Repost: Don't Be THIS Person at America's Birthday Party This Year

Suggestions, Comments, or Questions? [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2202632/fan_mail/new] This is a repost of an episode we recorded a couple of years ago, targeting Great Aunt Sally or Uncle Henry and their comments on food and bodies at holiday gatherings. We thought a repost of this episode for July 4th was appropriate, where food, drinks, and bathing suits abound. Remember, your body and what you choose to eat are nobody's business but your own, and maybe your favorite RD's ;) Don't miss this episode or our next podcast drop in 2 weeks with NEW CONTENT!!

Suggestions, Comments, or Questions? [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2202632/fan_mail/new] ICYMI: Jen Belanger Nutrition now offers lactation consulting! And you know what happens to babies after they breastfeed? They need to start solids at 6 months! So for all of our lactation mamas, this one's for you! In this episode, we are giving you all the information you need to know about starting solids through spoon feeding and purees for your baby. While we are big Baby Led Weaning fans, and have done a couple of episodes about this method way back on the pod, this week we talk about why the more traditional way of starting solids may be right for your family compared to Baby Led Weaning.  Disclaimer: Any information that I discuss on this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and should not be taken as medical advice.
