In this episode, Jamie starts a new recurring series where a client calls in to talk through a topic - 'Real (Mom) Talk'. Submit your question on our site - https://www.nurturebynaps.com if you’re interested!
Today, Jamie tackles Starting Solids! Often times when there is a LOT of overwhelming information out there about a certain topic…it means there’s no right way, there’s many right ways. You aren’t going to mess this up.
To help get you started…here are some questions / topics that are addressed during the podcast:
- What are the readiness signs for starting solids?
- Purees vs. Solids
- Common myths
- Allergen exposure - how often and when? What time of
day?
- How quickly can allergic reactions come on and at what point in
exposure?
- What’s the right plan for you AND your baby?
- What IS baby led weaning actually? Is it a range of options?
- What’s different about a baby’s gag reflex? Is it a good
thing?
- What does this mean for breastfed babies in terms of iron?
- What is the palmer reflex? What size food is good during
this stage?
- When babies can pinch, how big and soft should the food be?
- Should my nanny / daycare provider take on some meals?
- What does this mean for formula or breastmilk schedule?
- Do I need to wait 3 days between exposures?
- How long until a baby likes something they originally
disliked?
- What’s the best way to plan this into my day?
- When can I feed my baby table foods we are eating already?
