Also WRT the food labelling - the only reason some foods state that they are suitable from 4months+ is because they are packaged overseas where the WHO recommendations haven't been adopted. There is no difference between the food that is labelled 4+ months and that labelled 6+ months except for the country where it was packaged. The WHO recommendations are that no solids are introduced before 6 months and the Australian guidelines are the same. This is very confusing for mums who see that on the label and think that some foods are actually ok before 6 months.
All of the Heinz baby food (some of which states from 4months+) is packaged in Echuca, VIC. I know everyone doesn't agree, but again if something shouldn't be used then it wouldn't be available. Or it would have a warning on the packet, which it does for under 4months. Again I wouldn't start before then but if you think they are ready I would stick to only what's available for that age.
