Episode 34: Starting Solids: Stress Free Baby-Led Weaning & Tackling Picky Eating with Jenny Best, Founder of @solidstarts Starting solids can be so exciting but also so nerve-wrecking as a new parent! Feeding can be just as divisive as sleep these days, and this week Rachael is joined by Jenny Best, the founder of Solid Starts, to talk about the “best” way to begin your little one on solid foods.   Jenny shares her journey of being a mom while building a super successful resource for parents to prevent picky eating and find joy in feeding their children.

She emphasizes the importance of trusting your child and provides tips for easing anxiety when starting solids.  Additionally, Jenny dispels common misconceptions about choking, the difference between toddler selectivity and severe picky eating, and more. You'll hear some strategies for encouraging exploration and problem-solving at mealtime, and finally, Jenny shares her most important advice for new parents.  Jenny is a mom of three on a quest to help parents prevent picky eating and find joy at the table together.

For decades we have been told that babies need to start with pureed foods when they start solids. But what if I told you that these purees might not be the best starting point, and that self-feeding can be the key to developing safe and effective eating habits? In this episode, I sit down with Jenny Best, founder of Solid Starts, a platform dedicated to guiding parents through the introduction of solids to their little ones. With over 3 million followers on Instagram (@solidstarts), she is challenging the old-school notion that babies need a gradual introduction to thicker foods while confronting the fear-based messages from traditional baby food advertising.This episode is packed with insight, history, and empathy. We'll discuss how feeding strategies have evolved from the 1880s to now, and why contemporary wisdom aligns with the developmental readiness of your baby for solids around six to eight months. We'll also debunk common choking myths and encourage you to trust in your baby's natural instincts. So whether you're knee-deep in diapers or just love a good chat about the realities of motherhood, you won't want to miss this.Connect with Jenny:Solid StartsLinks and Resources: Milk storage guideline by the Academy of Breastfeeding MedicineNumNum Baby Spoons affiliate linkFollow @bemybreastfriend on InstagramBemybreastfriend.combemybreastfriend Amazon Storebemybreastfriend YouTubeSponsor: Ceres Chill - 15% off your order with code 'BEMYBREASTFRIEND15'

This week we have a replay of our interview with Jenny Best — the founder of Solid Starts.  Jenny is a baby-led weaning expert and food and farming enthusiast on a mission to make it easier for parents to introduce real food to their babies. Solid Starts was born out of necessity. Solid Starts advocates for an approach that they named #FingerFoodFirst. Based on a method called “baby-led weaning,” FingerFoodFirst involves letting go. Letting go of the impulse to control every spoonful and letting go of the expectation that you should make one meal for your baby and another for everyone else. In this episode Jenny explains the long and short game of child feeding, breaks down baby led weaning, her advice on introducing new foods with children of different ages and how to know if your baby is getting enough food AND MORE...

Did you know that many food allergies can be prevented? Early introduction of potentially allergenic foods, such as peanuts, can actually prevent the development of food allergies. Awesome, right?But how exactly are you supposed to feed a baby peanuts? You aren't - peanuts themselves absolutely are a choking hazard, so you have to use a developmentally appropriate form of a peanut-containing food. That's where it gets tricky.Dr. Katie Marks-Cogan, board-certified pediatric and adult allergist, had the same concerns, so she and her team invented Ready, Set, Food! It's a series of food powders that allows food proteins to be introduced to babies right through their bottles.On this episode, Dr. Hoyt interviews Dr. Marks-Cogan, and these two allergists/moms discuss early allergen introduction and the Shark Tank-awarded and allergist-approved food product that is helping moms and dads get these foods into babies' diets early and often.Note: Dr. Hoyt is NOT a paid spokesperson for Ready, Set, Food! and received no financial compensation for this interview.What's your food allergy question?

I'm a firm believer that a healthy body starts with healthy nutrition, which means eating quality food.   When it comes to plants, that quality starts with the quality and the nutrients in the soil they grow in.  Not all cauliflower is created equally.  In today's Tuesday Terrain talk you'll hear from Amy Sapola, Clinical Pharmacist, Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner, and Director of Farmacy at Farmer Jones Farms on the beauty and the benefits of bringing the farmer onto your team of wellness practitioners.  Amy will open your eyes to the benefits of regenerative farming for the soil that supports it to the plants that are grown there, and ultimately the health of the people who eat from regenerative farms.    Referred to in this episode:  What is Farmacy?  Solid Starts  The Evolution of the Chef's Garden Video  Should I be avoiding oxalates?  Dr. Amy Sapola  Farming for Health Podcast  Farmer Jones Farm  Follow us on Instagram:  @TheBreastCancerRecoveryCoach  @amysapola @farmerjonesfarm @thechefsgarden_ohio

Första avsnittet från två olika länder. Asabea är hemma i Sverige och Opokua är i sitt tillfälliga hem, Portugal. Asabea har slutat amma så amningsavslut är veckans tema. Vi pratar om våra egna upplevelser av att sluta amma och Opo berättar hur hon tänkt denna gång (ca. 13 min 38 sek). Det blir ett samtal om amninssorg, när barnet väljer själv och att det är okej att vilja ha sin kropp ifred. Det leder in på ett samtal om att introducera mat och den otroliga plattformen Solid Starts (ca. 33 min 55 sek). Avslutningsvis ger Asabea några praktiska tips på strategier man kan ha när man vill sluta amma (ca. 40 min 54 sek). Tack att ni lyssnar! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

