Often times there are roadblocks that get in the way of natural child development. These roadblocks are sometimes created by adults caring for children and are sometimes biological factors that go undetected. In this podcast series we will identify eight of the most common roadblocks and share strategies to address them. In this episode Lacy and Nicole discuss why babies suck and the recommended ages for weaning baby from the bottle and pacifier. Risks for not weaning baby when recommended are mentioned along with strategies on how to wean baby from the bottle and pacifier. When to introduce open cup and straw drinking is discussed along with why drinking from a sippy cup is not a developmental milestone. Be sure to listen to the first episode in this series, Roadblock #1 Lack of Tummy Time and look for the next six podcast episodes highlighting the other roadblocks to natural development: media and screen time exposure, missed diagnoses, undetected vision loss, undetected hearing loss, nutrition and allergies and over-parenting/a faulty sense of what's typical.
