Well, I will put in my two cents, though I have said this before.  The
appropriate time for the vast majority of infants to start eating is when
they start taking food from their parents plates and try to eat it (usually
about 5 to 6 months of age).  I can't believe that any research, whatever it
says, is better than the baby's instinct and interest.  There is nothing
magical about 4 or 5 or 6 months. This hangup on numbers is killing us.
