I definitely didn't want to start solids until 6 months but after serious weight gain issues & recommendation by a Paediatrician we started DS just over 4 months. He is now 5 months & weight is gaining well despite him only having a small amt of solids once a day and not every day (currently about 1 tbs steamed mashed pumpkin). My dilemma is that he seems to really enjoy it - he opens his mouth wide and eats it all up.

I know the guidelines are to complement bf after 6 months & a big part of me wants to cut out the solids & do this for the next month but there is another part of me that sees him enjoy eating that makes me want to keep going. I am not replacing any milk feeds just adding it in.

It is so confusing to know what is right here.
