A History of the 100 First Foods Approach to Starting Solid Foods with Baby-Led Weaning

Rula (0s):

I don't want to pile on, but being a mom and a new parent is not for the faint of heart. All of a sudden you have this tiny person who's totally dependent on you and you are 24/7 fixated on keeping all the balls in the air with parenting and work and relationship. It's a lot. And we all know that periods of burnout or stress or anxiety take a toll on your mental health. And while high quality therapy can help with stressful situations, finding a provider that your insurance actually pays for is a challenge. Rula is changing the game when it comes to finding the right therapist for you. That's in network covered care for most insurance providers because we've all used insurance to cover our physical health, right? So why shouldn't also it cover our mental health?

So tell me how you're doing with the allergenic foods for your babies. 'cause there are nine foods that account for about 90% of food allergy in North America. We call these the top nine allergenic foods. And you want your baby to eat those top nine foods early and often. Preferably we wanna get them all in before your baby turns 11 months of age. And that's how we help lower your baby's risk of food allergy down the road.

Puffworks (2m 14s):

So when it comes to peanut and tree nut, I think the easiest, definitely the most low mess and no stress way to introduce your baby to peanut and tree nut protein is by using the Puff Works baby peanut puffs. Now I love the Puff Works baby peanut puffs. They also make a tree nut puff. So I do the peanut puffs first because they only have peanut and then after a few days of trying those. So once I'm sure that the baby does not have a peanut allergy, then I'll introduce the Puff Works baby almond puffs. So those have almond, that's a tree nut, that's a separate allergen. And the almond ones also have peanut in them. So you're reintroducing that protein. Again, you wanna be doing these foods early and often. So puff works, baby puffs are the softest puffs on the market. They dissolve so easily in your baby's mouth and you can start these even before your baby has teeth. They make great snacks for babies. I'm actually working with a family where the parents are huge into pickleball. So I just sent them a combo case of the Puff Works baby puff. So it's half peanut puff bags and then half baby almond bags. So they can just take a bag or two along with them to pickleball and keep a reintroducing those all important peanut and tree nut proteins for their baby. So you can get 15% off all the PuffWorks, baby peanut and almond puffs for your family when you shop using the affiliate discount code BLWPOD @puffworks.com. The code is BLWPOD @puffworks.com.

And if we take a typical baby who's been spoonfed up until age one, they have at most 10, sometimes 12 foods under their belt by the time they turn one. And then if you factor into that, the reality that most children will experience some degree of picky eating by the time they turn one. Okay. And if you lose those 10 or 12 foods to picky eating, that becomes a very challenging child to feed right? Those are the children my colleagues in feeding therapy. See, but if your baby has, I don't know, let's say a hundred foods under their belt, by the time they turn one and you lose 10 or 12 of those foods to pick a eating, you still have like 88 or 90 foods that your baby will eat.

Katie Ferraro (4m 21s):

That's the key to doing Baby-Led Weaning successfully. It's helping your baby achieve that diet diversity whereby they will learn to like and accept a wide variety of foods when that all important flavor window is open. Hey there, I'm Katie Ferraro, registered dietitian, college nutrition professor and mom of seven specializing in Baby-Led Weaning. Here on the Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro podcast. I help you strip out all of the noise and nonsense about feeding, giving you the confidence and knowledge you need to give your baby a safe start to solid foods using Baby-Led Weaning.

Katie Ferraro (5m 2s):

Alright, well hello, welcome back. Maybe you're wondering what's the big deal about my baby trying to eat a hundred foods before they turn one? Does it really matter? Is a hundred a magic number? Who made up this whole idea? Well, in today's episode I'm gonna share with you the history of the 100 First Foods approach to starting solid foods. How this whole idea came about, how it got to be kind of a global phenomenon and a thing that parents do and why I think it's certainly the most fun, but also the easiest way to get your baby to actually like eating real food and all the heartache and the time and the money that it's gonna save you down the road. If you're considering doing Baby-Led Weaning, I think it's the easiest way to help your baby achieve diet diversity.