En este episodio hablo con Alexia Derma - patologa de lenguaje - y Corina Aycinena Marcos - nutricionista - del equipo de Solid Starts, una de las plataformas más importantes del mundo hoy en día sobre nutrición y alimentación infantil. Conversamos sobre la importancia de generar una relación sana con la comida desde que somos niños para evitar comportamientos adversos en la vida adulta como TCA, aversiones hacia la comida o simplemente no comer con placer y gusto, como debería ser. Al enseñarle a los niños a comer de una manera sana (no hablando solo en nutrientes) seguramente la familia también tendrá este cambio de chip.

We talk about mom-guilt, testing new ingredients with your child, and introducing spices in a safe way. Jenny provides recommendations around picky eating and emphasizes that it's okay to have multiple feeding styles.Key Takeaway / Points: Benefits and fears associated with baby-led weaningDealing with family members who aren't on board with the methodTesting new ingredients and spices with your child Recommendations around picky eating Combining multiple feeding stylesWhat my BLW journey has looked like thus farIntroducing Allergens to Babies GuideFirst 100 Days: Daily Meal Plan for Starting SolidsTalking to Family Members About Baby-Led WeaningFollow: Solid StartsInstagram: @solidstartsWebsite: www.solidstarts.comTikTok: @solidstartsFollow me:Instagram: @freckledfoodieWebsite: freckledfoodie.comTikTok: freckledfoodieTwitter: @freckledfoodieYoutube: Cameron Rogers / Freckled FoodiePinterest: Freckled FoodieThis episode was edited by Tim Flanzbaum See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Aleen and Brittany are joined by Jenny Best, founder of Solid Starts, to talk all about introducing solid food to your baby, food safety, and so much more. She starts with some practical tips to avoid choking, including a simple trick for helping your baby learn good habits on their own. Next, Aleen and Brittany ask when you should actually start to introduce solids, and which misconceptions new parents need to unlearn. Jenny explains the kicker, that babies have all the protective mechanisms they need and their bodies are just learning to figure things out. Lastly, she advises that when looking into feeding methods, ones that are extremely rigid should come with a big red flag. She reassures that you do not need to choose one singular approach. There are many right ways to feed your baby, and none should come with a side of stress.

In this first special episode, I explore the philosophy of baby led weaning by sharing my own journey with special help from Jenny Best, the founder of Solid Starts, a platform that teaches us how to introduce real food to our babies.Are you curious about BLW?

Joining Sleep Cues today is Jenny Best, the founder of Solid Starts.  Jenny is a baby-led weaning expert and food and farming enthusiast on a mission to make it easier for parents to introduce real food to their babies. Solid Starts was born out of necessity. Solid Starts advocates for an approach that they named #FingerFoodFirst. Based on a method called “baby-led weaning,” FingerFoodFirst involves letting go. Letting go of the impulse to control every spoonful and letting go of the expectation that you should make one meal for your baby and another for everyone else.  In this episode Jenny explains the long and short game of child feeding, breaks down baby led weaning, her advice on introducing new foods with children of different ages and how to know if your baby is getting enough food AND MORE...

Jenny scoured the internet for helpful information about introducing real food to her 6 month old twins. Her three year old was a picky eater and she wanted to avoid the same situation with her twins. She ended up down the endless google rabbit hole. Why wasn't there a singular resource for parents to reference when introducing solid foods to their kids? Jenny decided to create that resource for parents, one ingredient at a time. Solid Starts help parents feel confident introducing real food to their littles through a finger food first approach.  Parents love having a resource to create a healthy food culture with their families. 

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), childhood obesity has more than doubled in children and quadrupled in adolescents in the past 30 years.    This is an alarming statistic which is why we felt like we had to discuss solutions. We feel that children should receive a good foundation. The choices we make regarding our child's health will affect them throughout their life.    In this episode we cover nursing, ways to get kids excited about healthy eating, preventing insecurities around food and more. As a new parent, (Kelley) and a soon to-be-mother (Emily), we believe that nutrition and physical activity set the stage for a lifetime of health. With a fun approach we hope to educate both kids and parents on the importance of good nutrition.    Emily enters her 2nd trimester of pregnancy [1:22] Kelley introduces Nolan to food [2:45] Stretch n Grow [4:45] Kelley talks about breastfeeding [5:50] Introducing baby foods and their ques [7:15] Why Kelley chooses to breastfeed [8:20] Elvie Breast Pump [11:50] Emily talks about her experience with working with families and their children [13:20] Sugar [14:05] Emily gives helpful tips to get your kids to eat healthy [15:55] Family-style eating [18:10] Preventing insecurities around food [18:45] Let kids make the decision [19:50] Child obesity stats [20:23] Breastfeeding benefits [21:25] Making your plate colorful and using the alphabet to educate about food [23:10] Children are sponges [23:30] Solid Starts on Instagram [24:40]   Follow us on IG: @wellness.unfiltered Follow Kelley: @kelley_bugger Follow Emily: @emilyzwilling
