Will Offering Fruit Before Vegetables Make Your Baby Crave Sweet Foods?

#23: Ever wonder if feeding your baby fruit is going to give your baby a sweet tooth? Does offering fruit before vegetables cause babies to crave sweet foods?

 

Fruit is an important food group for your baby to tackle...but too much of a good thing is not a good thing! In this episode we explore why fruit is your friend (...albeit in moderation), why your baby does not need juice and tips on how to serve baby-led weaning fruits safely to your baby. 

 

I also share why the “banana lipstick” (...offering your baby half of a banana with skin still on the lower quarter of it) is NOT my favorite baby-led weaning trend with tips on a safer (cleaner) way to offer your baby this easy to feed fruit.
