Book Overview

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The definitive guide to introducing real food to babies--from the board-certified experts on baby-led weaning and feeding, trusted by millions of parents around the world.

"Like a conversation with a trustworthy friend who is also a seasoned pediatric expert."--Tina Payne Bryson, PhD, New York Times bestselling co-author of The Whole-Brain Child and No-Drama Discipline, and author of The Bottom Line for Baby

Led by a multidisciplinary team of licensed pediatric feeding professionals, Solid Starts has emerged as the go-to resource for modern families searching for a research-based approach to solid food introduction to babies. In their debut book, they debunk the myth that "baby food" is necessary and show how, from the moment that baby is ready to begin the transition from breast or bottle to solid food, baby can enjoy almost any food--the same food that you want to eat--with some basic safety modifications. In this book, they share:

- How to cultivate curiosity, build trust at the table, and get out of the way at mealtime so babies can do what they were born to do: eat.
- How the early introduction to many flavors and textures before age one builds baby's palate and familiarity with food before the opinionated toddler years.
- Why food need not be pureed and why six-month-old babies are developmentally capable of eating real food.
- Why allowing baby to grab, hold, and eat food on their own maximizes sensory motor learning, fosters problem-solving skills, and can actually decrease the risk of choking.
- The nutritional, developmental, and psychological benefits to sharing the same food that you like to eat with baby.
- Techniques and guidance for sharing family meals with baby during each development window, from four months of age through early toddlerhood.
- The latest evidence on choking, safety, food allergens, nutrition, food shapes and sizes, and how recommendations are rapidly changing.

With practical, research-backed strategies, Solid Starts for Babies helps parents nurture confidence and sets up families for mealtime joy.
