In 'Alternative parenting' I think?
We started one week before 6 months as met the readiness targets (hand to mouthing everything, sitting up ETC) We are totally loving it! gettign there slowly but surely, OH totally loves it too. was bit worried about my familes reactions but they've been very suportive (in the end)
may as well try it? that was our outlook and if we thought it really wasn;t going to work we could always change to spoon feeding.
Good luck! x
