About this listen

Are you ready to stop dreading weaning and enjoy it instead? Keep reading.

There's no right way to be a parent. Your baby is unique, just like you, and this means that what works for one child might not work for another. The key lies in finding a balanced approach that encourages healthy eating.

For many parents, baby-led weaning is the answer, but how can you make this method work for you without taking up hours of your day?

With this easy-to-follow guide, you'll take the guesswork out of the weaning process. Rather than trying to follow strict rules that are unrealistic for the modern parent, you'll discover how to simplify and streamline the weaning process for you and your baby.

Many parents fret over the transition to purees and solid foods - they worry about choosing the right types of foods, serving healthy meals, and above all, preparing foods correctly to reduce the risk of choking.

But it doesn't have to be this way.

In fact, weaning can be something that's just as enjoyable for you as it is for your baby. With simple tips and tricks, you will learn how to approach baby-led weaning like pro, help your child develop healthy eating habits from the very beginning, and turn weaning into a process that's fun for the entire family.

Say good-bye to the picture-perfect parent you see on social media, and discover an approach that embraces the reality of being a busy parent.

Here is just a fraction of what you will discover in Spoons and Solids:

  • How to determine the best tailored feeding approach for your family
  • The difference between choking and gagging - and what to do if either one occurs
  • Simple cooking hacks that will make preparing food easy, even for the busiest of parents
  • How to modify baby-led weaning as your baby's motor skills and tastes continue to develop - and what to offer at each skill level
  • What not to do when introducing your baby to new foods - and the common mistake that many parents make during this process
  • Benefits of the baby-led weaning method, and how it helps raise independent, healthy, and adventurous eaters from the very beginning
  • Step-by-step guidance on how to improve spoon-feeding and properly respond to your baby's reactions
  • Practical answers to the most frequently asked questions that parents have about feeding
  • Guidelines to transform any adult meal into a baby-appropriate version so the whole family can enjoy meals together
  • Easy three-ingredient recipes you can make in advance for those busy days on the go
  • Healthy meal plans approved by a board-certified specialist in pediatric nutrition
  • And much more

You don't need to drive yourself crazy preparing complicated meals each day or stressing about your baby's nutritional needs. With baby-led weaning, you can take the techniques and practices that work best for you and create a plan that makes weaning simple and stress-free.

Don't spend another minute feeling confused, misinformed, or anxious about weaning tailor your approach to your own needs, let your baby take the lead, and discover the joys that weaning can bring.

If you're ready to let go of the doubts and worries and finally make weaning a breeze, scroll up and buy now.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

My baby girl is already a great eater so far but I still found this book to be very good to follow for advice and tips on the full weaning process. Loved the simple cooking hacks especially since I've returned to work. Would recommend.

A very useful guide I will likely look to in the future. this book covers everything from signs your baby is ready to start eating in a high chair to the pros and cons of baby led weaning and solid foods. It goes into detail about the motor functions the baby requires and how to and how not to feed your baby for example emptying the spoon forcefully against the top of their mouth but rather letting the baby do it themselves with their lips and tongue. I now know so much more than I did and will surely be returning to this guide!

Very Comprehensive and Eye Opening.

Nice to have the why behind each point addressed. The only thing for me is its hard to remember lists of food but I have not accessed the free pdfs yet.

Good book for another point of view

This is a very detailed and informative audiobook that takes a deep dive into baby led weaning. It starts by explaining what baby led weaning is and how to change the way parents think about starting their baby on solid foods. It then practically prepares your for when it's time to start and how to prepare your meals and emphasises the right nutrition that your baby needs. Trying to get your baby to eat solids can be difficult but this book makes it so much easier.

It's also a great confidence booster for parents who are struggling. The meal plans, recipes and BLW's are really good and it takes you up to the first year. The free PDF is also very handy as it has all these written down. The narrator is very clear and reassuring and makes you want to keep listening.

Will put your mind at easy!
