Episode The 6.5-Month Milk Strike Solution (and Why He Needs Solids NOW)

0:00 37:10

In this episode, we tackle the reality of a social butterfly's "milk strike," the crucial window for allergen exposure, and how to safely navigate baby-led weaning.

Must-Knows for Parents:

• Why just four milk feeds a day is enough for a healthy 6.5-month-old. • The life-saving difference between choking and gagging during solids introduction. • The importance of quickly introducing variety and allergens (like peanuts and fish) to build a healthy gut and prevent future picky eating. • Simple activities to prepare your baby for crawling.

Nina Clark is a boy mum of two and the founder of Nightire, a sleepwear and bedding business specializing in 100% organic bamboo. Originally from South Africa, Nina joins Meg to share her honest and relatable journey navigating life with a second baby, Josh, as a busy entrepreneur.
