You know your baby better than anyone — but when it comes to milestones, feeding, or development, it’s easy to second-guess yourself...and you're not alone! In this episode, I’m joined by Jordyn Gorman of Eat, Play, Say — a pediatric therapist and mama who helps parents support their baby’s growth holistically.
We’re covering baby milestones, early intervention, starting solids, feeding confidence, and how to trust your mama gut. If you’ve wondered, “Is my baby on track?” or “Should I start solids yet?” — this one’s for you, mama.
In this episode:
• When to trust your gut vs. seek early intervention (and it’s free in the U.S.)
• How to know if baby is ready for solids — and what to start with
• Breastfeeding, bottle-feeding & formula facts for confident feeding choices
• High-protein, nutrient-dense foods for babies who need more calories
• Why play is the most powerful tool for development (ages 0–5)
• The impact of screens & distraction on early childhood development
• How to advocate for your child when something feels “off”
From feeding to milestones, this episode is your guide to understanding your baby’s whole-body development — and trusting your instincts every step of the way.
