4.5: Introducing Solids & BLW: The Good, The Messy & The Allergy Anxiety


Listen Later

We’re told to start solids as early as 4 months and introduce allergens by 6 months—but no one really tells us how to do it or what to expect (spoiler: it’s a messy ride). This week, we’re joined by Malina from @healthy.mom.healthy.kids—a certified Pediatric Dietitian, single mom of three, and expert in Baby-Led Weaning (BLW) and picky eating.

Malina breaks down different approaches to starting solids, from BLW to purees, plus when and how to introduce allergens without losing your mind. She also shares game-changing tips on managing picky eaters, setting mealtime boundaries with older kids, and shifting the narrative around food—so you can reclaim some sanity at the dinner table.

If feeding your kids feels like a daily battle, this episode will put you at ease and give you the tools to make mealtime fun again. We promise!

This episode is brought to you by Happy Wolf Snacks. Allergen-friendly snacks made with clean, organic ingredients that are are picky eater approved and perfect for lunchboxes or on-the-go snacking. Stored in the fridge to keep them fresh (but good in a lunchbox for up to 3 days), they’re as close to homemade as it gets.