Katie Ferraro (5m 45s):

So hello, I'm Katie Ferraro, I'm a registered dietitian, I'm a mom of seven. I specialize in starting solid foods and Baby-Led Weaning. And back in 2016 I created the original 100 First Foods approach to starting solid foods. So when my oldest daughter was born or my first child, she was my only child at the time, I literally had no idea how to feed a baby. I mean I was a dietitian at the time. I was working like 80 hour weeks because we did fertility. I was not able to conceive the cheap natural fashioned way. So I was saving all my money working like crazy and we were trying to conceive with fertility. So we'd done IVF with our first daughter when she started Solid foods or when she was like four or five months of age, the doctor was like, you know, start iron fortified white rice cereal.

Katie Ferraro (6m 30s):

And I was like, well she can't even sit up yet, but like okay, whatever. So we started purees and I remember it being this like absolutely disaster of an experience. Like my daughter hated being spoonfed, she hated purees. It got to the point where I literally thought she hated me. Our mealtimes turned into this downright battleground. I felt like such an abject failure as a mom because like what sort of mom can't feed her own baby? And I'm like, what sort of dietician? Mom can't feed your baby at that. So at the height of our feeding frustration, we were doing all this fertility business, my husband and I found out that I was pregnant. I hate when people say we were pregnant, he was not pregnant. I was pregnant and I was pregnant with quadruplets. Now we had been doing fertility so I knew the potential for multiples were there.

Katie Ferraro (7m 10s):

We were not expecting quadruplets. I remember the first thing that I thought when I saw those four babies on the ultrasound was, how am I gonna feed four babies at once when I can't even feed the one baby that I have at home right now? So fast forward, our quadruplets were born at 34 weeks, which is such a miracle. They spent the first part of their life in the NICU growing and getting stronger. And I had this colleague who was also a dietician who her baby was the same age as my oldest and she was like, how's feeding your oldest going back at home? And I was like, actually terrible. She hates food. She only wants her bottles. I'm a terrible mom. I literally don't know how to feed her food. And this colleague was like, well why don't you do baby-led weaning? And I was like Baby-Led Weaning. What are you talking about? Just like Baby-Led Weaning is this approach where you wait until the baby can sit up on their own and they're showing you the signs of readiness to eat and then you make finger foods and the baby feeds themselves.

Katie Ferraro (7m 60s):

The baby doesn't have picky eating. There's no, you know, short order of cooking and making separate foods. There's no mealtime battles. And I was like, whoa, this sounds like literally the answer to all my prayers and it also sounds like it's too good to be true. So at the time, I'm a college nutrition professor and I was teaching and I was like asking my colleagues like, is this Baby-Led Weaning thing real? And they're like, yes, there's actually some real incredible body of research that supports Baby-Led Weaning as a safe and effective alternative to conventional or adult-led spoonfeeding. And I was like, Hmm, well I gotta throw myself into reading everything I can about it. I came across Gill Rapley book. Gill is the founding philosopher, the pioneer of Baby-Led Weaning. I read her book cover to cover and when it came time for the quadruplets to start solid foods, I'm like, we are going to do Baby-Led Weaning all in.

Katie Ferraro (8m 45s):

Except I had no idea what that meant, but I figured it out. We started solid foods, I was like, I'm just gonna feed them one new food a day. I don't care if they don't eat it, I don't care if I make it wrong. And I did make it wrong most of the time and they gagged on food a lot and I thought they were gonna choke and die some days and there was a lot of tears and a lot of heartache. But I stuck with it. I did one new food every day and eventually the quads started to get the hang of it. And I have to say that using the Baby-Led Weaning approach to start solid foods was such a more positive foray into foods. It was such a transformational experience for our family. Like we actually had fun with feeding these babies four babies at once. 'cause I did not have the time or the bandwidth to like figure out how to spoonfeed four babies and I wasn't gonna do that.

Katie Ferraro (9m 28s):

And it was such a transformational experience that I actually shifted the entire focus of my entire nutrition career. And I started teaching Baby-Led Weaning full time. So at that time, this is back like in 2016, this is like peak Instagram culture like oversharing Central. And at that time I did have a pretty sizable Instagram following because I had four babies at once and I was like posting everything about them. Basically five little kids at home, a lot of time in my hands. And as they were trying new foods, I was just posting all them. People were like, how do you do Baby-Led Weaning? How are you figuring out these foods? I'm like, I don't know. I'm a dietitian. I'm just figuring out how to make it. How'd you make the zucchini muffins? So here's How I made the zucchini muffins. Oh that didn't work out. Here's How I tweaked it. Oh that had too much salt. So here's how you make it without the salt. The long and the short of it is when the quads turned one just before that our account was approaching, I had a family account.

