Baby Behavior at Mealtimes: What the Science Says with Tina Payne Bryson, PhD

#74: What is your baby’s behavior at mealtime telling you? Is it possible to spoil a baby by feeding him too much? Can babies even exhibit “bad” behavior? In this episode author, child development and parenting specialist Tina Payne Bryson, PhD is joining me to break it ALL down when it comes to your baby’s behavior at mealtimes - diving DEEP into what the science says!

Tina is the co-author of well-known parenting books such as The Whole-Brain Child and No Drama Discipline (...aka the BIBLE when my quadruplets were toddlers and I had NO idea how to compassionately discipline!) I love Tina’s science-based approach to tackling topics and she’s covering a TON of baby behavior in her new book The Bottom Line For Baby.

Listen to this episode to learn:

1. Why it’s basically impossible to spoil your baby...so don’t worry that your doting or your preferred method for starting solid foods is going to spoil your baby. It won’t!

2. How to connect and redirect when our babies are playing with or dropping food. Plus Tina also covers how these behaviors change during different stages of infancy.

3. How baby-led weaning helps babies develop “interception” - or the idea of what’s going on internally...so they’re learning how to recognize & respond to their hunger cues.
