We introduced solids around 4.5 months and LO wasn't ready for them at that age. It wasn't until about 6 months she got used to it and actually started eating.
Did you introduce before 4 months? Was there a reason you introduced early?

I tried once around 4.5 months because her Dr said it was ok but LO wasn't interested at all! We didn't try again until 6 months.

We just started to give our kids a slice of pear to suck on at 4 months. DS was looking interested when we ate fruit, so we let him try, and gave some to DD too to be fair They don't swallow anything other than a little juice and just kind of gnaw it. It was mostly a little treat for Thanksgiving, and I doubt we'll do it more than once a week. DS loved it though and whined for more!

LO is five months tomorrow and we haven't started yet. Our daycare provider did just ask if we are thinking about it because she thinks LO seems restless between bottles and is wondering if it's hunger, but I'm going to send in a bit more in her bottles instead, because I am not ready to start yet! I want to make it through the holidays!

We just started at four months. She seems interested in our food but not so interested in cereals and purees so she may not be eating regularly until six months.
I do know someone who started cereal from a spoon at two months and had been putting it in the bottle earlier.
