Lauren and Mason do indeed share a birthday! He was born at 9:15 PM in Evanston Hospital, near Chicago. It was snowing... 9 lb, 9oz. He is 17.5 lbs now and all full of cute rolls!
I hate to be pushy, but I would have your husband do his own research before just following doctor's orders. If he has such a strong opinion about it, I would expect him to at least be well informed. Does your doctor have some reason why he wants your child to have solids now? I am sure it won't be the end of the world if you continue down this path, but there really is not a good reason to change what was working well either.
Remember, you are the mom and most likely to know what is right for your child. Follow your instinct and listen to the signals your LO is sending. Who knew this parenting thing would be so challenging?
Best,
Laurie (short for Lauren!)
