Hmmmmm that is interesting. I had thought that solids wouldn't be the be all and end all when it comes to settling more at night so it is nice to have that confirmed. So, if I did give in to pressure from DH and offered her some finger food, if she isn't ready for it, she won't do anything with it? Is that correct? Because I really do not think she is and my SIL (whose advice I trust, she is also very into bls) agrees with me. Unlike my MIL who thinks she needs it because of her size (about 7.5kg) even though she barely sees G and hasn't seen her long enough in one go to draw any sort of conclusion. But that is a whole new thread in itself.
