Gagging: What do I do if My Baby Gags on Food?

#221: Gagging vs. choking: What’s the difference and when should you worry? It is important to understand that gagging is part of the feeding process when introducing a baby to solid foods and a gagging baby may often be confused with a choking one. In this episode, we are touching on some of the ways to recognize the differences between choking and gagging to help parents and caregivers get over their fear of seeing their baby gag while doing baby-led weaning.   Shownotes with all the links mentioned in this episode are here: https://blwpodcast.com/221 Links from this episode: • CPR skills save babies’ lives.
