Ok so DD is nearly 5.5 months old, and seems crazy eager for solids. Whenever I am eating, she can't take her eyes off my food, and she often tries to snatch at my spoon or cup as it nears my mouth. She also drools HEAPS during these events.
I am certainly going to wait till she is 6months at least before commencing BLS, but I'm keen to wait a bit longer, like maybe 7months.
BUT I heard that if you delay too long, they can lose interest and then it becomes a battle.
If she is already showing strong signs at this stage, if I delay more than 6months, could she lose interest by 7months? (She is very quick in everything, quick to roll, crawl, smile, laugh etc)
I guess what I'm asking is:

Do you guys agree that the symptoms I've described are signs of readiness?

Can I delay till she's 7months or do you think I should give it a start asap (at 6months)?
