Do you think baby is just having a growth spurt at an odd time? Baby isn't "really" 4 mo old but more like 2 mo old.....I'd be slow to start solids when baby is obviously growing fine on breast milk. Just as rest of baby is immature, so is digestive system. As for family and friends, please remind them that this baby has tripled birth weight in 4 mo which is really advanced :-) Sincerely, Pat in SNJ *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
