Episode 38: Talking about food and sleep with Lucy Neary
Lucy Neary AKA The Early Years Dietitian is a registered dietitian specialising in early years nutrition.
She’s on a mission to eliminate outdated and widespread feeding myths and turn the next generation into enthusiastic eaters with a healthy relationship to food.
I really love Lucy’s approach to infant feeding and nutrition and I really hope you do too!
Tune into this episode and together, we’ll talk you through:
Is focusing on food the key to a settled night's sleep?
How important is the relationship between food and sleep?
When to worry about how much they’re eating
Do dream feeds really help them to sleep better and for longer?
Do formula-fed babies sleep better? ( spoiler.. they don’t!)
When do night feeds need to stop?
Night weaning
Why dropping night feeds isn’t linear
What’s the best time for dinner
Are there any foods to avoid at dinner time?
And so much more!
