Unfortunately you have been misinformed by your health care provider. They should be going by the National health and Medical Research Council guidelines which were released in just March this year after an extensive period of revision, discussion and research on the latest evidence. Solids should start around 6 mnths. If you have the opportunity, please let them know that they are giving their clients incorrect information
