Monday, March 31, 2025 • Duration 56:17

Starting solids can feel exciting and terrifying all at once—because, let’s be real, there’s an overwhelming amount of (often conflicting) advice out there. Do you start with purées?

Enter: Jenny Best.

Jenny is the founder & CEO of Solid Starts, the go-to resource for parents navigating the wild world of feeding babies. In this episode, she drops some serious knowledge bombs that completely shift the way we think about baby food—like why spoon-feeding isn’t actually necessary, how self-feeding reduces choking risk, and why gagging is a good thing (yes, really).

We also get into: 🍽️ The biggest myths about starting solids 🥕 Why babies don’t need teeth to eat real food 🚫 How pressuring kids to eat backfires 📉 The outdated feeding advice still being given by pediatricians

If you’re ready to stress way less about feeding your baby, this episode is for you. Grab your snack of choice (no purées required) and hit play! 🎧 #WhatIWishIKnew #StartingSolids #ParentingUnfiltered
