely learn how to eat. And if you’ve already made some of these same mistakes? No guilt. Starting solid foods is a learning process for parents too. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why some of the most common baby-led weaning mistakes feel safer in the moment but can actually make starting solid foods harder or less safe for your baby. 2. What I would do differently now when it comes to food size, seating, cups, and managing expectations in the early weeks of starting solid foods. 3. How to course-correct if you’ve already made these same mistakes so your baby can keep building safe, confident eating skills.

]]> 1009 no How First Foods Shape Your Baby's Jaw, Airway and Sleep Habits with Kevin Boyd, DDS, MS https://www.blwpodcast.com/86 #86: The real foods your baby learns to eat don’t just provide nutrition, they also help build the jaw, shape the airway, and influence how your baby breathes and sleeps. When babies learn to chew real, safe foods instead of relying only on soft purées, they’re doing important developmental work with their mouths that supports healthy jaw and facial growth. In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Kevin Boyd, DDS, MS, a board-certified pediatric dentist with a background in human nutrition who specializes in airway-focused dentistry. We talk about how early feeding experiences influence jaw and airway development, why food texture matters when starting solid foods, and how these ideas align with baby-led weaning. You’ll learn what to watch for as early signs of airway or jaw development concerns, what evolutionary data tells us about how babies were meant to learn to eat, and simple ways to support healthy oral development from the very beginning. If you’re starting solid foods and want to understand how feeding impacts more than just nutrition, this episode offers a whole new perspective on first foods. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. How chewing real, safe foods actually does for your baby’s jaw and airway development and why this matters far beyond nutrition 2. Why the textures your baby is exposed to when starting solid foods can influence breathing patterns, sleep quality, and long-term oral health 3.

]]> 2780 no Sardines: How to Offer Sardines Safely to Babies https://blwpodcast.com/85 #85: Sardines are one of the best baby foods out there. You might personally not like sardines...a lot of people don’t, but don’t discount sardines for baby-led weaning. Sardines are packed with nutrition, they represent unique taste and texture opportunities for your baby, plus sardines are an easy way to introduce your baby to one of the potentially allergenic food categories: fish. I’m going to make a sardine lover out of you in this episode! Join me as I walk you through the best ways to select and serve sardines to your baby safely. I’m also sharing some of the exact types of canned sardines you can get for your baby and additional baby-led weaning recipes for safely feeding your baby fish, including sardines!  Listen to this episode to learn: 1. WHY sardines are a nutrition powerhouse and how they contain 2 specific nutrients that you can’t get almost anywhere else in the diet 2. HOW to select sardines because there are a lot of options on the shelves at your grocery store, but just a few of them really are appropriate for baby-led weaning 3. HOW to offer baby sardines: do you add extra oil, serve in marinara sauce, spread on low sodium sauce. And what about eating the bones and the skin? Spoiler alert: you can!

]]> 1137 no Postpartum Core and Pelvic Floor: Healing Your Body After a Baby with Marcy Crouch, DPT https://blwpodcast.com/82 #82: Many moms expect their bodies to “bounce back” after having a baby…but months later, odds are they’re still dealing with leaking, pressure, weakness, or discomfort and wondering if this is just how it’s going to be forever? In this episode, I’m joined by Marcy Crouch, DPT, a board-certified women’s health physical therapist and founder of The Down There Doc, to break down what postpartum core and pelvic floor recovery really looks like. We talk about what’s normal, what’s not, and how moms, including those thinking about future pregnancies can start healing their bodies with confidence, even if they’re six months or more postpartum. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. What postpartum core and pelvic floor symptoms are common at six months after having a baby, and which ones are not something you should ignore. 2. How everyday tasks like feeding, lifting, and carrying your baby can affect your pelvic floor…and simple ways to reduce strain. 3. Why addressing pelvic floor health now can help you feel stronger, more comfortable, and better prepared for future pregnancies.

In this episode, I’m joined by Stephanie Cohen, MA, CCC-SLP, CLC, a speech-language pathologist, feeding therapist, and certified lactation counselor who breaks down the fascinating connection between eating and talking in babies.

Whether your baby is just starting solid foods or already exploring tons of tastes and textures, this conversation will help you understand how feeding and talking go hand in hand. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. What early feeding milestones - like mouthing and chewing - have to do with your baby’s speech development 2.

]]> 1672 no Baby Behavior at Mealtimes: What the Science Says with Tina Payne Bryson, PhD https://blwpodcast.com/74 #74: What is your baby’s behavior at mealtime telling you? Is it possible to spoil a baby by feeding him too much? Can babies even exhibit “bad” behavior? In this episode author, child development and parenting specialist Tina Payne Bryson, PhD is joining me to break it ALL down when it comes to your baby’s behavior at mealtimes - diving DEEP into what the science says! Tina is the co-author of well-known parenting books such as The Whole-Brain Child and No Drama Discipline (...aka the BIBLE when my quadruplets were toddlers and I had NO idea how to compassionately discipline!) I love Tina’s science-based approach to tackling topics and she’s covering a TON of baby behavior in her new book The Bottom Line For Baby. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why it’s basically impossible to spoil your baby...so don’t worry that your doting or your preferred method for starting solid foods is going to spoil your baby. It won’t! 2. How to connect and redirect when our babies are playing with or dropping food. Plus Tina also covers how these behaviors change during different stages of infancy. 3. How baby-led weaning helps babies develop “interception” - or the idea of what’s going on internally...so they’re learning how to recognize & respond to their hunger cues.

They ignore what you offer, barely taste anything, and you start worrying about nutrition, iron, and whether something might be wrong. This slow start is one of the most stressful parts of offering solid foods. The good news is that most babies take time to learn how to eat, and early disinterest is usually completely normal.

]]> 1167 no How to Create a Pressure-Free Feeding Environment with Jessica Setnick, MS, RD, CEDRD-S https://blwpodcast.com/72 #72: Pressuring babies to eat more and pressuring babies to eat less can both lead to problematic outcomes when babies are learning to eat. But starting solids is a STRESSFUL time for many parents and caregivers, and sometimes without even realizing it we can be creating a feeding environment that is so high pressure both you AND your baby begin to dread mealtime. In this podcast episode Jessica Setnick, MS, RD, CEDRD-S is talking us through all sorts of tips for creating a pressure-free feeding environment. Jessica is a world renowned eating disorder dietitian who has also worked extensively in pediatrics with children who have feeding disorders.

]]> 1357 no The Evidence Behind Baby-Led Weaning with Amy Brown, PhD https://blwpodcast.com/70 #70: There is a real and credible body of emerging evidence that supports a baby-led approach to feeding. In this episode baby-led weaning expert, author, researcher and Professor Amy Brown is joining us to help break down the evidence behind baby-led weaning. Dr. Brown is the author of the book “Why Starting Solids Matters” and numerous research publications exploring the safety and efficacy of a baby-led approach to feeding. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why it’s kind of even ridiculous that we have to PROVE that babies can feed themselves since prior to the advent of commercial baby food, that’s all babies for generations have been DOING! (...but also, Amy’s doing the research, so SHE is allowed to call it ridiculous :) 2. How there’s no evidence to support all of the things opponents of BLW sometimes claim: it does NOT increase choking risk, BLW babies do NOT have growth faltering, they do NOT have nutrient deficits...and a ton more info about what the research DOES show as benefits including responsive feeding outcomes, family bonding and self-pacing intake. 3. Differences in the US vs. UK when it comes to advertising of baby foods, infant formula and toddler or “follow-on” formulas as they’re called in the UK. And why parents and caregivers would be better served to totally bypass the commercial infant food aisle at their local stores, no matter WHERE you live!

