Is My Baby on Track? Understanding Feeding Milestones
Sweet mama, this episode is like sitting down for coffee with your most knowledgeable friend who truly gets the beautiful complexity of feeding your little one.
I'm walking you through your baby's feeding journey from those tender first days all the way to watching them confidently feed themselves - and honestly, I wish someone had shared these insights with me when I was navigating this path myself.
We'll talk about why breast milk really is liquid gold that adapts perfectly to your baby's needs (and why extended nursing is something to celebrate, not apologize for). I'll help you recognize the real readiness signs for starting solids - because it's about so much more than just hitting a certain age - and share why I'm passionate about animal-based first foods like egg yolks for optimal brain development.
You'll learn when to embrace the beautiful mess of self-feeding, how to trust your child's natural timeline, and most importantly, when those mama instincts are telling you to seek support from a feeding specialist. Because early intervention isn't about failure - it's about giving your child the best possible start.
This conversation is for every mama who's ever wondered "Am I doing this right?" or felt overwhelmed by conflicting feeding advice. You're going to leave feeling confident in your instincts, excited about your journey, and reminded that you already know your child better than anyone.
Trust me, mama - you've got this, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.
