## Resource

#117: Is your baby suddenly refusing a food they loved yesterday? Food rejection can feel frustrating when you’re just starting solid foods, but it’s also a very typical part of how babies learn to eat. In this episode, I’m explaining why babies may accept a food one day and refuse it the next, what this behavior actually means, and how to keep offering foods without pressure so your baby can build diet diversity over time. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why food rejection is a normal part of learning to eat, even when your baby liked that same food yesterday 2. What it actually means when your baby refuses a familiar food and why it does not mean they hate it forever 3. How to keep offering rejected foods without pressure so your baby can build diet diversity over time Shownotes for this episode can be found here: https://www.babyledweaning.co/podcast/117 Links from This Episode: • Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro program with the 100 First Foods™ Daily Meal Plan, join here: ⁠https://babyledweaning.co/program⁠ and use the code BLWPOD50 to save $50 when you sign up. • Baby-Led Weaning for Beginners free online workshop with 100 First Foods™ list to all attendees, register here: ⁠https://babyledweaning.co/baby-led-weaning-for-beginners⁠ Other Episodes Related to This Topic: • Episode 73 - What to Do When Your Baby Won't Eat • Episode 93 - Reintroducing Familiar Foods Back on Your Baby's Plate • Episode 312 - 3 Easy Responsive Feeding Techniques when Starting Solid Foods with Stephanie Cohen, MA, CCC-SLP, CLC 🌱 🌱🌱🌱 🌱 Not sure about which foods to offer your baby next?