In this episode baby-led weaning expert, author, researcher and Professor Amy Brown is joining us to help break down the evidence behind baby-led weaning. Dr. Brown is the author of the book “Why Starting Solids Matters” and numerous research publications exploring the safety and efficacy of a baby-led approach to feeding. #70: There is a real and credible body of emerging evidence that supports a baby-led approach to feeding.

Dr. Brown is the author of the book “Why Starting Solids Matters” and numerous research publications exploring the safety and efficacy of a baby-led approach to feeding. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why it’s kind of even ridiculous that we have to PROVE that babies can feed themselves since prior to the advent of commercial baby food, that’s all babies for generations have been DOING! (...but also, Amy’s doing the research, so SHE is allowed to call it ridiculous :) 2. How there’s no evidence to support all of the things opponents of BLW sometimes claim: it does NOT increase choking risk, BLW babies do NOT have growth faltering, they do NOT have nutrient deficits...and a ton more info about what the research DOES show as benefits including responsive feeding outcomes, family bonding and self-pacing intake. 3. Differences in the US vs. UK when it comes to advertising of baby foods, infant formula and toddler or “follow-on” formulas as they’re called in the UK. And why parents and caregivers would be better served to totally bypass the commercial infant food aisle at their local stores, no matter WHERE you live!

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Robert Lustig, one of the world’s leading experts on sugar and metabolism, to uncover the hidden ways sugar sneaks into baby foods and what parents can do to keep it out. If you’ve ever wondered how to protect your baby from added sugar and help them build a lifetime of positive food preferences, this conversation will open your eyes to what’s really going on in our food supply—and what you can do about it. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. How to spot hidden sugars in common baby foods, pouches and yogurts - and then which real food alternatives you can swap in instead. 2. Why Dr. Lustig believes pureeing vegetables for your baby does not convey the same health beliefs as eating the intact versions of these foods 3.

]]> 1969 no Behind the QR Code: How Baby Food Companies Are (and Aren’t) Complying with Toxin Testing Laws with @consumerreports Jessica D'Argenio Waller https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/66 #66: How are parents supposed to navigate picking baby foods that contain the least amount of harmful toxins if food companies don’t disclose that info? A new California law, AB 899, requires baby food companies to test for toxic elements like lead and arsenic—and to post those results online. But when Consumer Reports writer and nutritionist Jessica D’Argenio Waller investigated 39 popular baby food brands, she found that some are making it nearly impossible for parents to access that information. In this episode Jessica joins me to explain what AB899 means for parents everywhere (...not just in California), which companies are stepping up with true transparency and why finding out what’s really in your baby’s food shouldn’t require a scavenger hunt. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. What California’s new baby food transparency law requires…and why it matters even if you don’t live in California 2.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices #66: How are parents supposed to navigate picking baby foods that contain the least amount of harmful toxins if food companies don’t disclose that info? A new California law, AB 899, requires baby food companies to test for toxic elements like lead and arsenic—and to post those results online. But when Consumer Reports writer and nutritionist Jessica D’Argenio Waller investigated 39 popular baby food brands, she found that some are making it nearly impossible for parents to access that information. In this episode Jessica joins me to explain what AB899 means for parents everywhere (...not just in California), which companies are stepping up with true transparency and why finding out what’s really in your baby’s food shouldn’t require a scavenger hunt.

Listen to this episode to learn:

1. What California’s new baby food transparency law requires…and why it matters even if you don’t live in California

2. How Consumer Reports investigated the 39 baby food brands they studied…and which ones you probably won’t be buying anymore

3. Why you can’t totally prevent toxic element exposure for your baby (even if you don’t buy baby food), but how you can minimize risk if you’re doing baby-led weaning

]]> 1387 no Why Sensory Play Matters when Starting Solid Foods with Dawn Winklemann, MS, CCC-SLP https://blwpodcast.com/62 #62: Sensory play doesn’t just mean bins of dried beans or rice (...which are a choking hazard for early eaters). Instead, it’s a powerful tool at the table for your baby. Dawn Winkelmann, MS, CCC-SLP joins me to explore how sensory play supports your baby’s feeding development…and we talk about why letting your baby touch, smell and even play with food helps build feeding skills, reduces severe picky eating and supports overall sensory regulation. Bonus points for using the food you’re already making for baby-led weaning to make this happen! Listen to this episode to learn: 1. How sensory play supports your baby’s feeding development and why it’s easier than you think 2. What words to say besides “good job” when you’re at the table with your baby 3.

]]> 2474 no What do I do if My Baby Has an Allergic Reaction? with Ron Sunog, MD https://blwpodcast.com/58 #58: What should you do if your baby has an allergic reaction to food? In this episode, pediatrician and food allergy expert Dr. Ron Sunog shares clear, practical guidance for parents navigating allergenic food introduction. You’ll learn the signs to watch for of true food allergy vs. a run-of-the-mill contact rash, how to be prepared for allergic reactions (...no, you don’t need to park in the emergency department driveway to introduce your baby to peanut!), and how to get past your fear of allergic reactions so you can safely offer your baby allergenic foods early and often (since it’s the only way you can help lower your baby’s risk of food allergy down the road!) Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Which foods babies are most likely to have allergic reactions to...and what we should be on the lookout for to identify a potential allergic reaction to a new food 2. Why some food reactions go away on their own and which ones require intervention (...and how to know the difference) 3. What risk factors put your baby at high risk for food allergy and what you can do at home to lower your baby’s food allergy risk Shownotes for this episode can be found here: ⁠https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/58 Links from this episode: • Read Dr. Sunog’s Book EAT THE EIGHT BOOK: Preventing Food Allergy with Food & the Imperfect Art of Medicine available on Amazon here • Get 15% off Puffworks Baby Peanut and Almond baby puffs for trying peanut and tree nut protein with the code BLWPOD when you shop here • Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://babyledweaning.co/program⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  and get $50 off when you sign up using the code BLWPOD50 • Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Other episodes related to this topic: • Episode 11 - How to Introduce Allergenic Foods to Your Baby • Episode 380 - Why Doctors STILL Aren't Talking About Introducing Allergenic Foods with Ruchi Gupta, MD, MPH • Episode 468 - Oral Food Challenges: Try Allergenic Foods at Home vs. the Doctor's Office? with @allergykidsdoc David Stukus, MD 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

]]> 1161 Dog Meets Baby: BLW Do's + Don'ts for the Whole (Furry) Family with Alexandra Parry, DVM https://www.babyledweaning.co/56 #56: Sure it’s cute to see a dog licking up the baby’s leftovers...but is that actually a good idea? In this episode veterinarian Alexandra Parry is sharing tons of tips for your whole (furry) family when it comes to mixing dogs with starting solid foods. Dr. Parry is diving deep on all sorts of dog-related “Do’s and Don’ts”, some of which will surprise you. Like maybe you knew grapes were toxic to dogs and they shouldn’t have chocolate…but she goes through the 100 First Foods list with other foods that can be dangerous to dogs too. As a mom of two who is doing baby-led weaning in real time, Dr. Parry understands the desire for parents to have their dogs involved at mealtimes; but as a vet who was also bit in the face by her own dog as a child, she shares some valuable insight about behaviors to avoid in order to protect your baby as they start solid foods while still fostering a good relationship with your dog. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why even well-behaved dog should be kept away from your baby’s face during feeding - plus subtle warning signs that can help prevent dog bites before they happen 2. Which everyday baby foods are dangerous for dogs (hint: it’s more than just chocolate) and how to keep dropped food from becoming a serious health risk for your dog 3. How to include your dog in family life without compromising your baby’s safety at mealtimes - with practical tips from a vet mom doing baby-led weaning in real time!

