Hellobee Boards

We were ebf until 9.5 months!! P just wasnt into them & with as many moms of early "self-weaners" I've talked too I was in no rush. As long as she's still growing there really is no reason to worry or push solids!

Kellymom has a great post on delaying solids!

She also has a good handful of other write ups concerning solids, just search the site.

I wasn't able to EBF, but even being on the bottle, we let both kids take to solids at their own pace and when they decided they were ready, it went so easy. Both kids were about 9-10 months when they figured it out.

@sloaneandpuffy: I occasionally offered but not really. I started trying more after 9 months because we got so much flack from our pedi (actually got fired from him over it) but even then I refused to let myself stress over it. I continued reading up on it & solidifying that P was fine how she was. She eats great now at 12 months!.... I've actually spoken with moms that their babes still aren't good eaters as 13-15 mth olds!

@sloaneandpuffy: Kinda just if they acted interested or we were eating something that made a good finger food and was easily mushable for them. I'd try spoon-feeding every few weeks and it was a night and day difference between not getting it and then totally getting it.
