The AAP's policy statement still recommends the introduction of 
solid/complimentary foods "gradually beginning around 6 months", NOT before 
6 months. 

This is the policy statement put forth by the section on breastfeeding.  Is 
there a separate section on nutrition and if so, are the two committees now 
contradicting each other?
