Episode Description

 Purees are an important texture for your baby to master...but they’re not the ONLY texture your baby can eat. In this bonus episode feeding expert Dawn Winkelmann, MS, CCC-SLP explains how you can honor the principles of baby-led weaning and promote independent eating while also incorporating purees for your baby.

Dawn specializes in pediatric swallowing and is the feeding expert and a product designer for ezpz. She encourages self-feeding by spoon using a pre-loaded spoon technique and she explains how to do so safely in this episode.

You can incorporate purees for your baby along with other traditional baby-led weaning soft solid foods. Dawn also provides tips on switching from purees and talks about important feeding milestones you can help your baby achieve with baby-led weaning.
