Baby-led Weaning: A method to introduce solids and encourage self-feeding for infants (Episode 181)
from Primary Care Perspectives · host Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia
Have you ever seen a baby eating a chicken drumstick? Or gnawing on a whole strawberry or broccoli floret? Many healthcare providers may not have learned about baby-led weaning and therefore, may not teach parents about this method of introducing solids and teaching babies about self-feeding. In this episode, Dr. Katie Lockwood and Kary Rappaport, OTR/L, MS, SCFES, IBCLC, a senior feeding and swallowing specialist on the team at Solid Starts, discuss the differences between choking and gagging, serving sizes at different ages, feeding challenges, handling allergens, and more, just in time for Thanksgiving!
