Starting Solids 101: Expert Advice for First Foods and Allergies

About this event:

A special thank you to Inglesina for helping make this conversation possible.

Starting solids is an exciting milestone—but it can also feel overwhelming. Between knowing when to start, deciding which foods to offer first, navigating allergens, and wondering what's "normal," it's no surprise so many parents have questions.

Join us for Starting Solids 101: Expert Advice for First Foods and Allergies, an evidence-based conversation designed to help parents confidently navigate one of baby's biggest firsts. From recognizing signs of readiness to introducing common allergens and building healthy eating habits from the very beginning, we'll cover what parents really need to know.

Moderated by Lily Walla, Founder & CEO of Auggie, this conversation features Kary Rappaport, OTR/L, MS, SCFES, IBCLC, Executive Director at Solid Starts, and Dr. Whitney Casares, MD, MPH, FAAP, board-certified pediatrician, founder of Modern Mommy Doc, contributor to the Baby Wellness Foundation, parenting expert, and author.

Together, we'll discuss:

Whether you're getting ready to introduce your baby's very first bite or you're already a few weeks into solids, you'll leave with practical, evidence-based guidance to help make mealtimes feel less stressful and a lot more enjoyable.
