Nope, no upset tummy here. We started at 6 mths, DD wasn't much interested and we went with BLS. She really started eating at about 7-8 mths. Seems she knew better than I (or the books) when she was ready.
Actually, one of the reasonings behind BLS is that a baby's digestive system is ready for food other than bm between the ages of 6 and 9 mths. That's quite a range!
Solids made DS1 reflux worse, worse because he was now bringing up the solids as well as milk feeds, not worse in the pain sector. But no upset tummy or anything. He started with mushy stuff.
DS2 started with mushy stuff but much preferred to feed himself, by 7 months he was BLS. No upset tummy and his reflux had been cleared up for about 2 months prior to starting solids.
