when do you introduce them? aka... when do they get anything but breastmilk/formula. I am clueless on the next step!

    our pedi said if she was showing signs of being ready we could start oatmeal or barley at 3.5 months mixed with bm.?

    We'll likely start solids at 6 months if not just a little after. I think we'll skip the cereal and go straight to veggies/fruits.

    Most pedi's reccomend 6 months to start solids.

    alot of people here seem to start early (around 4-5 months).  The American Acamdemy of Pediatrics says to start at 6 months.  Personally, we're going to wait until 6 months, skip the cereal and start with veggies/fruit.  I am most comfortable with that plan after all the reading/research I've done.

    I have also done a lot of research and reading and except for the WHO, I have read everywhere that solids should be started between 4 and 6 months and preferably no later than 6 months.  So, I wouldn't consider 4 months early but that's just my opinion.
