Ah, good advice ladies. Yes every mother has the right to do what is best for their child - but if you come on to a parenting forum asking for advice expect to get it....

The next section is base on my opinion and knowledge... 3m is too early. If your giving rice just to 'fill him up' you will deprive him of valuable nutrition that he gets from formula. At 3,4,5,6months they are still babies - they are meant to be unsettled from time to time and eat a little more one day and a little less on day. Not all babies are going to sleep through the night - hell my DD didn't until she was one.

Have a read through the research that has been provided to you - it's valuable to make an informed decision.

And my suggestion. If you would like to continue with solids - always offer the milk first, and then offer up some puréed vegetables.

And if your hubby was allergic to everything I would strongly suggest waiting to start anything and when you do, do it slowly with the information on what to do of anaplaxis or allergic reaction happens.
