Publisher's summary

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

• Guidelines to transform any adult meal into a baby-appropriate version so the whole family can enjoy meals together

Good read for parents looking for weaning approaches

This book doesn’t just include BLW, it gives other options for parents that are starting the process of weaning. The pdf and the planners help with the doubts on how to start the process and what it’s needed.

The baby-led weaning is an effective approach

I never thought about how I could improve the baby-led weaning method. It is changing my point of view now. It has very helpful and organized content. It's easy to follow the ingredients with the notes and images that the PDF doc provides. This book is time-saving now for me with less stress. It is a pleasure to listen to the narrator, who doesn't sound robotic. With the baby-led method, kids learn to eat when they’re hungry and stop when they’re full. The author provides so many detailed ideas on how to teach babies what and how to eat by following recommendations that bring healthy diet lifestyle and self-esteem for your baby and how you can make the eating process more fun. The author also explains how to eliminate some common rules when feeding your child in order to improve health outcomes.

Great for New Parents Especially New Dads

If you're a new Dad (or Mom) and have no clue what you're doing when feeding your baby then you need to listen to this book as well as download the attached PDF. This will tell you what you need to know when deciding how and what to feed your child. The attached PDF is straight and to the point on what types of food to feed your child (and when) as well as provided some useful links to choking and CPR resources. Well worth the listen!

I have not had a child yet, however for when I do I feel very prepared for the weaning process. Jocelyn makes weaning sounds found and joyful when you apply some of her tactics. Highley recommend.

Perfect Parent Resource!

This book could not have come at a more ideal time for me and my family. With a five-month-old daughter, we are beginning to start feeding her baby food. I loved the resources and detail that this book provides on how to spoon-feed your child and the different methods that come with it. I love the section on how you can transform any family meal into a meal that your baby can eat as well. Great book!

becoming a better parent

This book is very intentional in helping me become a better parent. This book gave me a lot of tips on weaning and being careful with my child. Gotten some great tips that aren't on the web. it's nice to read something that isn't surface level.

A must-have for all parents weaning their children

I am extremely mindful of how I'm going to feed my kids due to an eating disorder I developed during my up-bringing. We've been using the techniques outlined in this book with my 1 1/2 year old niece and I know we're on right track after using the methods in this book! Definitely a must-read for any new parents.
