If you experience bloating, you are not alone. It’s one of the most common complaints people have about their digestion. Of course, in a world that glorifies pancake-flat stomachs and chiselled abs, in an area of the body that houses trillions of microbes and where, quite frankly, a lot of life-sustaining processes are occurring (think digestive system, bladder, and, for some, the uterus), it makes sense that we might feel a little uncomfortable when bloating occurs.

Starting the journey onwards from milk to real foods is an exciting milestone, but it can also feel overwhelming (even for a qualified nutritionist). From baby-led weaning (BLW) and choking risks to allergens and salt limits, there’s a lot to take in. This guide brings together clear, evidence-based answers to some of the most common weaning questions and certainly the ones I had.

And just like that, it seems I no longer have a teeny tiny newborn but a real life baby! As we move into our 3-6 month era, I thought I’d take a moment to reflect on 6 things I wish I’d known as a first time Mum.
