If you're interested in more details, let the person who gave you access to this course know. Get ready for a quick overview of the key highlights!

I share important information and tips on how to introduce solid foods to your baby. I discuss the concept of the "window of opportunity" for introducing different flavors and textures, and why it's important to start at around six months of age. I also debunk the myth that babies have a natural preference for sweet foods and emphasize the benefits of diversifying your baby's food experiences early on. 

Additionally, I provide guidance on creating a positive mealtime environment, being patient and persistent, and avoiding pressure when introducing new foods. 

I discuss the nutritional differences between store-bought and homemade baby food. I explain how store-bought baby food is processed using ultra-high heat, resulting in a decrease in vitamins and minerals. 

On the other hand, homemade baby food allows for more control over ingredients, diverse flavors, and the introduction of whole foods. I provide pros and cons for both options.

I discuss the decision-making process when it comes to introducing solid foods to your baby. I explain the options of finger feeding and spoon feeding, and how you can choose the method that suits your baby's needs and preferences.

Join me as we explore these key aspects of fostering a healthy relationship with food. 

I discuss how to prevent and manage common tummy issues in babies, such as constipation, diarrhea, bloating, gas, and acid reflux. I provide important information on the causes of these issues and offer tips on introducing solid foods and choosing the right foods to alleviate discomfort.
