[quote=Anonymous]Waiting until one year is taking a risk IMO. There is a study out there somewhere (maybe done in the UK?) about how babies that don't get solids until after 1 year are more at risk for feeding disorders? I don't understand this fad at all. It's true, nutritionally, your child should be getting most of what they need from BM or formula, but they need to develop the skills to eat solid foods during this time. I can't even imagine not letting DS eat food. He's 7 months old and basically gobbles anything you put in front of him. We're doing the baby-led solids thing for the most part and he's just so dang excited to pick up food and try it. Maybe some babies aren't as interested, but I do think it's a matter of just offering until they are. I don't think it's wise NOT to offer. [/quote]
