[quote=Anonymous]You should talk to your pediatrician, but I would strongly guess that the baby will not get all the nutrients needed just from breastmilk. For example, I believe that babies are born with a fair amount of iron that they take from their mom's, but that there is very little iron in breastmilk, so by the time they're getting solids, they're a bit depleted. That's why iron-fortified cereals are often recommended as an early food. Additionally, if he never get the chance to work on eating solids, he'll be missing out on major motor development. Another month, sure. But then he needs to start eating food, would be my strong suspicion. [/quote]