Katie Ferraro (10m 14s):

I did not have a baby-led weaning account at that time our family account was approaching a hundred thousand followers. This is back in the day where you would like get a a balloon like 100 to celebrate a 100k. It seems like so cheesy now, but still we did it. And I was like what am I gonna do to celebrate a 100K on my account? And this is like before I had like management, like I was literally just a mom at home with a bunch of babies and I was like, oh, I'm gonna count the number of foods they had before the babies turned one. I realized they had eaten more than a hundred foods. And that's kind of when the light bulb went on for me. Like oh my gosh. Like with this approach Baby-Led Weaning where you just make modified versions of the same foods the rest of your family is eating, these babies ate more than a 100 foods.

Katie Ferraro (10m 54s):

And if you go to your grocery store, go to Walmart, that's the grocery store in my town in southern California with the greatest selection of quote unquote baby foods. There are no more than 10 different types of food that you can buy in pureed form. So if you think about it, your typical spooned baby, if they just have purees, they're going to have at most 10 or maybe 12 different foods under their belt by the time they turn one. And any one of you out there who's ever had a 1-year-old, you know that by the time a kid turns one, there's gonna be some degree of picky eating that sets in, right? Toddlers develop picky eating, it's developmentally appropriate. Okay, picky eating you guys is not a problem to be fixed. And so if you have a 1-year-old who only has 10 or 12 foods under their belt and then you lose those 10 or 12 foods to picky eating, that becomes a very challenging child to feed, right?

Katie Ferraro (11m 42s):

But if your baby has, I don't know, let's say a hundred foods under their belt and you lose 10 or 15 of those foods to picky eating, you still have 85 or 90 foods that the baby will eat, right? And that was the light bulb moment for me. It's like I'm not bragging about all the foods my kid can eat. Okay, at this point I definitely do because they freaking still pretty much eat anything. But at the time I was like, this is the answer. Like I looked around at all my friends that were like buying these pouches and these puffs and like making all these special foods for their babies or like going to a restaurant and stressing out because they didn't know if their food baby was going to eat the food or like literally having these mealtime meltdowns because their toddlers didn't know how to eat certain foods. And I was like, dude, Baby-Led Weaning is the dream because by 1-year-old our kids can eat a hundred different foods and now they're eating modified versions of the same foods the rest of the family eats.

Katie Ferraro (12m 33s):

That's like it's big family stuff 101, but it works even if you don't have a big family. Hey we're gonna take a quick break, but I'll be right back.

OSEA (12m 45s):

My oldest girls are just coming into the age where they're now interested in skincare and I've had to kind of start hoarding some of my favorite products. I recently began using OSEA Undaria algae body oil. So it officially earned a spot on my bathroom counter, but now I have to hide it in my drawer because the girls are after it. I wasn't really a body oil person before, but this one has completely changed my mind. It's rich and hydrating but still like somehow super lightweight, never greasy. It soaks in fast and makes my skin feel noticeably softer. That like silky healthy kind of glow, kind of soft that I guess everybody is after, including middle school girls. But the secret is seaweed because OSEA uses a specific type of seaweed called undaria seaweed. It's full of vitamins and minerals and antioxidant. It helps your skin feel more firm, smooth and just better. So seaweed is a nutrient-dense superfood, which I know as a dietitian and it's packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, but it also helps replenish your skin's moisture barrier and helps your skin stay looking healthy. Now I love that I'm using a product that's not only high performing. It totally aligns with my values because OSEA is vegan, cruelty free, it's climate neutral certified. They even harvest their seaweed sustainably, which just makes me feel good about what I'm putting on my skin because as a dietitian I'm a big proponent of like what you put on your body is just as important as what you put in your body. And I was FaceTiming with my brother who, I mean I love him to death, but he literally never says anything nice in New York. And he was told me, he's like, are you doing something different with your skin? It looks really good. Well first he said, did you get a new phone because your skin looks really good. But I think what he really meant was my skin looks really good. You can get healthy glowing skin for summer with clean vegan skin and body care from OSEA. You get 10% off your first order Sitewide with the code weaning when you go to OSEA malibu.com you get free samples with every order, which is so cool. And free shipping on orders over $50.

