Ditto to Donna and others regarding babies' readiness for solids! My
8 mont old (baby #3) learned to fend for herself at dinner time. But
of course, she was at the table with us and plenty of plates to grab
from.
Regarding the free formula - I too have donated it to animal shelters
and it was well received. Maybe that's a Florida thing, huh, Claire?
