Synopsis

The definitive guide to baby-led weaning from the paediatric professionals trusted by millions of parents around the world. Cook for yourself, share with your toddler!

Led by a multidisciplinary team of Board-certified paediatric feeding professionals, Solid Starts has debunked the myth that ‘baby food’ is necessary and transformed the way that millions of parents around the world feed their babies. Now, with their debut book, you can follow their research-backed advice to wean your baby on the food that you eat – with some simple safety modifications.

Introducing solid foods can be both exciting and intimidating, especially for first-time parents but what is more delightful than watching the face of a baby who has been given a taste of something they find delicious?

In this book you will learn:
· How cultivating curiosity and building trust at the table is just as important as the food
· How letting baby grab, hold and eat food on their own can decrease the risk of choking
· How sharing foods you like has nutritional, developmental, and psychological benefits
· Techniques and guidance for each development window, from 4months to early toddlerhood
· The latest evidence on choking, safety, food allergens, nutrition, and infant feeding

Whether you’re new to weaning or you want to try a different approach, Solid Starts for Babies is guaranteed to give you the confidence to share your meals and foster healthy eating habits that will set your baby up for a lifetime of mealtime joy.
