65. From Confusion to Clarity: The Birth of @baby.food.bible

I can't wait for you to listen to this pod ep with Lauren and Jules, the brains behind Baby Food Bible.

They share the challenges they faced when navigating the complexities of starting solids and how this inspired them to write a simplified guide for parents. We also get some insights into the process behind actually bringing this book to life and how they found the time whilst juggling mum life and all the things.

Jules and Lauren are so down to earth and I love that they share the realities of parent life including mess in the kitchen, around the house and that we don't have to have it all figured out 100% of the time.

Key takeaways:

• The idea for Babel emerged from the confusion surrounding baby nutrition.
• Simplicity in cooking is key for busy parents.
• Starting solids should be approached with patience and awareness of readiness cues.
• Creating a positive feeding environment can influence a child's relationship with food.
• Avoiding comparisons with other parents can reduce anxiety.
• Introducing a variety of flavours early on is beneficial for babies.
• It's okay to not have everything figured out as a parent.
• It's important to focus on what you do most of the time, not just occasionally.
