My name is Megan Garcia. I'm a mom of two and a practitioner of Chinese medicine, which uses tools like acupuncture, massage, food as medicine, and herbal blends. I also focus on infant microbiome development.
I'm so glad you're here!

Many times, baby tummy troubles come down to something called “food stagnation” in Chinese medicine.Â
🌟 Babies have inherently weak digestive energy. We can think about baby gut development here. So, it’s easy for things to stagnate.Â
Food stagnation can include breast milk, formula, or solids.Â
🌿 This 3 Spice Baby Digestion blend is a delicious addition to solids for your baby. And it eases gas, cramping, and bloating.Â
If you have the whole seed, try dry toasting first in a clean pan before grinding. This unlocks aromatics. And, in TCM, it adds an extra layer of gut-supportive warmth 🥰
FENNEL
Warming and known for its ability to ease pain. It has the added benefit of “regulating” Liver energy (littles have a surplus of this!)
CARDAMOM
Another warming spice that brings digestive comfort. Energetically, it moves downward. So it’s great for vomiting or nausea. Along with gas and tummy troubles. Â
CUMIN
A warming spice that promotes digestion and relieves gas.

While we *do* want to get texture in by 9 months old, it's not about purees vs finger foods...
Instead, the key is to feed your baby responsively 🔑
Think of it as an invitation to eat.
XXO!!
