Episode 100!! Happy Mother’s Day and Introducing Solids to Baby: Interview with Madison Holden

Thank you so much for listening to this very special episode today. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there and to all of the moms-to-be! I hope you have a wonderful day where you feel honored and recognized for all that you do. Today’s episode is extra special because this is the 100th episode of the Finding Your Village podcast! It is hard to believe that I have created 100 episodes of this podcast and that people listen to the show and keep showing up 100 episodes in! Thank you to everyone who has listened to one episode or all 100. I appreciate you so much and you are the reason why I show up every week.

To commemorate the 100th episode of my podcast and as a Mother’s Day gift to all of the expecting moms out there, I am offering $5 birth classes this week. They will be live on Facebook and I will do one class starting tomorrow, Monday, May 9th at 12 noon EST and then there will be another class at the same time on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Each class will focus on a different aspect of labor and birth preparation. You can take just one of the classes individually for $5 or take all four for $20.

In today’s episode we are talking about introducing solids to baby and our guest is Madison Holden, who is a ​​pediatric nurse and certified postpartum and baby nutritionist , and a mom of two. Her goal is to empower and provide knowledge to new moms to help nourish and replenish themselves after labor. So this episode is going to focus on doing just that.

In the episode we discuss: 

  • When to introduce solids to baby

  • What is more important than baby’s age is readiness signs

  • What the readiness signs are!

  • Using nutrient dense food that are gentle on the digestive system 

  • What kinds of food and texture to introduce to baby

  • Following baby’s cue

  • Add spices (not too spicy or salty!) to your baby’s mood
