Starting solids

So after my run in with MIL that wants K to be eating cheeseburgers tomorrow ok I exaggerate, I started researching starting solid foods. I always said I didn't want to start anything until at least 6 months, but I didn't have any support behind it. One website I came across is wholesomebabyfood.com. It gives the American academy of pediatric, the World health organization and the center for disease control recommendations. Plus it has recipes for making your own food. I ended up getting the book on my kindle. I highly recommend both. The website is loaded with great info. The book has more recipes if you're wanting to make your own food. When are you/did you introduce solids?

    I started at 6 months with my DDs. I plan to do the same with DS. That site is a great resource.

    I started at 4 months with dd1. Partly because it was "exciting", partly because I felt like she was starving all the time, partly because I was uninformed. She had no issues, but I will be waiting until 6 months with L. This time it's mostly out of laziness. Food is way more work than just nursing her, lol.

    We started at 4 months with DS because that's what the pedi said and DS had no issues. I plan on doing the same with DD, mostly because we FF and she currently gets pear juice every day to keep her regular. I'd MUCH rather regulate her with real fruits and veggies than juice, even if the juice is real fruit juice. However, based on the chatter from all you wise mamas, I think we will be avoiding rice cereal this time. I'm sure it wouldn't help her pooping cause anyway.

    Actually, I think we started DS closer to 5 months. Our appt. times got pushed back because we had a blizzard when he was due for his 2 month appt. So he didn't have his "2 month" appt. til almost 3 months, and his "4 month" appt. wasn't til almost 5 months. And I wasn't going to start solids without the pedi's blessing.
