I too was told by our GP that the new recommendation is from 4 months. I was really confused by this, so questioned her further as it was 6m when DD was a baby. I will have to follow up further next week when we see her again where she got this information from.

We started DS at 4m following her advice, but quickly stopped as he really wasn't ready for solids. I have been playing around with them about this last week or so, but i don't feel he is ready yet now either. So confusing. With DD it was easy, DS seems to be a whole new ball game.
