Might be of interest - http://www.kellymom.com/nutrition/solids/delay-solids.html

Basically says which organisations have recommended exclusive BF / formula until 6 months and THEN introducing solids. And explains why.

Here's the World Health Organisation's: http://www.who.int/features/factfiles/nutrition/facts/en/index5.html & http://www.who.int/nutrition/topics/exclusive_breastfeeding/en/ (1st para).

In the UK, 6 months BM / formula is the recommendation. But then we get 9 months statutory maternity leave, so that helps!
