Breast to Bib
With a two-year-old and an almost ten-month-old, feeding babies is something I’ve thought about often in the last couple of years. Breast to Bib is full of great information regarding the all-important question of how and what babies should eat. And while when starting solids, our family’s general philosophy is to just feed the baby what we’re eating, the recipes included for babies and toddlers offer great inspiration and ideas to fall back on when what’s on the table isn’t the best for the littlest ones. I would recommend this book to any new mom!

I am a stay-at-home mom of two toddlers. I was single until the age of 37, so getting used to life as a married woman with children has been quite an adjustment! There are a few things that I struggle with as a new mom, and meal planning and nutrition would be near the top of my list! I have been very encouraged by most of Kate’s blog and the few books that I have gotten from her thus far! This book (Breast to Bib) is WONDERFUL!! Basic tips on feeding babies and toddlers, as well as some amazing recipes that I can be confident are healthier for our children. I am very thankful for the time that Kate takes to do research as well as experiment with new recipes, and that she is willing to share what she learns with so many others!

Breast to Bib is a book every expectant or new parent should read. It boldly stands up against conventional “wisdom” and reinforces what maternal instinct has been telling us for years. Well-meaning family, friends, strangers, and pediatricians are ripe with not only unscientific, but unhealthy advice about nursing, scheduling, weaning, and what to feed our babies. Breast to Bib offers the discerning parent a scientifically sound, natural approach to helping little ones thrive in an increasingly unnatural world. Whether you are expecting, already have babies and toddlers, or simply want to know why many of us parents won’t feed our children puffed rice and graham crackers, read this book. And if you ever feed my children, please read this book! It is smart, to the point, and spot on. The recipes are the icing on the cake.

Kate has done it again! Breast to Bib is THE book that every expecting and new mother simply must read! Kate clears up some of the misinformation floating around about breastfeeding, supplementing, weaning, and milk supply in a manner that even the most sleep deprived new mama can digest. She is supportive and practical giving the reader just enough information while not leaving out anything pertinent. Kate has also created a collection of recipes both for the newest eaters as well as those more preferential toddlers. These recipes are simple, use wholesome ingredients that any mama can easily obtain, and are appealing to the youngest of eaters. She mixes up tastes and textures without compromising quality. This book is long overdue and I am thrilled that Kate has been able to put together such a valuable resource.

I wish I had this book when my first child was born! Breast to Bib is full of knowledgeable, non-judgmental advice on breastfeeding, introducing solids and solving food allergy problems. Not only does Kate offer plenty of delicious recipes (that the whole family can eat) but, more importantly, she explains the why behind it all. This is the perfect resource for parents who want to be intentional about nourishing their little ones in the best way possible.

Three years ago, pregnant with my first child and handling two Army moves in 6 months, I flung myself into every bit of research I could find about baby nutrition. Believing myself to be a “healthy eater”, I was tremendously confused by information that was contradictory and downright confusing. Today’s mamas can avoid that confusion by utilizing Kate Tietje’s e-book Breast to Bib: Modern Alternative Mama’s Guide to Nourishing Your Growing Family. Filled with easy to understand explanations of nutritional science and practical recipes, Breast to Bib offers moms the knowledge they need to provide their babies with the best possible start. Both factual information and personal reflection is delivered in an approachable, lets-have-coffee-and-chat manner that makes a touchy, highly individual topic easier to process.
