Las Vegas Parents Sneezing, coughing, postnasal drip... it's not always easy to tell the difference between seasonal allergies and colds. 🤧 But learning to tell them apart is key for diagnosis and treatment, which can help your child feel better faster.

Excellent tips from our friend @kids.nutritionist

Excellent tips from our friend @kids.nutritionist Double tap💕 for intuitive eating!⁣⁣⁠⁠
⁠⁠
If you grew up hearing "you have to finish your plate" 🙋‍♀️it can be so hard to see your little one eat different amounts at each meal.⁣⁠⁠
⁣⁣⁠⁠
There is one strategy that can be helpful for BOTH families who struggle with kids who eat " A LOT" or " a LITTLE?”⁣⁣⁠⁠
⁣⁣⁠⁠
It's small portions.⁣⁣⁠⁠
⁣⁣⁣⁠⁠
Hear me out...⁣⁣⁠⁠
⁣⁣⁠⁠
For kids who eat “A LOT”:⁣⁣⁠⁠
-Starting with small portions means if they have seconds or thirds, it may still give them time to pause and tune in to their bodies needs. ⁣⁣⁠⁠
Pausing= more mindful eating⁣⁣⁠⁠
⁣⁣⁠⁠
For kids who eat " a LITTLE":⁣⁣⁠⁠
-Starting with small portions is less overwhelming, and they may just need more frequent consistent meals/snacks. ⁣⁣⁠⁠
You’re not restricting them, because they can always have MORE. You can also make those small bites count! ⁣⁣⁠⁠
⁣⁣⁠⁠
Either way, both kids with varying appetites, learn to listen to their body’s hunger/fullness around food. Which is SO important for them to grow to have a healthy relationship with food growing up.🙌⁣⁣⁠⁠

Great menu tips from our friend @infant.nutritioni

Great menu tips from our friend @infant.nutritionist Takeout for baby?! 🥡
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Yup! Whether you’re in a pinch, out and about, or just wanna share with your babe — there’s likely an option for them!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let’s start with Teriyaki! This is a fave in our home. What can baby have?
✅ Cooked veggies — broccoli is most often in ours and can be served chopped or on a big ol’ floret!
✅ Steamed rice — I often add a little oil or butter to get in some fat and also prevent it from being overly dry
✅ Teriyaki chicken — tender/moist chicken is your best bet. Serving chopped into little pieces for pincer grasp. If baby isn’t quite to pincer yet, could serve a thin slice. As always, watch baby closely 💗
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Be sure to ask:
❌If any sauces contain honey 🍯 — as we want to avoid before age one
❔If you can get any items unsalted — if not, no worries — it’s still safe to serve!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What other takeout/restaurant meals would you like to see? 👇🏼

As we get close to our very hot weather in Las Vegas it is important that we keep our kiddos hydrated.
.
Did you know you can eat your fluids??

Yep! Many fruits and veggies are composed of mainly water, therefore, they are very hydrating!

If you are bored of plain water, add more of these items to your diet or even chop them up and make an infused water.

Many people crave citrus fruits which can partially be explained by the high water content.

Learn proper nutrition by color. Why do I not tell

Learn proper nutrition by color.
Why do I not tell my kids "this is healthy" very often? ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
"Healthy" to describe foods, is a vague and weak word.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
To the child who eats everything, whole wheat bread can be healthy.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
To the child who has celiac disease, whole wheat bread is unhealthy.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
To the child who only has 5 foods they can eat due to avoidant restrictive feeding intake disorder, whole wheat bread is unhealthy. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
We can play this game with every food... sure, we know fruits and veggies and purple foods are great (for most people). We know our kids will be healthy eating a variety of foods (and our kids MAY be healthy even if they don't). ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Health is complicated. I love to simplify this and call foods by their names. "This is a carrot." "This is bread." "This is a potato." There's so much beautiful simplicity out there. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Yes, food may have meaning, power, and health FOR ME, but in an of itself, it's just a food.⁠⁠

Great tip to satisfying those hungry kiddos - "They ate 3 bowls of cereal and are hungry 10 minutes later?" "Didn't I just feed you a whole bag of pretzels? How are you hungry?"⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Kids burn through quick energy like cereal, pretzels, puffs, "snacks".... Like in seconds. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I've gotten into the (parent survival) habit of serving fat and protein with every snack I possibly can. Because then they stay full!!!⁠⁠

Relax those little quirks are normal. These little

Relax those little quirks are normal.
These little guys do many quirky things. Let’s look at a few things that often cause parents to worry. ⁣
⁣
🐣Nails grow fast - Kids have a higher metabolic rate so their skin cells (which is what makes up nails) turns over more quickly⁣.⁣
⁣
🐣Babies sleep in frog position - Babies limbs are bent early just as they were in the womb. ⁣
⁣
🐣Sneezing- Babies sneeze because they can’t blow their nose⁣.⁣
⁣
🐣Hiccups - These are innocent, although no one is really sure why they happen⁣.⁣
⁣
🐣Snoring-Babies have tiny nasal passages and a tiny amount of mucous will cause snoring.⁣
⁣
🐣Leg jerks during sleep- A still developing nervous system can cause your baby’s leg to tremble. It should stop when you touch it.⁣
⁣
🐣Red face with pooping - Babies will often strain with stooling in part due to the fact that they don’t have gravity to help them pass stool.⁣
⁣
🐣Bottom lip quivers - Typically the result of an immature nervous system.⁣
⁣
🐣Startling - All babies are born with a reflex called the Moro reflex. He’ll throw his arms wide, spread his fingers and then makes a fist as he’s instinctively grabbing for you. This reflex disappears with time. ⁣

Please don't ever feel like you're alone. You can

Please don't ever feel like you're alone. You can always call your friends at #strosepeds - The mental load of motherhood is REAL.😔And so many of us carry it alone.

