Introducing Solids
Confused about introducing solids?
You are not alone!
I’m sure you’ll agree, introducing solids comes with challenges. Knowing what to feed your baby, when to start, how much they should be eating and what to look for in terms of allergies and health concerns can be overwhelming.
When it comes to introducing solids, many of the mums I work with feel anxious and second guess themselves about what and how to feed their baby. Others worry if the food they are feeding their baby is giving them the best nutritional start in life, and most mums are overwhelmed by conflicting advice from well-meaning family and friends.
The Essential Guide to Introducing Solids will help you to decide what’s best for your baby and what your next steps will be.
