[blparent] new babies

[Anjelina]

I'm not going to worry about solids so much. She's still nursing and her doc 
didn't seem to concerned about her weight gain. I've heard from many other 
parents and read articles that say solids or baby food in the first year is 
mostly for exploration not so much for the nutrients. She'll get the hang of 
it soon enough.
