Lola, I am in Ontario too ;D North York to be exact, and I went to this course with a Infant Nutritionist and she was the one who showed us the studies and her own info not to give meat before 9 months as they cannot digest it? I know on the jars and in all the baby books it says you can start at 6 months (I have tried with Ella before I saw the nutritionist). She says they simply cannot break down such complicated proteins before 8-9 months so no use to give it to them. I am going to try again with her as I have also heard to introduce as much as you can before 7-8 months as after that they cannot become pickier to introduce new things.

Hi! My baby is 6 months & at his appt. I was told it is ok to introduce meats now, but do not give more than 1 jar per day.  So, you can introduce it now but don't give too much as it is hard to break down the protein.  I wouldn't give more than 4 oz. per day. Hope that helps ;D