Katie Ferraro (14m 56s):

So when the quads were one and a half, my husband and I were like, well I was pretty much like, I don't feel done. I'm from a family of six, I like symmetry. I was like, do you wanna have one more? I don't feel done. He's like, yeah sure. There were two embryos left. We're like, let's transfer and see what happens. We got twins. So our youngest twins, Gus and Hannah were born. We had seven children, three and under for a while there. Do not recommend, but we did it somehow it was so chaotic but so much fun. But at that time when Gus and Hannah started Solid Foods, I had already been teaching baby Led Weaning full time. I kind of started this idea of the hundred First Foods program. I basically like had soft launched it as a program just to see if it would work. But I really fine tuned the whole approach with Gus and Hannah. And at that point I was like okay, I don't want this to be about my babies.

Katie Ferraro (15m 38s):

Like I really wanna focus on helping other people's families start solid foods and get their babies to this a 100 First Foods mark. We better tested it with a whole bunch of families. They were like, this works for children all over the world. But we had a hundred First Foods list. We kind of swapped out certain foods and the approaches to make it, this is like early in the days of like course creation too. I literally had like PowerPoint slides with narration behind it. I still have them, they're pretty bad. But it was working. It was a viable product. People were buying it. Like I enjoyed teaching. It was like early days of Facebook Live. It was like, I remember like trying to get the babies down for a nap and go like stream into my Facebook group real quick like before they'd wake up to teach about, you know, how to make like you know, buckwheat safer babies or whatever the case may be. It was super fun.

Katie Ferraro (16m 18s):

And then the twins started solid foods. That's when I was like I'm gonna start my own Baby-Led Weaning account and I want to grow it to be bigger than my family account. That was my goal. So I think my family account was like, I dunno 120 k at the time, it was really slow at the beginning. But with the twins I decided I was gonna post three times a day on Instagram and for the one new food each day that they were eating. So I was like for a hundred days I'm gonna post three times a day. So first 300 posts were already set for me. I do five new foods a week. So I have my five step feeding framework. So every week we offer five new foods. So if you have my 100 First Foods list on Monday we do a new fruit on Tuesday we do a new vegetable. On Wednesday we do a new starch. On Thursday we do a new protein and on Friday we do a new allergenic food. So I was following my own program which was very eye-opening 'cause it's like that recipe stinks, this one's better, this one doesn't work for babies this early, this one's too easy, this one's too hard.

Katie Ferraro (17m 6s):

It's kind of just like working out all the kinks of the program. Five new foods a week, 20 foods a month. In five short months, those babies had eaten a 100 foods and that's when it really started to take off. That account really took off and this was like back in the day when you could grow an Instagram account literally from the hashtag a 100 First Foods. So the 100 First Foods program, which I started in 2016 really kind of started to take off around 2018. And that's when that account Baby-Led Weaning team, which I called it because I love a pun and I love rhyming, which is kind of a dumb name for an Instagram account because people think I have like a big team. So like Dear Katie and team, I was like, especially for the first few years, it was literally just me. I have a few people help me at this point.

Katie Ferraro (17m 46s):

Mostly contractors, it's still mostly me. I do have someone who helps me with my contact thankfully, so I don't have to spend as much time on Instagram as I used to. But in the time since then, the program has really grown. So it's kind of taken off as this global phenomenon where families all over the world help their babies learn to eat a hundred foods before they turn one. And one thing that I always thought about was like this idea of we celebrate like all of this really asinine stuff in baby culture, but we don't celebrate the transition to solid foods. And we certainly don't celebrate a lot of the milestones around family food culture. Like personally after college I was a Peace Corps volunteer in Nepal. So when I lived in Nepal I lived in a predominantly, it's a Hindu country and I lived in a Hindu community and I got invited to so many rice feeding ceremonies, rice feeding ceremonies.