]]> 2097 no How to Drop a Milk Feed https://blwpodcast.com/55 #55: How do you drop a milk feed? The whole point of weaning is that your baby gradually replaces the nutrition he or she was getting from breastmilk and/or formula and replaces that with the foods they’re learning how to eat. But at some point during the weaning process, we have to be proactive about dropping that first milk feed. In this episode I’m covering some ideas for gradually cutting back on your baby’s milk intake as food intake increases. Do you cut the night feed? The morning milk? And how do we set up a feeding schedule such that milk follows food as we approach your baby’s first birthday? Listen in for all you need to know about dropping milk feeds! Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why your baby’s milk intake at 12 months will look remarkably different in volume and frequency than it did at 6 months 2. How babies learn to recognize and respond to their hunger and fullness cues (...and spoiler alert: it doesn’t happen when they’re full of milk!) 3. Suggested feeding schedule for a 1 year old baby transitioning off of breastmilk/formula and on to cow’s milk with 3 meals, milk after meals and bedtime milk each day.

In this episode, pediatric feeding expert Dawn Winkelmann, MS, CCC-SLP shares practical tips for managing overstuffing, big bites and fast eaters. You’ll learn what’s developmentally appropriate, how to respond in the moment, and when it’s time (and not time) to worry about overstuffing.

Listen to this episode to learn:

1. Why babies overstuff and how to determine if your baby’s overstuffing is actually a problem

2. A simple 3-strip technique to help slow down fast eaters…without resorting to the dreaded “dripping” of food

3. How making a simple swap in preparing finger foods can prevent overstuffing and promote safe swallowing

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Shaina Holman, DDS, PhD, a dentist with a rare specialty in infant tongue-ties and a research background in infant feeding. She runs a multidisciplinary infant feeding clinic in North Carolina, working alongside lactation consultants, SLPs, and infant massage therapists to take a whole-body, team-based approach to diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Shaina explains what tongue- and lip-ties are, how they can impact both milk feeding and solid feeding, and what to look out for if you’re considering - or have already done - a release. As a mom of three who’s done baby-led weaning with her own kids, she brings both clinical and practical insights to this conversation. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. What tongue ties are and why experts don’t always agree on treatment routes 2. How having a tongue tie does - and does not - impact your baby’s ability to breastfeed, bottle-feed and eat solid foods 3.

In this episode, I’m breaking down how to safely serve oatmeal so your baby can self-feed from the start.

Plus, I’ll show you how to keep the self-feeding principles of baby-led weaning, even with puree-textured foods like oatmeal. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why oatmeal is a more preferable starter cereal for babies over rice cereal 2. How iron levels differ in oatmeal types, and why “baby oatmeal” isn’t necessary 3.

]]> 2606 no Shellfish: How to Introduce Your Baby to this Potentially Allergenic Food https://blwpodcast.com/41 #41: Shellfish is one of the Big 8 allergenic foods (...the 8 foods that account for about 90% of food allergy) and even though it is one of the more common pediatric food allergies, it’s the one that I find parents are the most hesitant about introducing to their babies. That may be because we are less inclined to be making shrimp and crab and scallops at home than some of the allergenic foods, but it’s still a category of food we should introduce to baby early and often to help prevent shellfish allergy down the road. In this episode we’re looking at a few easy ways to introduce babies to shellfish. You can do pieces of shrimp or some of the more rubbery mollusks, but I prefer to wait until baby has at least 1 tooth and has tried some trickier textured foods out before diving right into the rubbery pieces of shellfish. Making shrimp into shrimp cakes or patties is a really easy way to offer shellfish in a baby-led weaning form that is easy and safe for babies to self-feed. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Which types of shellfish are considered more vs. less allergenic 2. How to safely prepare 3 types of shellfish (...and rubbery shrimp cocktail is not one of them!) 3. Why your baby is unlikely to react the first time they have shellfish…but pay attention time 2 👀 Shownotes for this episode can be found here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/41 Links from this episode:⁠ • Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://babyledweaning.co/program⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  and get $50 off when you sign up using the code BLWPOD50 • Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Other episodes related to this topic: • Episode 31 - Fish: How to Introduce Your Baby to This Potentially Allergenic Food • Episode 130 - Why Benadryl is Not the Best Idea when Introducing Allergenic Foods with @raisinggoodparents Phil Boucher, MD 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

In this episode, we’re breaking down the safest ways to introduce shrimp, crab, scallops and more to your baby using baby-led weaning methods.

From not being necessary to actually downright dangerous and potentially interfering with baby’s ability to hit feeding and speech milestones, you’re going to be looking at the sippy cup in a whole new skeptical way my friends!

Listen to this episode to learn:

1. How sippy cups were invented by adults, for adults and they’re not developmentally ok for babies

2. Why sippy cups impede feeding and speech milestones…and what to do instead

3. How to help your baby move from the breast or bottle right to an open cup, no sippy cup needed

In today’s episode Amy Peterson, IBCLC is here to teach about paced bottle feeding, a baby-led technique. Amy shares how baby-led bottle feeding works, how to recognize your baby’s feeding cues and simple ways to teach other caregivers this important skill so you’re all on board with your baby leading the way.

How simply changing the position of your baby in your arms and the bottle in your hands can more closely emulate the breastfeeding experience 2.

Why offering a bottle with a nipple full of milk can overwhelm (...and overfeed) your baby and how to do paced and baby-led bottle feeding.

How simply changing the position of your baby in your arms and the bottle in your hands can more closely emulate the breastfeeding experience 2. What to look for as far as hunger and fullness cues go so you don’t accidentally promote overfeeding if you’re using a bottle 3. Why offering a bottle with a nipple full of milk can overwhelm (...and overfeed) your baby and how to do paced and baby-led bottle feeding.

]]> 2485 no Salt: 3 Easy Ways to Minimize Sodium for Your Baby https://blwpodcast.com/33 #33: Worried about salt in your baby’s food? In this episode, I’m sharing 3 easy, practical ways to minimize sodium for your baby without overhauling your entire meal plan. You’ll learn how to spot high-sodium foods on labels, why it’s totally fine to salt your own food after setting aside a safe portion for your baby, and how to add flavor with herbs and spices instead of salt. Minimizing salt doesn’t mean making bland food—it means making smart swaps so your baby can safely enjoy more real foods. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why it’s a good idea to minimize added sodium in your baby’s diet...there are a few reasons but basically we want your baby to learn to taste the flavor of foods, not the salt 2. How much is the maximum amount of added sodium per day babies should have, and whether or not you should be considering the sodium from breastmilk and/or formula 3. 3 easy ways to minimize sodium, including some guidelines on what to look for on the label if you’re considering the sodium content of packaged foods to feed your baby  Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/33 Links from this episode: • ⁠⁠⁠Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: https://babyledweaning.co/program  and get $50 off when you sign up using the code BLWPOD50 • ⁠⁠⁠ Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners Other episodes related to this topic: • ⁠⁠⁠ Episode 75 - Canned Foods that CAN Work for Baby-Led Weaning • ⁠⁠⁠Episode 253 - Sodium Limits for Babies Around the World 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

And if they do need water, when and how is the best way to give babies water?


In this episode we’re diving deep into your baby’s fluid needs. Breastmilk and/or formula meets the majority of baby’s water needs, plus the foods your baby is learning to eat contribute fluid too.


Adding extra water to your baby’s diet can be a problem. In this episode I map out the two primary problems with adding additional water too early…but also show you when you do add water, an easy way to make sure you’re offering your baby enough but not too much water.


Listen to this episode to learn:

1. Why most babies do not need extra water before 6 months…and why you should take it easy on water in the second half of infancy too

2. How breastmilk, formula and the new foods your baby is learning to eat contribute to hydration

3. The safest way to introduce water to your baby when they are ready and how to avoid giving too much

Food refusal can be due to illness, tiredness, your baby’s temperament on that day…but, there is a disease that results in food refusal called Eosinophilic esophagitis or EOE. EOE is a chronic, allergic inflammatory disease of the esophagus that causes damage that makes it difficult and uncomfortable for the baby or toddler to eat which in turn results in poor growth, chronic pain and/or difficulty swallowing. The symptoms of EOE are sometimes confused with reflux and in this episode Dr. Antonella Cianferoni, MD, PhD explains what EOE is…why it sometimes gets confused with REFLUX, how it’s treated as an allergic disease….and I think you’ll be surprised because the treatment and certainly the diagnosis is quite different than the other allergic diseases we’ve covered here on the podcast.

