      • 10-11 Months Old Babies: Sample BLW Schedule

        #189: How often should babies who are 10-11 months old eat solid foods? Should they be allowed to feel some “casual hunger”, do we drop another milk feed? What about transitioning off of the bottle and onto the open cup. In this episode I am joined by TWENTY moms of babies 10-11 months old who are graciously sharing their schedule and what’s going on with their older babies…this is a little bit of a longer episode, but hoping you can learn from some of their shared experiences about feeding babies who are 10-11 months old.


        Listen to this episode to learn:
        1. How phase 3 of baby-led weaning (the 3rd 8 week session) changes for babies who are 10-11 months old and what to expect in the way of intake, scheduling solid foods, dropping milk feeds and moving towards toddlerhood
        2. Why snacks can be a big saboteur of the older infant’s diet and how to be assertive in making between meal milk your baby’s snack so they can be more engaged at mealtime
        3. What to expect as baby nears the 1 year mark: allergenic food trials, open cup practice, continuing to offer variety and trickier textures for older babies

            • Breastmilk Testing: Why Measure the Quality of Your Breastmilk? with @lactationlab Stephanie Canale, MD

              #188: Is your breastmilk the same as my breastmilk? What if my breastmilk is lacking in nutrients that are compromising my baby’s growth? And can I measure the quality of my breastmilk? These are questions that Dr. Stephanie Canale wondered as a new mom and is now working to answer through her work as the founder of Lactation Lab.


              In this episode Dr. Canale is explaining her breastmilk testing technology and services that are helping moms get a more clear understanding of the quality of their breastmilk and how that impacts their baby’s health.


              Listen to this episode to learn:
              1. How variations in mom’s diet can impact breastmilk and in turn, baby’s growth and development
              2. Why we should be questioning the age-old assumption that all human breastmilk contains equivalent amounts and levels of nutrients
              3. What changes mom can make in her diet (with food, not supplements) if her breastmilk testing results indicate deficiencies

                      • What if I Don't Eat the Same BLW Foods as My Baby? with Katelynn Sasaki, MS, RDN

                        #186: How bad is it if you don’t eat the same food your baby eats? Are you doing irreparable baby-led weaning damage if you don’t want to or can’t model eating BLW foods with your baby? Registered Dietitian Katelynn Sasaki is joining me on the podcast to break down a few scenarios where you might not want to or can’t eat the same foods as your baby, and what that means (and doesn’t mean) for your baby’s self-feeding success.


                        Listen to this episode to learn:
                        1. The benefits of modeling self-feeding for your baby...but why it’s also not the end of the world if you can’t swing this
                        2. Situations where you can’t or might not be able to eat what your baby eats, including medical, child-care, personal preference or picky eating issues...it’s all ok!

                                      • Bread: When Can Babies Safely Eat Bread?

                                        #183: Is bread the best food for early eaters to eat? When can babies safely eat bread? In this episode we’re diving into bread for baby-led weaning, looking at sodium levels, swallowing safety and some simple ideas for non-bread carbohydrate foods your baby can more safely eat early on in BLW.


                                        Listen to this episode to learn:
                                        1. The nutrition benefits of bread....basically it boils down to carbohydrate and there are safer starchy foods your baby can eat early on besides bread
                                        2. Why low sodium bread is not the answer for early eaters and how it can actually be even more dangerous than regular bread
                                        3. Non-bread starchy foods - including whole grains - 20 of them in fact that babies can safely eat for baby-led weaning!

                                          • GERD: Does Starting Solids Early Help Babies with GERD? with Peter Lu, MD

                                            #182: What do babies with reflux or GERD need to do differently when it comes to starting solid foods? In this episode pediatric gastroenterologist Peter Lu, MD is joining me to run through how having GERD affects a baby's ability to do baby-led weaning. Dr. Lu specializes in motility disorders and is a real life first time dad of baby Emma. They’re doing baby-led weaning with her, so he knows exactly what you’re going through too!


                                            If you’ve ever been told that starting solid foods early will help manage a baby's GERD, Dr. Lu has some new and exciting research and findings that will reframe how you think about timing your GERD baby’s intro to solid foods.


                                            Listen to this episode to learn:
                                            1. Why parents of babies with GERD or reflux symptoms are told to start solid foods early and why we need to reframe the timeline for introduction for babies with reflux symptoms
                                            2. What reflux is, why the worst is probably behind you by the time your baby is ready to start solid foods, and what if any modifications we should make for BLW in GERD babies
                                            3. Dr. Lu’s own baby-led weaning journey with his first baby Emma and his thoughts about dad guilt when it comes to offering her new foods as a working parent

                                              • Which Thanksgiving Foods Can Babies Safely Eat?

                                                #181: Bring that baby up to the table for Thanksgiving! In this episode we’re digging through the Thanksgiving menu to find foods that babies can safely eat for baby-led weaning. From turkey to mashed potatoes and roasted veggies on the side, I’m sharing my favorite Thanksgiving foods for babies (plus advice on which holiday meal foods to pass on too).


                                                Listen to this episode to learn:
                                                1.  Turkey - and why we prefer the dark meat (legs, wings, thighs) over turkey breast...plus what to do about the gravy
                                                2. Potatoes - mashed potatoes are a great food for baby-led weaning, just steer clear of the sodium + avoid skins 
                                                3. Vegetables - ideas on some roasted veggies that work great for baby-led weaning, plus the drawbacks of green beans and cranberry sauce for babies
