Re: When did you give solids?
I'm going to bow out of this thread as it is for BF support, but I've stated my own experience of co-sleeping in the thread about the credentials around the what to expect books. See you there.

Re: When did you give solids?
1st baby I started at 6 months
2nd baby same 3rd around 5months maybe sooner 4th around 5months I did BF all of them too. With my last one I had to quit bfding due to medical reasons. She is doing very well with formula and solids now. My 3rd baby was introduced sooner than the first 2 and she eats pretty much anything. My first 2 are very picky. I think introducing solids at 6 months or sooner has worked best for us, but that's just in my thoughts on it. ![]() |

Re: When did you give solids?
So this is a little off topic, but I have to say my
![]() The "What to Expect" books have been around a long time. They have gone through numerous revisions as times have changed and more research has come out regarding all sorts of baby related issues. If you happen to have read an older edition, you will find all sorts of things that don't "jive" with the current trends and research. The newer ones do have "better" information. ![]() As for co sleeping, I know that isn't what this thread is about, but again, my ![]() Anywho, we are all doing our best as parents. There is not a "one size fits all" mold we can conform ourselves to. ![]() ![]()

I also have to disagree with your assessment of co-sleeping, but will not bring that up in this thread since it is about starting solids. But there are MANY studies that promote safe co-sleeping--one of your mistakes was having blankets around your baby in the first place.

That is also your (unoducks or whatever) opinion. RESEARCH shows that SAFE CO-SLEEPING (ie - not covering your baby with blankets, not drinking/doing drugs, not severly overweight) is very safe AND helps the child very much! We always have and always will co-sleep! ![]()