Katie Ferraro (18m 34s):

When a baby started solid foods around the six month mark you would get invited to someone's house and then they would celebrate the offering of the first rice, the first solid food for the baby. And I was like, dude, this is cool. Like in our culture we don't have like a party to celebrate a baby eating food. Like we don't celebrate this idea of like transitioning from infant milk to solid foods. And so the whole kind of basis behind the 100 First Foods approach is to make feeding your baby fun and to make family mealtime fun again because right food is so fraught and for a lot of the families in our program we've had you know, very deep conversations with a lot of the parents. It's mostly moms in our program. But like you know, they'll say, Katie, I'm a very picky eater or I don't want my child to be a picky eater. Or I have an eating disorder, I've struggled with disordered eating and I don't want to project my, you know, food insecurities onto my baby.

Katie Ferraro (19m 19s):

And if you think about your baby, right, they start at six months of age where a hundred percent of their nutrition is coming from infant milk. That's breast milk and or formula. And you fast forward to the one year mark where most of your baby's nutrition can be coming from food, okay? That's a pretty cool transition that your baby's making in a relatively short period of time. But what's cool about that is that weaning period, that period of time between six and 12 months, it also overlaps with the flavor window. So the flavor window is this short period of time where your baby will like and accept a wide variety of foods. And I remember when the quads were doing baby Led Weaning, my mom would come over, my mom is also a registered dietician, my mom is a mom of six kids, I'm the oldest.

Katie Ferraro (19m 60s):

My mom to this day thinks it's pretty asinine that I have an entire business focused on helping parents learn how like to help babies eat real food. 'cause she's like anybody with a lot of kids knows like by the second kid, the baby just picks the food up off the plate and eats it themselves. And I'm like, mom, you are not functioning in today's parenting environment where parents have so much anxiety surrounding everything. There's too much information, it's information overload. Like parents are paralyzed by making decisions like do I do avocado, banana, or sweet potato first? So she was kind of like chastising Baby-Led Weaning, I think I might say She was not a huge fan of it at the beginning. And I remember being like, you know, this baby led weaning thing is fine Katie, but eventually they're gonna like have to learn how to eat with something other than their hands. She was kind of snaring on Baby-Led Weaning off and on. But I was like, I need the help.

Katie Ferraro (20m 40s):

So I'll just kind of like let her say her thing. I remember the day I caught her on the phone talking to her best friend and she was talking about my daughter Claire. So my quads are three boys and a girl and she was like to her friend, oh my gosh, you should have seen what Claire was eating. She was eating sardines and she was eating beets and she was like bragging on her granddaughter who's eating all of these amazing finger foods. And I love when the grandparents get on board with Baby-Led Weaning. To this day it's one of my, I do so much work with grandparents because like to turn the grandparents onto Baby-Led Weaning for me is one of the greatest, greatest things. And a lot of times the grandparents have a lot of time if they're working with your babies to help you. So in the last, I dunno how many years, it's almost been 10 years at this point that we've been doing this program, it has been so fun to see families fall in love with helping their babies learn to eat solid foods.

Katie Ferraro (21m 26s):

So the whole point of the 100 FIRST FOODS program is to help your baby safely learn how to eat a hundred foods before they turn one. And it's funny 'cause every, I have a digital program where we have a 100 FIRST FOODS content library, it has recipes and instructions and videos and it shows you how to make all the foods on the 100 First Foods list safe for your baby. And I've always worked with families, you know, you pick the five foods that work for your family for this week, a lot of families sit down on Sunday and they pick out the recipes, they get the shopping list, you know, they, they figure it all out for the week. And a couple of years ago, like enough parents were like, Katie, that's great but I don't wanna pick the five foods each week. Can you just tell me which food to feed my baby in which order? And I never ever wanted this program to be prescriptive because honestly it does not matter if you feed your baby buckwheat before beets or beets before.

Katie Ferraro (22m 11s):

Like it doesn't matter. But I get it that there's a lot of families that really do like a set program to follow. So a few years ago we launched the 100 FIRST FOODS Daily Meal Plan. It's a set of 20 weeks of meal plans, literally meal by meal, day by day done for you, okay to get you from food one to food 100 so that your baby can safely do these a hundred foods before they turn one dependent upon what time of learner you are. If your child goes to daycare, if you're a working family, we have made this work for all sorts of families. Even if you're making the switch from purees, even if you feel like you're getting a little bit of it late start, your baby certainly can get caught up and they can learn to eat a hundred foods before they turn one. And the benefits are so numerous.

