SLP 141 Baby Led Weaning and First Food

The Sustainable Living Podcast

Emily Gerde jumps into a quick podcast to share her insights on Baby Led Weaning. In a nutshell, baby led weaning is when you start your child on real foods first and you skip the purees.

Every child is different and has different needs so Emily also gives ideas for those who want to start with purees first. She discusses extended breastfeeding, best practices for starting baby on foods, when to start and ways to keep baby safe and healthy.

Whether you have an infant at home or have a friend or family member with a little one, Emily provides insight on the years of research and professional advice given to her by holistic healers and doctors.

Baby led weaning is a great way to ensure your child starts their food journey on a positive note and has a lifelong love of healthy eating.
