Just wondering

So when Tatum was little the advice was not to start solids till 6 months. We started around 5 1/2 months and she did well. I was just wondering what is the advice now a days I know it's different from place to place.....Just wanted to get a feel for what everyone has been told and is doing.

general advice when ds was born was 6 months but i was advised by HV to start at 4.5 months due to reflux, but actually held out till 6 months because i felt he wasnt ready...........

My doctor told us 6mo with Dylan, and that's still what the World Health Organization recommends too :)
