Doctor said to start solids at 4 months??

Jeanette
We had his 4 month check up today and she said we can start him on rice cereal or a vegetable once a day. Everyone says its recommended to start at 6 months, but she said they now recommend 4 months. Im a ftm so im not sure about this stuff. Hes a big baby, 19 pounds, maybe thats why she said to start now??
