Description

#479: Does your baby need teeth to eat? Chewing is more about jaw strength and coordination than having teeth…and you would be surprised how many soft foods your baby can eat before they have a tooth or teeth. In this episode we explore how to safely offer finger fods to your baby before they have teeth.


Listen to this episode to learn:


  1. Which finger foods you should wait until your baby has a least one tooth to offer

  2. Why jaw strength and coordination matters more in chewing than having teeth

  3. How to modify foods to make them safe for your baby to eat…even before they have teeth
