Hi - my Alex was a big boy on breastfeeding and is just as big a solid eater now at nine months old. You can't argue with him when he's banging on the high chair wanting more food ! I started him with the baby cereal at four months, fruit at five months and veges and meat at 6 months. He has formula now and still has that about 1/2 an hour before the hard stuff. Apart from having excema from birth for a month or so, he's never seen a doctor.

Whats the link with babies and solids and mouth and speech development ?
