BLW Teething Tweaks: What Changes Do I M...

KATIE FERRARO
About this episode

#213: Do I have to wait until my baby has teeth to offer solids? Nope!..And although teething is often a time when babies begin to experience a change, it is really not necessary to make any drastic adjustments to solid foods during the teething process. In this episode I discuss the idea that having teeth is not a prerequisite for introducing solids and share some recommendations for teething babies who are ready to begin their baby-led weaning journey!
