Most parents worry about their child's eating at some point. Common concerns include picky eating in toddlerhood; sweet cravings and vegetable avoidance in the early school years; and dieting and worries about weight in the tween and teenage years. The Gentle Eating Book will help parents to understand their child's eating habits at each age. Starting from birth, the book covers how to start your child off with the most positive approach to eating, whether they are breast or bottle-fed.

For parents with toddlers and older children, Sarah includes advice on picky eating and food refusal, overeating, snacking and navigating eating at school, while parents of tweens and teens will find information on dieting, peer pressure, promoting a positive body image and preparing children for future eating independence. At each age The Gentle Eating Book will help parents to feed their child in a manner that will set up positive eating habits for life.

Definitive text on childhood eating
You are going to hear me refer to this book a LOT! I am becoming an even bigger fan of Sarah Ockwell-Smith with each new book she releases. But this Gentle Eating one is truly fantastic.
She takes you through every stage - including why and how we eat - from breastfeeding, breastmilk-feeding a formula-feeding, through introducing solids (including BLW) to selctive and picky toddler eating (and why a lot of that is perfectly normal) through school aged children and teens. She talks about parents own experiences around food and body image and how that can impact on our children and much more.
I have the audio book on the go in the car and bought the e-book as well so I can highlight and copy passages to share, because there is just so much evidence-based wisdom in here