Applesauce Pouch Contamination Update with Helena Bottemiller Evich https://blwpodcast.com/389 #389: Today’s episode is a little different - there’s not a lot of breaking news in the infant feeding world. But if you have been following the news perhaps you’ve heard about the applesauce pouch lead contamination story. I’m recording this on November 29, 2023 at which point now 52 children have reported to have high levels of lead in their blood potentially linked to consuming cinnamon applesauce pouches made in Ecuador that were sold across the U.S. There’s a strong scientific consensus that there is no safe amount of lead, particularly for babies and young children who are especially vulnerable to the neurotoxin. Lead exposure has been linked to various behavior and developmental problems, lowered IQ, and more CDC funds states and cities to conduct routine lead blood-screening for young children. The North Carolina Department of Health & Human Services first noticed four children with high lead levels, and over the course of several weeks they, along with state ag officials, ultimately linked it to the pouches.  🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

I’m recording this on November 29, 2023 at which point now 52 children have reported to have high levels of lead in their blood potentially linked to consuming cinnamon applesauce pouches made in Ecuador that were sold across the U.S. There’s a strong scientific consensus that there is no safe amount of lead, particularly for babies and young children who are especially vulnerable to the neurotoxin. Lead exposure has been linked to various behavior and developmental problems, lowered IQ, and more CDC funds states and cities to conduct routine lead blood-screening for young children. The North Carolina Department of Health & Human Services first noticed four children with high lead levels, and over the course of several weeks they, along with state ag officials, ultimately linked it to the pouches.  🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

]]> 1713 no Working Parents: Weekend Routine for Trying New Foods https://blwpodcast.com/353 #353: What if you don’t have time to try new foods with your baby during the week? In this episode I’m sharing a weekend routine for working parents who are doing baby-led weaning.

In this interview we chat about some of the different nutrients you’ve probably heard of, things like iron and vitamin D and EPA and DHA and the role they play in your baby’s still developing brain.  One thing I learned from this interview is that humans are the only primates who have FAT INFANTS and the role that iron has in brain development as it pertains to the white matter in our brains…I think Dr. Wood has such a wonderful way of synthesizing his very meticulous research into actionable steps that you can use as you’re selecting the foods that you choose - or choose not - to include in your baby’s weaning diet.

Food Protein Induced Allergic Proctocolitis (FPIAP) with Marion Groetch, MS, RDN https://blwpodcast.com/286 #286: Can babies be intolerant to dairy foods and cow’s milk protein?

WIC is the US Department of Agriculture’s Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children, a program that is designed to offer nutritious foods and nutrition education to income-eligible pregnant, breastfeeding and non-breastfeeding postpartum women, and to infants and children up to the age of five.  In this episode, I had the opportunity to interview the National WIC Association’s Senior Manager of Public Health, Darlena Birch, MBA, RDN who talks about the proposed changes underway regarding the package of food provided to WIC participants. Darlena focuses on explaining the recommendations to reduce the amount of jarred infant food and replace it with an increased amount of fresh fruits and vegetables which would be a great opportunity for participants to offer their babies a greater variety of foods.   Show notes with all the links mentioned in this episode are here: https://blwpodcast.com/220   🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

This is a two-part interview series with the co-authors of the book ‘How to Raise an Intuitive Eater: Raising the Next Generation with Food and Body Confidence’. In this episode co-author and registered dietitian Sumner Brooks, MPH, RDN, CEDRD defines what intuitive eating is and how infants are naturally born as intuitive eaters. She also discusses the importance of allowing our babies to develop their curiosity for trying new foods through feeling, touching, and experiencing food without the need to “push” them to do so.

]]> 2252 no 12 Month Old Babies: Sample BLW Feeding Schedule https://blwpodcast.com/191 #191 How much food should a 1-year-old baby eat? Much of baby-led weaning is “practicing” for where we want baby to be when he or she turns 12 months, but what feeding milestones and accomplishments do we want to achieve by the time baby turns 1? In this episode we’re exploring sample BLW feeding schedules for babies at 12 months of age.    Listen to this episode to learn: 1. What feeding milestones we want baby to have accomplished by 12 months of age…and what to do if you’re not quite there yet 2. How baby’s rate of growth slows close to the 1 year mark and why you shouldn’t be surprised if your baby starts eating a little less 3. Why snacks and too much milk are the primary saboteurs of the toddler diet…and what you can do to combat them! Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/191 Links from this episode: • Ezpz is the company that makes baby and toddler feeding gear. When baby turns 12 months it’s time to size up to their Mini line: the Mini Utensils (contains a fork, no fork milestone before 12 months of age) and the Mini Cup (bigger size for toddlers compared to their baby Tiny Cup).

]]> 1327 no Fostering Food Neutrality from Baby's First Bites with @raisingbodypositivekids Riley Peterson, RD https://blwpodcast.com/174 #174: Do you ever catch yourself saying negative things about food at mealtime even when you don’t realize you’re doing it? Our babies and kids are watching and listening and our words are shaping their relationship with food even from their first bites. In this episode I’m interviewing dietitian and body positive coach Riley Peterson from @raisingbodypositive kids about how we can create a more food neutral household. Using this positive language and avoiding certain words about food can go a long way in helping to avoid the charged associations with foods that many children are exposed to very early in life. You CAN create a food neutral household in YOUR house and it can start as early as when your baby is beginning solid foods with baby-led weaning.  Listen to this episode to learn: Food Neutrality: what it is and how we can make a food neutral household  Language: words to use and not use when describing food for your baby  Body image: how our words can impact our children’s perceptions of themselves Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/174 Links from This Episode: Follow Riley on Instagram @bodypositivekids Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: https://babyledweaning.co/program   Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

I had no idea until my guest Andrea Olson from @godiaperfree came on the podcast to educate us about Elimination Communication (EC). EC is a gentle, non-coercive way to respond to a baby’s natural hygiene needs...and Andrea is the diaper free GURU here to teach us how and why! Just like babies have the desire and ability to feed themselves solid food when the time is right, babies are instinctual when it comes to pottying. Andrea argues that pottying your baby can make baby-raising cleaner, easier, MUCH more connected to you plus it’s better for the environment. If you think a self-feeding baby sounds exciting, I think you’ll love hearing about your self-pottying baby’s potential too!

Baby-led weaning is one of the VERY FEW things that appeals to a second-time mom...because oftentimes you’re working with a picky eater toddlers and you’d like to avoid that with your current baby. Desiree Fortin was in the exact same boat: she did not do BLW with her triplets...heck, she didn’t even KNOW what baby-led weaning was. But when it came time for her daughter Cambria to start solid foods, she started hearing about baby-led weaning and decided to give it a whirl. Inside of this episode Desiree is dishing on the biggest things that freaked her out when Cambria started baby-led weaning: knowing the difference between gagging and choking and how to introduce allergenic foods because they have a family member with food allergies. If you’re on the fence about trying BLW for your baby...or if you’re worried you’re too late to start baby-led weaning, come hear Desiree’s story and her ENTHUSIASM for BLW that just oozes through the microphone! She’s on Instagram @theperfectmom & you’ll love her down-to-earth take on figuring out BLW the second time around (plus her inspiring message about why we are ALL the perfect moms for our kids!)  Listen to this episode to learn: Why she didn’t do BLW with her triplet kiddos and how that experience of traditional spoon-feeding inspired her to take the plunge to do baby-led weaning with her current baby Cambria When she works prepping food for Cambria into her schedule with 3 super-active 5-year-old triplets...and how BLW is actually getting THEM to eat more foods too! How SEEING her baby take to self-feeding really encouraged her to keep with baby-led weaning, even with a baby who has suspected dairy allergy...and why she’s not scared to try the other allergenic foods too Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/156 Links from This Episode: TRY the peanut butter puffs for babies from PUFFWORKS - these are my preferred way to introduce peanut protein to baby: they’re the softest PB puffs on the market plus they have no added sugar and just a smidge of salt, which is ideal for babies. You can get 20% off everything at puffworks.com with code 20BABYLED.

