One of the things that no one told me before I became a mom is that I would be elbows deep in poop for several years.

Or you're worried about not pooping, where there's poop everywhere.

It's such a non-glamorous part of

Music is how to improve constipation. This is Feeding Toddlers Made Easy, the Mama Knows Nutrition podcast by me, Casey Barnes,

Registered Dietitian Nutritionists for Kids.

I'm a mom of two, and this podcast is the place to come when you've got those earbuds in

or you're driving in the car and you want some helpful, actionable, real life advice for toddler

nutrition. You can call the podcast voicemail anytime to leave a question for me to answer on a

future episode. The number is 469-552-5527, or you can catch that number on the website at momanosnutrition.com

forward slash podcast, as well as all the show notes for everything.

Everything that you need is there on the website.
