How Do I Avoid Raising A Fussy Eater? 👶🤷‍♀️

I get this question a lot! Unsurprisingly, the first year of a baby's life is the most important in terms of developing good eating and food habits 🥕🥗

If you're worried about your baby becoming a fussy eater, here are my tips on how to avoid this:

1. Offer a wide variety of foods and always aim to introduce new tastes and textures! Offering the same food over and over again may teach your baby that they should only be consuming those types of food, which can start the routine of food fussiness.

2. Get the setting right! Eating as a family in a space that is free of distraction will encourage your baby to focus on their food and eat along with the family.

3. Let your baby make a mess! When a baby is allowed to explore and experiment with their foods, they are less likely to have an aversion to new foods or textures as they grow, hence avoiding fussiness.

4. Most importantly, don't stress! Sometimes it just takes time for your baby to accept certain foods. Don't give up and just enjoy the journey without putting pressure on yourself. Every baby will have its own journey.