And how do I know if my baby needs feeding therapy? Even the phrase “feeding therapy” strikes fear into the hearts of parents and caregivers…but feeding therapy is not a bad thing! In this episode I’m interviewing baby-led weaning expert and feeding therapist Dawn Winkelmann, MS, CCC-SLP to explore feeding therapy for infants. Dawn and I co-teach a number of baby-led weaning programs together, but in this interview we’re exploring feeding therapy for babies. What are the signs of feeding disorders? Is my baby’s feeding issue normal or would we benefit from feeding therapy? Dawn is also discussing the different types of feeding therapy and why some of her clients only need a few sessions before getting back on track with baby-led weaning. Listen to this episode to learn: What sort of feeding issues warrant a referral to a feeding therapist...and what exactly does a feeding therapist do in a typical session with your baby? How does feeding therapy help babies who are struggling with the transition to solid foods get back on track to meeting their nutrition and developmental milestones?

In this episode I’m joined by pediatric swallowing expert and speech language pathologist Dawn Winkelmann, MS, CCC-SLP to talk about why your baby does not need to suck puree food out of a pouch. Ms Dawn and I are breaking down the limitations of pouches from cost, developmental and nutrition standpoints. While pouches are certainly convenient, their persistent use can actually inhibit your baby’s ability to achieve certain growth, nutrition and developmental milestones. Listen to this episode to learn: Why we want babies to transition past purees when they’re learning how to eat...and what a baby stuck on purees  Why pouches promote suckling (an immature swallowing pattern) at the very time we want them to develop a mature pattern (chewing and swallowing) Why pouches aren’t as healthy as they purport to be and why their persistent use can actually inhibit your baby’s ability to achieve their growth, developmental and nutrition milestones.

Modi, MD https://www.blwpodcast.com/148 #148: Can babies with cleft lip, cleft palate or cleft lip and palate successfully do baby-led weaning? July is National Cleft and Craniofacial Awareness month and in this episode I’m joined by Vikash K. Modi, MD. Dr. Modi is a Pediatric Otorhinolaryngologist and Co-Director of the Cornell Cleft & Craniofacial Program. He’s explaining the difference between cleft lip and cleft palate and why cleft lip babies will have no difficulty with baby-led weaning and starting solids. For babies with cleft palates, there may be more challenges but Dr. Modi shares tips for promoting self-feeding success in these babies, even though the transition to solid foods occurs usually when the baby is awaiting cleft palate repair surgery. We also cover drinking for babies with cleft lips and cleft palates and how sippy cup and straw cups are not indicated for cleft palate but why open cup working will work. If you’ve struggled with feeding your baby breastmilk or formula because of cleft anomalies, please know that things WILL get easier when you make the transition to solid foods.

]]> 1070 no Setting Your Baby's Sleep Schedule when Starting Solids with @babysleepdr Aubrie DeBear, PsyD https://blwpodcast.com/146 #146: Should your baby be sleeping through the night before you start solid foods? And how does a baby's sleep schedule adjust when you begin feeding real food? Sleep is SO important for babies (...and by extension, their parents!) but what comes first: setting your baby’s sleep schedule or starting the transition to solid foods? In this episode I’m joined by Aubrie DeBear from @babysleepdr. Aubrie is a sleep consultant with a doctorate in psychology and she’s answering all of your questions about setting your baby’s sleep schedule when making the transition to solid foods. There are so many myths about babies sleeping and starting solids and Aubrie is going to help put them to rest! If you’ve ever wondered about how long to wait after feeding your baby before putting your baby to bed or what types of foods to avoid later in the day (or does it really matter), Aubrie is the sleep consultant you need in your life! Listen to this episode to learn: Why is it ideal to wait until your baby is closer to 6 months to start a sleep training program (...and how that overlaps with the exact time when you’re starting solid foods too!) How the concept of “sleeping through the night” is a misconception. We as adults don’t even sleep through the night...but when your baby does wake up, how can you help the baby independently fall BACK to sleep so they don’t need you to make this happen!

And how does baby’s sleep schedule adjust when you begin feeding real food? Sleep is SO important for babies (...and by extension, their parents!) but what comes... #146: Should your baby be sleeping through the night before you start solid foods? And how does a baby's sleep schedule adjust when you begin feeding real food? Sleep is SO important for babies (...and by extension, their parents!) but what comes first: setting your baby’s sleep schedule or starting the transition to solid foods? In this episode I’m joined by Aubrie DeBear from @babysleepdr. Aubrie is a sleep consultant with a doctorate in psychology and she’s answering all of your questions about setting your baby’s sleep schedule when making the transition to solid foods. There are so many myths about babies sleeping and starting solids and Aubrie is going to help put them to rest! If you’ve ever wondered about how long to wait after feeding your baby before putting your baby to bed or what types of foods to avoid later in the day (or does it really matter), Aubrie is the sleep consultant you need in your life! Listen to this episode to learn: Why is it ideal to wait until your baby is closer to 6 months to start a sleep training program (...and how that overlaps with the exact time when you’re starting solid foods too!) How the concept of “sleeping through the night” is a misconception. We as adults don’t even sleep through the night...but when your baby does wake up, how can you help the baby independently fall BACK to sleep so they don’t need you to make this happen!

Well, July 1 is right at the 6 month mark in the calendar year. If your baby was born January 1, on July 1 your baby would be 6 months of age. In this episode Gill Rapley is going to explain the other reliable signs of readiness to eat that your baby should be demonstrating, but with BLW day we’re driving awareness to the importance of waiting until the 6 month mark to start solid foods. We’re also chatting about the history of introducing solid foods and why historically doctors and health professionals have recommended starting before 6 months of age.

Listen to this episode to learn: The evolution over time regarding the age at which to start solid foods for babies. At one point babies as young as 6 WEEKS of age were being fed solids (and we cover why this was a horrible idea and what the research now shows us about a safe age to start solid foods!) Why Western food culture does not historically celebrate this important transition to solid foods during infancy, but how BLW Day can raise awareness about safety and appropriate introduction of first foods beyond breastmilk and/or commercial infant formula How to identify the reliable signs of readiness to feed.

What if you’re worried about growth or brain development or immunity, do these products make toddlers healthier? The answer is no, you don’t need to be buying these formula products and I’m breaking down every reason why. In this episode we’re looking at toddler milks, the fastest growing sector of the US formula market...and for good reason. The marketing behind these products is INSANE and you’ll be amazed at how brazen the formula companies are in pushing these products (that your toddler does not need!) Listen to this episode to learn:  What are they and how are they different from infant formula? What ingredients are in toddler formulas and why shouldn’t children have them? But if my toddler isn’t eating great, aren’t these just like extra nutrition insurance?

