Feeding your baby can feel overwhelming with all the conflicting advice out there. In today’s episode, I sit down with the authors of Fed Is Best and the founders of the Fed Is Best Foundation to bust common feeding myths and provide evidence-based guidance on infant feeding.
We discuss:
🍼 The realities of breastfeeding vs. formula feeding and why both can support a thriving baby
❌ Bottle refusal & nipple confusion—what it is and how to navigate it
📊 How to know if your baby is getting enough milk (signs of adequate intake)
🏥 What to look for in those critical first days and weeks after hospital discharge
🚨 When to seek help from a physician or lactation consultant to prevent feeding complications
☀️ Personal experiences with jaundice, weight loss, and newborn feeding challenges
If you’ve ever felt guilt, pressure, or confusion around how to feed your baby, this episode will bring clarity and reassurance. Because at the end of the day—fed is best.
