#206: What is my feeding role as a parent and how do I make sure that I stay in my lane to ensure a healthy feeding relationship with my baby? Oftentimes it is common to feel the need and responsibility to manage what, when, and how much our babies eat but in reality a parent and a baby have different jobs during the transition into solid foods and learning how to eat.

In this episode, I am joined by Marsha Dunn Klein, OTR/L, MEd, FAOTA who is a pediatric occupational therapist specialized in working with children who have feeding challenges for 50 years and she is here to clearly define what a parent and baby role consist of and provide us with some tips on how to build a stronger feeding relationship.