The answer is no, you don’t need to be buying these formula products and I’m breaking down every reason why. In this episode we’re looking at toddler milks, the fastest growing sector of the US formula market...and for good reason. The marketing behind these products is INSANE and you’ll be amazed at how brazen the formula companies are in pushing these products (that your toddler does not need!) Listen to this episode to learn:  What are they and how are they different from infant formula? What ingredients are in toddler formulas and why shouldn’t children have them? But if my toddler isn’t eating great, aren’t these just like extra nutrition insurance? What SHOULD 1 year olds be drinking (and HOW should they be drinking)?  Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/135 Links from This Episode: My favorite open cup for BLW: the Tiny Cup from ezpz - this is for babies 6-12 months and you can get 10% off with my affiliate discount code KATIE10 and click here to shop the Tiny Cup to start practice open cup drinking as early as 6 months of age Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: https://babyledweaning.co/program   Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners Other Episodes Related to This Topic: Episode 13- Milk Protein: How to Introduce Your Baby to this Potentially Allergenic Food Episode 113 - Transitioning to Cow's Milk: How Do I Do This? 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

Dripping food is our control-freak way of regulating the pace of baby’s eating...and while it may seem harmless (and cleaner!) dripping can actually interfere with your baby’s ability to learn HOW to eat independently and to recognize and respond to their own hunger and fullness cues. In this episode we’re talking about the draw-backs of dripping food piece by piece for baby-led weaning. Learning how to appropriately pre-portion your baby’s food is a better alternative to dripping and here’s how you do it! Listen to this episode to learn: What is dripping and why does it remove baby’s autonomy from the eating process? How do we pre-portion a meal appropriately if there are no hard & fast baby portion sizes for foods?

]]> 1003 no CPR Skills that can Save Your Baby's Life when Choking with Brandon & Caitlyn Doersken https://www.blwpodcast.com/132 #132: What can you do to get ready for starting solid foods before your baby is ready? Take an infant refresher CPR course. Getting your infant CPR skills up to snuff is incredibly important when preparing to start solid foods and baby-led weaning. Choking is a very rare - but real - risk, and knowing CPR can save your baby’s life. In this episode I’m interviewing Brandon Doersken, who along with his wife Caitlyn run an online CPR training institute. I’ve been a huge fan of their courses since COVID forced all learning online and having CPR skills gives you the confidence that you’ll know what to do if your baby does choke on food when starting solid foods. If you’re just getting ready to start solid foods and you have not (yet) taken a refresher infant CPR course, come check out some of the benefits along with ideas on how to implement the safety information you’ll use when you also begin baby-led weaning with your baby. Listen to this episode to learn:  How online CPR can give you the confidence that you’ll know what to do in the event your baby does have a choking incident. Which household items we all have laying around that are actually a big choking risk and we don’t even realize it.

]]> 877 no Why Benadryl is Not the Best Idea when Introducing Allergenic Foods with @raisinggoodparents Phil Boucher, MD https://blwpodcast.com/130 #130: Do you need to have Benadryl at the ready when introducing your baby to solid foods? I’ve always recommended parents discuss with their pediatrician and know their baby’s Benadryl dose in the event they need to use it when introducing allergenic foods. But Dr. Phil Boucher has a much different take. He does NOT recommend using Benadryl and has some very good reasons why he prefers an alternative to have on hand when you’re starting solid foods. In this episode I’m joined by pediatrician Phil Boucher, MD from @raisinggoodparents talking about all things Benadryl. Why do people refer to Baby Benadryl when there’s no such thing? Why is Benadryl so commonly mis-dosed and how can that be dangerous? What’s a better alternative to Benadryl when you’re offering potentially allergenic foods to your baby like eggs, milk and peanut, among others?  If you’ve ever worried about what to do if your baby has an allergic reaction to food, Dr. Boucher has some really practical suggestions that will help ease your mind! Listen to this episode to learn: Why Benadryl is NOT his preferred medication to have on hand in the event your baby has an allergic reaction when trying new foods The alternative that Dr. Boucher recommends (it’s the over-the-counter medication cetirizine, branded Zyrtec as well as other cetirizine generics formulated for children)  What the drawbacks of Benadryl are, including mis-dosing, somnolence (“sleepiness” or “drowsiness”)  Steps you can take to be prepared in the event of an allergic reaction when you’re introducing your baby to new foods Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/130 Links from This Episode: Follow on IG , Follow on FB Join Dr. Boucher’s Raising Good Parents Community FB group here Link to Pediatrician-Developed Parenting Courses including Mighty Sleepers Course, Potty Training for Lazy Parents, & Unpicky Eaters here YouTube channel Raising Good Parents  Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: https://babyledweaning.co/program   Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

In this episode my colleague pediatrician Ron Sunog, MD and I are answering YOUR questions about introducing allergenic foods to your baby.


What if the parent has a food allergy, will the baby inherit it? How much of an allergenic food do you introduce in order for it to “count”? What about feeding babies with peanut allergy peanut oil, how to handle reintroducing cow’s milk foods if baby had cow’s milk intolerance and lots more!


Dr. Sunog & I just launched our brand new food allergy program called EAT THE 8. It’s all about how to safely introduce your baby to the BIG 8 allergenic foods (+ sesame) and we’re also including a 4-week live Q&A component where program members can ask us any allergy related questions if you get stuck introducing these new foods to your baby.


You DON’T need to buy into expensive supplement powder programs to introduce allergenic foods. Babies can learn to eat allergenic foods & we can show you how. Check out EAT THE 8 program at www.foodallergyclass.com & come join us in this FOOD FIRST REVOLUTION!!!

In this episode I’m joined by Whitney English, MS, RD and Alexandra Caspero, MS, RD - two dietitians known collectively as @plantbasedjuniors. Whitney and Alex are sharing their expertise about raising plant-based children, including how families who don’t eat animal products can introduce allergenic foods.  The Big 8 allergenic foods (the 8 foods that account for about 90% of food allergy) include 4 animal foods...and whether or not and how to feed for vegan families can be a stickler. Listen for tips on incorporating iron and other nutrient-rich foods in your baby’s diet, even if you don’t consume animal foods. Whitney and Alex also explain the difference between predominantly plant-based and vegan lifestyles and ways to introduce allergenic foods for babies of both types of diet patterns. Listen to this episode to learn: Why they had second thoughts about doing baby-led weaning initially as plant-based new moms...but how they ultimately overcame their fear and stuck to a plant-based diet for their babies. How vegan and vegetarian families can offer a variety of nutrient and iron-rich foods without relying on meat...and to get babies to actually eat their vegetables! What steps to take if you’re considering adopting a more plant-based lifestyle for your whole family...and some easy starter family meal ideas to begin with!

]]> 1758 no Using an Egg Ladder for Babies with Egg Allergy with Carina Venter, PhD, RD https://blwpodcast.com/124 #124: What if your baby has had an allergic reaction to egg? Is there ever the option that the baby can eat eggs again? Yes. And an egg ladder may help. Carina Venter, noted allergy researcher and dietitian is joining me to talk about using an egg ladder for babies with egg allergy. She is a member of the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Guidelines Group who recently published revised guidelines on the prevention and development of food allergy in infants and young children. In this episode Carina is talking about why ladders are used more frequently outside of the US than in (she also published the first ever ladder for dairy, the MAP and subsequent iMAP) and how to talk to your practitioner if they’ve never heard of an egg ladder but you are interested in using an egg ladder. Be sure to check the shownotes for this episode for all of the research documents and guidelines Carina is mentioning in this episode. It’s a lot. But if your baby has an egg allergy I think you’re really going to appreciate this interview with Carina Venter, PhD, RD. Listen to this episode to learn: The difference between egg allergy and egg intolerance and why egg intolerance isn’t actually even a “thing”. Why if your baby has been given a diagnosis of egg allergy it might be possible to sensitive baby to egg and eventually have your baby consume egg safely in the future How medical care and education about food allergy nutrition differs in countries outside of the US...and how to talk to your pediatric provider if you want to give the egg ladder a go but your doctor doesn’t know what you’re talking about.

