Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro Adapted Baby-Led Weaning for Feeding Challenges with Jill Rabin, MS, CCC-SLP/L, IBCLC
#198: Is baby-led weaning unsafe for babies with feeding difficulties? Is it even attainable to successfully transition babies with special needs into solids by using the BLW approach? In this episode pediatric speech pathologist and international board certified lactation consultant Jill Rabin joins me to talk about the adapted baby-led weaning approach that she developed to safely help babies with feeding challenges be successful with the baby-led weaning approach.
