105. Why Starting Solids Feels So Scary for Moms with Cinthia Scott
Starting solids is one of the most exciting—and overwhelming—milestones of early parenthood. From figuring out when to start, to worrying about choking hazards, allergies, and whether you’re doing it “right,” it’s easy to feel lost in a sea of conflicting advice.
In this episode of Burnt Pancakes, I’m joined by Cinthia Scott—registered dietitian, lactation consultant, mom, and co-author of the upcoming American Academy of Pediatrics book Baby Leads the Way. Together with pediatrician Dr. Krupa Playforth, Cinthia has created a research-backed, approachable guide to help parents introduce solid foods with confidence and calm.
We talk about:
The signs your baby is truly ready for solids
How to safely let babies self-feed
Combining purees and baby-led feeding without confusion
Early allergen introduction and what the science says
Preventing picky eating by building adventurous habits early
Real-life tips for handling messy meals and skeptical relatives
Cinthia’s 6-pillar approach to raising healthy, intuitive eaters
Whether you're gearing up to start solids or you're deep in the spaghetti-on-the-walls stage, this episode is packed with practical tips and reassurance to help you feel confident—and maybe even laugh a little—along the way.