I hadn’t either, until I discovered Kabrita.  As part of our series spotlighting female-run feeding companies, in this episode I’m interviewing Simona Irwin, the General Manager of Kabrita USA. Kabrita USA makes gentle goat milk nutrition products for little ones who don’t do well with cow’s milk.

And she’s sharing a bit more about the process of bringing some of their other products to market in her role as GM of Kabrita USA. And if you’re looking for a safe way to feed your baby goat cheese, I absolutely love the Kabrita goat cheese puffs and in our interview I’m picking Simona’s brain about this new product too.

If your baby was born before 40 weeks gestation you might have heard the term “adjusted age”. In this episode we’re analyzing this concept of adjusted or corrected age and determining what it’s telling us about your baby’s readiness to start solid foods. Babies who were born early need additional time to catch up developmentally before they are safe to start solid foods. Learn how to calculate your baby’s adjusted age, how long you need to use this corrected age for and the other signs to look for if you’re analyzing whether or not your premature baby is ready to start the transition to solid foods.

]]> 852 no Why I Built a Better Bib with Bapron Baby Founder Kelsey Larsen https://blwpodcast.com/118 #118: Everybody knows a good bib is essential for starting solid foods. But not all bibs are really the best bets for babies. Kelsey Larsen’s first baby had a lot of sensory issues with standard bibs and that inspired her to create her signature Baprons and start her company Bapron Baby.  Baprons are a pinafore-style bib that tie in the back under your baby’s shoulder blades. They’re a baby-led weaning bib that keeps your baby clean, but don’t restrict your baby’s movement and development like other full-coverage bibs with sleeves do.  Kelsey started her business by designing and sewing the Bapron bibs by hand and selling on Etsy. Now just a few years later she is running a serious operation creating bibs and splash mats that baby-led weaning fans around the world use and love. In this interview Kelsey is sharing a bit about her business journey, what it has been like taking her product to market, how they select the fabrics and patterns and why she decided to do a licensed line with The World of Eric Carle of the Hungry Caterpillar. Listen to this episode to learn: How her mom taught her to make quilts in high school which gave her the skills to design the very first bapron bibs. Why her bibs cost more than other bibs and how her bet on using higher quality plant-based waterproof material in her bibs has paid off (...I have some Bapron bibs that have been used for more than 1,000 meals and they hold up!) The unique design features of her bibs that you might not recognize at first and why she refuses to put sleeves on the bibs despite requests from parents looking for more coverage Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/118 Links from This Episode: The Bapron Baby website carries all of the Bapron Bibs (Toddler size is for 6m-3T and Preschool size is age 3+) and the code KATIE10 works for 10% off at bapronbaby.com Check out the Bapron Baby splash mats for minimizing the mess and reducing food  Follow Bapron Baby on Instagram @bapronbaby  Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: https://babyledweaning.co/program   Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

]]> 932 no Self-Care for You When Your Baby is Starting Solids with Christine Sterling, MD
 https://blwpodcast.com/94 #94: What’s your status with self-care these days? You hear the term “self-care” thrown around a lot in the motherhood and parenting space...but what does it actually mean?  In this episode Christine Sterling, MD from The Sterling Life is joining us to talk about why self-care as a parent is so important. We need to be taking care of ourselves, especially during transition times in your baby’s life...like when you’re starting solids. Dr. Sterling is a board-certified OBGYN dedicated to helping moms navigate pregnancy, postpartum and parenthood. She is a straight-talker and if you’ve brushed the idea of self-care to the side, Dr. Sterling is going to put it back front and center. In our interview Dr. Sterling explains why as parents we tend to look to our children to fulfill areas of our lives where we’re feeling “not enough”. Her techniques will help you use self-care to move you closer to yourself, helping you feel more at peace in your life...while acknowledging that parenting will always be imperfect.

]]> 1581 no HELP! My Baby Has NO Interest in Food at First https://www.blwpodcast.com/73 #73: The first few days, weeks & even months of baby-led weaning can feel BRUTAL. Like your baby isn’t eating a lot and you’re worried they’re not “getting enough” or missing out on iron or what if their growth starts to falter??... Fear not! MOST babies don’t take IMMEDIATELY to food and that’s because they need time to learn HOW to eat. In this episode we’re breaking down WHY your baby is probably not super interested in food at first and WHAT to do (and NOT do when this happens!)  Listen to this episode to learn:  Why you DON’T need to worry if your baby isn’t eating much early on in BLW...it’s not your job! You DO have other jobs & I break those down but worrying about HOW MUCH or even WHETHER your baby is eating, that is not your job! When most babies DO start to experience an uptick in solid food intake and become less reliant on milk for nutrition...and also what you can do if your baby DOESN’T experience this, it may be a quick fix. Why stressing about baby not eating early on in BLW is a pretty big waste of your time and in the larger scheme of things is NOT problematic. Practice makes perfect though, so we’re talking about how to optimize your baby’s success for self-feeding down the road once they DO start taking to self-feeding.

]]> 844 no Sugar and Why Your Baby Should Avoid it with Robert Lustig, MD, MSL https://blwpodcast.com/68 #68: Sure you know your baby doesn’t need sugar. But did you know that added sugars are EVERYWHERE in the commercial food supply, including baby foods?  In this episode I’m joined by Dr. Robert Lustig - the BIG DADDY of sugar research and he’s breaking it DOWN exactly why your baby doesn’t need sugar (...and what you can do to avoid it!) You may know Dr. Lustig from documentary films such as FED UP or SUGAR COATED...or possibly the longest viral video ever, his SUGAR: THE BITTER TRUTH 90 minute treatise on every reason why we’re being tricked into eating sugar and what it’s doing for our bodies. But Dr. Lustig is also doing groundbreaking research on TEXTURES and PALATE DEVELOPMENT and he’s sharing WHY as he puts it, “We have been feeding babies pureed semi solid food for millenia...and they’re still here!” Listen to this episode to learn: Why he believes sugar is the alcohol of the child Why your baby has to see a SAVORY food significantly more times before he or she likes it vs. SWEET foods (...hint: it has to do with taste receptors on your baby’s tongue) Why pureeing vegetables for your baby does not convey the same health benefits as eating the soft, safe intact versions for babies (...hint: it has to do with the shearing of fiber in the blender + removal of the liver protection fiber containing foods provide) The difference between apples, applesauce and apple juice and their impact on you and your baby’s blood sugar Why healthy foods are high in fiber and low in sugar; processed foods are low in fiber and high in sugar...and it’s the processed foods that are killing us!

]]> 2252 no 100 First Foods Graduates https://blwpodcast.com/67 #67: So what’s the big deal about a baby eating 100 foods? Well the research shows us that babies who are exposed to the greatest number of foods, flavors, tastes & textures are MORE likely to be independent eaters and LESS likely to be picky eaters! In 2016 I created the 100 FIRST FOODS approach to starting solid foods with baby-led weaning. I did the 100 FIRST FOODS approach with my baby quadruplets, creating a 5-step feeding framework that helps you introduce 5 new foods per week, 20 foods per month and 100 foods in the first 5 months of your baby eating solid foods. Listen to this episode to learn: Kayla Sherwood - Mom of BG twins William & Adelaide who finished their 100 First Foods at 11.5 months & mom is on IG @kasherwood22 Erin Callaway - Erin is the mom of Sunny who did her 100 First Foods with us and baby brother Rowan is JUST STARTING and will be tackling the same challenge this time too. Family lives in Greece and follow on IG @thecallawayseat Renee Cameron - Renee’s son Elijah did his 100 FIRST FOODS after mom had a stressful pregnancy, stressful transition to solids but she loved and thrived on the structure of this program.  Lauren McClure - Lauren’s daughter Kiera is now 13 months but at 4 months had a surgery for a congenital condition. She found so much support in the 100 FIRST FOODS group and Kiera hit all of her feeding milestones thanks to this program! Mariale Oltra - Mariale is mom to Isabell and had a BLAST helping her try 100 new foods. Mariale was SO helpful to the other parents in our group, always sharing her experiences and how they can help. She’s on IG @marialeoltra. Kelly Anne Tay - Kelly is a mom based in Singapore who I *think* knows every other mom in Singapore…she has SPREAD the 100 FIRST FOODS movement among her peers and her daughter Kate crushed over 100 foods before her first birthday. She’s so glad she doesn’t need to chase Kate around playdates with a spoon trying to force her to eat and Kelly is on IG @paperexploits Gina Giacamoni - Gina has her hands full: 3 kids under 3 and baby 2 did 100 FIRST FOODS and baby 3 is just getting started.