Katie Ferraro (22m 52s):

We've had, I had a mom the other day, she told me, she said this was the best decision that I made in the first year of being a parent. The decision to do a hundred foods before turning one. And I work with a lot of business coaches and the majority of them have told me over the years, you should have a toddler program, you should have a a school age program, you should have a picky eating program. And it's like, no, if you do the a 100 First Foods approach, I don't need a picky eating program. I don't need a toddler program. If your baby learns to eat a hundred foods before they turn one, that's success. Your baby's eating foods with the rest of the family. There is no severe picky eating. You don't need to pay for feeding therapy, you don't have to go buy special foods, you don't have mealtime battles, you are not short order cooking.

Katie Ferraro (23m 34s):

You don't stress out about going to restaurants 'cause you don't know if your child will eat real food. So I firmly believe that the easiest way to help your baby achieve diet diversity is to get them to eat a hundred foods. The reality is we know as parents that wholesome real foods don't just magically show up on the table. I've had companies approach me and like, let's package all the foods up and let's ship it to families' houses. And I'm like, yeah, we could do that. But at the end of the day, you know, Baby-Led Weaning is about the baby leading the way as far as the eating experience goes. But it really is on us as the parents and caregivers to be the ones who are providing the wholesome real foods for that child to eat. So my job as a dietitian is to help parents learn how to make those foods safe for their baby's age and stage.

Katie Ferraro (24m 15s):

And I think the easiest way to do that is by doing one new food a day, five days a week you do 20 foods in a month and in five short months your baby has eaten a hundred foods. So the original a 100 FIRST FOODS program since 2016, if you don't yet have a copy of my original a 100 First Foods list, the best place to get started if you're just new to this whole idea of baby Led Weaning is my free online workshop. It's called BABY-LED WEANING FOR BEGINNERS. This is a workshop where I'm actually gonna show you how to prep the food safely for your baby's age and stage. We'll go through the history of baby-led weaning, what it is, what it is not. 'cause so many people don't really understand what Baby-Led Weaning is or they misunderstand what it is.

Katie Ferraro (24m 56s):

So in this workshop I'll show you how to do Baby-Led Weaning safely. And I give everybody on that free workshop a copy of my original 100 FIRST FOODS list. And if you already have the 100 FIRST FOODS list and you're ready to make the jump into making all of those foods safe for your baby, if you are tired of hunting and pecking around the internet or looking on AI to figure out how to make the foods safe, I would love if you could join me inside of my program. It's called Baby Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro. That's where all the 100 FIRST FOODS videos and recipes and instructions are, as well as that 100 First Foods Daily Meal Plan. If you just want me to show you exactly what food to feed your baby, it's a super fun, very, very easy to digest program.

Katie Ferraro (25m 36s):

You do one new food a day, I will help you so that by the time your baby turns one a hundred percent of their nutrition can be coming from food and you don't have to stress about what food to feed your baby next 'cause your baby's gonna eat a hundred foods. We're also gonna do other stuff like introduce them to all the allergens. I'll help you learn how to get your baby off the bottle by one so that they're drinking out of an open cup. And we're gonna have a ton of fun doing it as well. So congratulations to all of those babies who are coming up on their 100 First Foods, mark. And if your baby is about to start solid Foods, I hope you will consider doing the 100 FIRST FOODS approach. I think it's the absolute easiest, certainly the most fun, and definitely a safe way to start solid Foods with Weaning.

Hey, Ryan Reynolds here from Mint Mobile. Now, I don't know if you've heard, but Mint's Premium Wireless is $15 a month, but I'd like to offer one other perk. We have no stores. That means no small talk, crazy weather we're having. No, it's not, it's, it's just weather. It is an introvert's dream. Give it a try at mid mobile.com/switch. Upfront payment of $45 for three month plan. $15 per month equivalent required. New customer offers first three months only then full price. Plan options available, taxes fees, extra semen mobile.com.
