What Shape&Size Should My Baby’s Food Be at First? - a podcast by Katie Ferraro

#6: What size should I cut my baby’s food? What shape foods should I offer for baby-led weaning? It can be confusing, but smaller foods are not ideal when your baby is just learning to eat. Your baby can’t pick up and self-feed very small pieces early on, and cutting foods so small can increase choking risk early on in feeding.

 

In this episode I explain what shape and size to cut baby foods when you are starting baby-led weaning. I share some simple starter foods that are safe for babies to eat, along with information about other foods not to feed early on. For older babies you can progress to different shape and size foods and I’ll show you how you know if your baby is ready to move on to these more challenging foods.

 

If you’re ready to raise an independent eater and prevent picky eating then let’s get started learning about baby-led weaning together! Subscribe, rate and review the podcast here.
