6 Words I Never Say When Babies are Starting Solid Foods

#463: I know you talk to your baby when they’re eating…and even though they’re more focused on the food than your words, language does matter. In this episode I’m sharing 6 words I no longer use when talking to or about babies who are learning to eat and starting solid foods (and why). Listen to this episode to learn: Which word dietitians say all the time without realizing how it harmful it can be (...even though it’s a medical diagnosis) Which word parents use to describe problematic toddler eating patterns…even though it’s developmentally appropriate Which word I had to scrub from hundreds of baby-led weaning recipes because of social media influencers Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/463 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 Other Episodes Related to this Topic Episode 206 - Stay in Your Lane: Parent & Baby Roles in Infant Feeding with Marsha Dunn Klein OTR/L, MEd, FAOTA Episode 215 - Portion Distortion: Why Aren't There Set Portion Sizes for Baby-Led Weaning? 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?
