How to Introduce Solids with Confidence: A No-Stress Guide with Jenny Best of Solid Starts

This week, I’m joined by Jenny Best, founder of Solid Starts and one of the most trusted voices in baby-led feeding, for a super informative and stress-reducing conversation about starting solids. Whether you’re a first-time parent or navigating food with baby #3, Jenny shares practical advice, research-backed insights, and personal stories to help you feel more confident and calm about this big milestone.

We talk about how baby-led weaning differs from the traditional puree path, how to reduce the fear of choking, why mess is a good thing, and how to fold your baby into the family meal (instead of making separate “kid food”). Jenny also shares tips for that very first food, what to actually buy (or not buy), and why letting baby lead the way is key to building a healthy relationship with food.

Whether your baby is 5 months or you're prepping for solids down the line, this episode will give you the reassurance and tools to approach this stage with more ease and a lot less anxiety.
