#306: Does the term “picky eating” make your skin crawl? My guest Stephanie Cohen, MS, CCC-SLP, CLC isn’t a fan of it either - but picky eating IS something parents ask about and as a feeding therapist, she has thoughts. In this episode Stephanie is sharing some easy ways we can foster independence at mealtimes even from our babies’ first bites.
