hi my baby was 9lb when he was born andalways liked his milk. hes not greedy though he'l only drink what he wants like somtimes hel take 6oz and sometimes he'l take 8oz. hes now 4 months. when he was 3 months he got thrush and went off his bottles this then cleared but he then had a cold so was still off his bottles like only taking 4 oz. then he got better and wanted 8 oz every 2 hours so my midwife suggested some solids which might help and also get him back in to his routine of sleeping all night. he ate the food and liked it and it seemed to go well but no change in the sleep dept still waking at all hours....then he developed thrush again which was from the antibiotics for his cold so i stopped the solids and he didnt seem to miss them.

hes now fully better and happy and i havnt given him any solids since i stopped it (bear in mind he was only on them for about a week) but...hes still not sleeping all night like he used to

all my family say start him back on solids and all the medical people say if you can wait till 6 months

im in between here i dont want to start now if i dont have to but im not gonna wait till 6 months either

what do you all think
