    Starting Solids Without the Stress: What Your Baby Really Needs with Gina Urlich

    Starting solids is an exciting milestone, but it can also leave even the most prepared mama second-guessing every spoonful. When is your baby really ready? What should their first food be? Are purées better than baby-led weaning? How can you make sure your baby is getting enough iron, and what should you be looking for on a baby-food label? In this practical and reassuring episode of the OHbaby! We Got This! podcast, OHbaby! founder Angela Harter talks with clinical nutritionist, mum of four and baby-food founder Gina Urlich about what babies really need when they begin eating solids. Gina explains the developmental signs that show your baby may be ready for food, why a six-month-old baby needs more iron than an adult man, and why meat can be a brilliant first food. She also shares how early flavour exposure may help create a more adventurous eater and reduce fussy eating later. You’ll learn: • The signs that your baby is ready to start solids• Which nutrients matter most at around six months• The best iron-rich first foods for babies• Why savoury flavours deserve a place beside fruit• How to support your baby’s developing gut health• The benefits of spoon-feeding and baby-led weaning• Why a combination of feeding styles can work beautifully• What to look for on packaged baby-food labels• How much sugar may be hiding in popular baby foods• The first meal Gina would give her own baby If you are approaching the starting-solids stage or already standing in the kitchen wondering whether your baby is eating the “right” things, this is the episode you need. Listen, save it and share it with another mama. Starting solids does not need to be perfect or complicated. With the right information, you can feed your baby with confidence.
