This is interesting, Wendy.  If " it acknowledges that babies are exposed to 
allergens in their mothers milk", then surely exclusive breastfeeding would 
suffice as being exposed to small amounts of allergens?

My concern would be that the guidelines could so easily be distorted and all 
mothers advised to start giving solids routinely at 4 months - if a little 
is good then more must be better??
