Finding Joy: Overcoming Weight and percentile anxiety for my daughter

I have spoken about weight and percentile anxiety many times both on my social media channels and on this podcast and now I am experiencing it. On this episode, I get candid about percentile anxiety and how it impacted my postpartum. 

I discuss: 

• How my percentile anxiety negatively impacted me postpartum 
• How anxiety over my daughter’s weight led to her having temporary feeding aversions 
• How to manage percentile and weight anxiety
• What it means to look at the big picture when it comes to weight gain
