In this episode of “The My Little Eater Podcast”, I cover an incredibly popular topic regarding the concept of baby led weaning – gagging versus choking! I teach you what the difference is, why gagging is actually a positive thing (that’s right, it is!), and how to move past your fears regarding this topic in order to confidently feed your baby.
If you are still feeling completely terrified of gagging, don’t know how to start feeding solids, or just want all of the info to be prepared, enroll in my Baby Led Feeding course now and start feeding solids with complete confidence! (https://mylittleeater.fixed-staging.co.uk/baby-led-feeding/)