]]> 1488 no Leafy Greens: 5 Easy Ways For Your Baby to Safely Eat Greens https://blwpodcast.com/61 #61: Can babies safely eat dark green leafy vegetables? Absolutely! It’s not safe for babies to eat raw greens or foods like lettuce or uncooked spinach or kale...but there are a number of ways you can safely prepare greens for baby-led weaning. In this episode I’m sharing 5 easy ways to feed your baby dark green leafy vegetables. Greens contain unique flavors for your baby to try plus some valuable nutrients. And while plant based foods with iron (like the type in spinach and other greens) aren’t as easily absorbed by the body as animal foods, they’re still important foods for babies to eat (safely!) Dive into this episode for 5 easy ways your baby can safely learn to eat greens! Listen to this episode to learn: Spinach, kale, collard greens, mustard greens, swiss chard and beet greens 5 recipe ideas shared in this episode: Beet green pesto - you can make this with any green, chop & cook or saute, combine in a blender with lots of olive oil & a little parmesan cheese, add salt for adults later Swiss chard fritters - again works with any green, use ½ cup of chopped cooked green, 1 cup dry cooked grain and 1 egg. Stir to combine and fry in patties in a high smoke point oil like avocado oil. I like the Primal Kitchen avocado oil & use code FERRARO10 for 10% off at checkout here. Collard green egg cups - works with greens, especially spinach but combine lightly fork-scrambled raw eggs, a smidge of cheese, seasoning like sage or rosemary or basil and some cooked chopped green. Spray muffin tins with nonstick spray and cook at 350 degrees F for 15-20 min or until egg is set & cooked through Spinach manicotti - ricotta cheese is a surprisingly low sodium cheese that works well for baby-led weaning. Combine ricotta with eggs and cooked greens or spinach; spoon into pre-cooked manicotti pasta tubes or cooked pasta shells and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 min or until warmed through. Cool before serving to baby. Kale chips - these are for older babies because crunchy foods can be a choking hazard for earlier eaters. Commercial kale chips are too high in sodium for babies but you can make your own kale chips by spraying with olive oil and baking in a 325 degree oven for 15-20 minutes or until slightly crispy Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/61 Links from this episode: Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: https://babyledweaning.co/program  Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?

It’s not safe for babies to eat raw greens or foods like lettuce or uncooked spinach or kale...but there are a number of ways you can safely prepare greens for baby-led weaning.


In this episode I’m sharing 5 easy ways to feed your baby dark green leafy vegetables. Greens contain unique flavors for your baby to try plus some valuable nutrients. And while plant based foods with iron (like the type in spinach and other greens) aren’t as easily absorbed by the body as animal foods, they’re still important foods for babies to eat (safely!)


Dive into this episode for 5 easy ways your baby can safely learn to eat greens!


Listen to this episode to learn:

  • Spinach, kale, collard greens, mustard greens, swiss chard and beet greens
  • 5 recipe ideas shared in this episode:
  • Beet green pesto - you can make this with any green, chop & cook or saute, combine in a blender with lots of olive oil & a little parmesan cheese, add salt for adults later
  • Swiss chard fritters - again works with any green, use ½ cup of chopped cooked green, 1 cup dry cooked grain and 1 egg. Stir to combine and fry in patties in a high smoke point oil like avocado oil. I like the Primal Kitchen avocado oil & use code FERRARO10 for 10% off at checkout here.
  • Collard green egg cups - works with greens, especially spinach but combine lightly fork-scrambled raw eggs, a smidge of cheese, seasoning like sage or rosemary or basil and some cooked chopped green. Spray muffin tins with nonstick spray and cook at 350 degrees F for 15-20 min or until egg is set & cooked through
  • Spinach manicotti - ricotta cheese is a surprisingly low sodium cheese that works well for baby-led weaning. Combine ricotta with eggs and cooked greens or spinach; spoon into pre-cooked manicotti pasta tubes or cooked pasta shells and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 min or until warmed through. Cool before serving to baby.
  • Kale chips - these are for older babies because crunchy foods can be a choking hazard for earlier eaters. Commercial kale chips are too high in sodium for babies but you can make your own kale chips by spraying with olive oil and baking in a 325 degree oven for 15-20 minutes or until slightly crispy

]]> 817 no Car Seat Safety and Feeding Considerations with The Car Seat Lady Alisa Baer, MD https://blwpodcast.com/60 #60: You know how they say, “You don’t know what you don’t know…”? Well, when it comes to infant and child car seat safety, I’m always amazed at how much I did NOT know! In this episode timed to release during CHILD PASSENGER SAFETY WEEK I had the extreme pleasure of interviewing The Car Seat Lady aka Alisa Baer, MD all about car seat safety with a ton of side convo about why we don’t feed babies in the car. Alisa’s mom is the OG Car Seat Lady and along with her mom and her childhood friend Emily, this 3-lady team has done over 50,000 carseat installs. Alisa is also a board certified pediatrician and she PACKED this interview full of really thoughtful, actional tips for how we can improve our child’s car seat experience. There are a lot of self-proclaimed “experts” in the car seat field: Alisa is not one of them. She does car seats, full time, nothing else. She is not sponsored and does not take endorsements from car seat companies. She is a straight shooter and tells it like she sees it, based on an INCREDIBLE amount of research and knowledge from her team’s over 70 years combined experience in the field. If you’re one of those people who doesn’t like to compare a million different options, The Car Seat Lady is going to be right up your alley. Listen to this episode to learn: The 3 most common mistakes she sees parents of babies age 6-12 making when they install and place babies in the car seat When it’s time to transition from an infant seat to a convertible seat and what to look for...not to mention why most other countries besides the US keep their children rear-facing well beyond 2 years of age Why it’s never safe to feed a baby in the car but what you might consider if you do do car snacks for toddlers and older children.

]]> 844 no Dog Meets Baby: BLW Do's + Don'ts For The Whole (Furry) Family with Alexandra Parry, DVM https://blwpodcast.com/56 #56: Oh I know it’s cute to see a dog licking up the baby’s leftovers...but it’s actually not a good idea. In this episode veterinarian Alexandra Parry is sharing tons of tips for your whole (furry) family when it comes to mixing dogs with self-feeding babies. Dr. Parry is diving deep on all sorts of dog-related “Do’s and Don’ts”, some of which will surprise you. Like maybe you knew grapes were toxic to dogs (I didn’t!) but she’s also breaking down by MOST of the food your baby is eating should not end up in your dog’s mouth! As a mom of a baby-led weaning baby herself, Alexandra really understands the desire for parents to get dogs involved at mealtimes. But as someone who was bit in the face by her own dog as a child, Dr. Parry helps us avoid the behaviors that will put either our dog or our baby in harm’s way. Listen to this episode to learn: Why even the “nicest dogs” should never be at face level with babies. Your child’s safety is the most important, but Dr. Parry has great advice for preventing accidents with dogs in the first place. Foods that are known to be toxins to dogs. Obviously a lot of food ends up on the floor, but Dr. Parry is sharing which of these new foods baby is trying can be problematic and harmful for dogs and how to avoid them ending up in your dog’s gut!
