Lesley Robinson- There was a study done recently (I'll have to look for reference, hope someone else has it too) that says anemia and weight loss were not found as suspected if solids introduced at 8-9 months, rather than at 6. I'll bet they saw too many BF babies starting solids late (as so many do) to ignore, thinking "surely these babies are lacking something" and found out they are not! I have my own theories as to why BF babies don't like mushy baby food. Lechia Davis, RNC, ACCE, IBCLC