It’s no wonder we become consumed by the overwhelm.

As moms, it’s our job to love and care for our children ❤️…but sometimes that responsibility turns into carrying ALL the concerns, fears and to-dos in our head…ALONE.

👉We are managing so much those early days and overloaded with thoughts that make us feel like we are carrying the weight of motherhood. 🌎

👉We may play these unrealistic expectations and words of others in our heads on repeat...contributing to the overwhelm we already feel in the day-to-day.

〽️Stress
〽️Exhaustion
〽️Loneliness
〽️Anxiety
〽️Depression
〽️Anger

It becomes a perpetual cycle that's hard to break...when we don't have the resources or tools we need.

Motherhood requires a village of support because it’s one of the most important jobs in the world.

Do you carry the weight of motherhood all alone? Do you know how to work through the mental load, silence all the noise and find support?

There's always stuff to learn about foods - and your child may or may not be interested. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
You may have the kid who is super interested and asks all the questions. You may have the kid who does not and will never care about what's in food.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Both are fine. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
When I'm talking to my kids about food - I look for opportunities to build on their interest. If they aren't interested, I don't shove nutrition information down their throats. If they show curiosity, I take the opportunity and go for it.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
But how cool that Vitamin A keeps us seeing in the dark? And how cool that we can sort of see in the dark to begin with! I've seen many a kid learn to love carrots after learning they help them see in the dark. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Does your child like carrots?⁠⁠
⁠⁠
🥕 If you're struggling with your child not eating veggies, I highly recommend my free child feeding guide in my bio - it gives you tons of help to getting your child on the road to eating better. 🥕 ⁠⁠

Excellent nutrition tips from our friend @infant.n

Excellent nutrition tips from our friend @infant.nutritionist Hands up 🙌🏽🙌🏻🙌🏿 for ditching baby feeding “rules”!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“You need to serve your baby vegetables first or else they’ll never eat them!”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is just so not the case 🙅🏻‍♀️ The thought that once baby tastes sweetness 🍌that they’ll never enjoy other flavors 🥦 is not proven.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Babies HAVE tasted sweetness!! Breastmilk and formula have a sweet flavor — so really it’s all baby has ever known! 💁🏻‍♀️ That doesn’t mean it’s all they’ll ever like. It’s up to us to offer baby a wide variety of flavors — sweet, tart, bland, flavorful, bitter — all of it!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In the Starting Solids Society 🥦 you get the support to make informed feeding choices — based on what baby actually needs! Apply for the coaching program using the link in bio! 💗

Our friends at @kids.eat.in.color always have the

Our friends at @kids.eat.in.color always have the best tips for our kiddos nutrition.

"Kid food" is code for "food that tastes amazing on the very first bite"! Which is fun. But I sell my kid short if I don't give them the time needed to learn to like food that takes time to learn to like.⁠⠀
⁣⁠⠀
Sometimes it's scary when we serve a food they won't eat. Will they be okay? Will they get everything they need? I always remind myself that it's okay if my kids don't eat fish or broccoli or potatoes or whatever. I can find other nutritious foods that they will eat in the meantime. I can wait for them to learn to like family food before jumping to "kid food". ⁣⁠⠀
⁣⁠⠀
There may be times I choose to serve "kid food", but that's my choice. It's not something I HAVE to do because my child won't eat something. This won't be true for all kids (some SPD and autism moms may attest). But for the majority of kids, it's okay to let them learn to like family food on their own timeline without offering a "love it on the first bite" alternative.⁣⁠⠀
⁣⁠⠀
🐟I really loved eating the fish sticks in this picture. Brought me back to my childhood. I'm sure my mom only served them when she was at her wits end, but we adored her for serving them and they were nothing but magic to us. ⁣⁠⠀
⁣⁠⠀
Did you have fish sticks as a kid?⁣⁠⠀
⁣⁠⠀
My little food picks and condiment containers are in my Amazon store in my story highlights. ⁣amazon.com/shop/kidseatincolor⁠⠀

Wonderful info from our friend @infant.nutritionis

Wonderful info from our friend @infant.nutritionist Are you stuck in the “top off” trap? 🚫
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You’re not alone! This is one of the MOST common issues mamas come to me with. We want to transition baby to finger foods buuuut we’re nervous they won’t get enough. Or, our little one doesn’t eat as much as we feel they should so we spoon feed a purée after the meal to make sure they fill up.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are several problems that can arise from “topping off” — one being that it can lead us to not respect (or sometimes even recognize) our baby’s fullness cues.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So what can we do? One ☝🏼 option for some babies is to serve the purée/mash AT the meal! Some easier-to-eat options (purée) with some foods that take a bit more learning & effort to eat (finger foods).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In the Starting Solids Society you’ll learn how to offer baby a variety of textures while learning to trust their hunger & fullness cues. Apply for the coaching program using the ✨link in bio!✨
