Hello,

With my four children, solids started anywhere from 7 months to 1  
year.  No issues. I might add a little something about my personal  
experience from childhood. My mother informed me that I took a long  
time to feed (bottle). Even in the hospital, back in the 60's my mom  
was in for one week after birth, the nurses took their time feeding  
me. I did not start solids within that first year.  The doctor was not  
concerned as I was growing and meeting the milestones. I was shocked  
to learn that I was not able to eat table food until I was three years  
old!  Can you imagine if that were today? I do not think a doctor  
would be so "unconcerned."  :)      I do not know what the issue was.  
I know even as an adult, swallowing pills can give me trouble--and now  
I have major reflux, which I have been able to get under control  
without meds----stress is my biggest issue.  My doctor did not  
understand the difficulty of giving up coffee, tomatoes and wine. I am  
Italian you know!  :)    Anyway, once I did start eating "normal"  
food--definitely no issues!!!

Kind Regards,
Gloria Thai
Va.
