Some older pediatricians recommend 4 months but the original reasoning had to do with how old formula wasn't very complete and babies actually needed vitamins from food, but couldn't actually eat, so they puréed it . <br /><br />Today's Formulas are complete enough that baby doesn't need solids at 4 months.

Breastfeeding isn't a reliable fork of birth control. And when it works best is when baby doesn't take a paci and comfort nurses on mom. <br /><br />Pull out method is a joke that I can't believe anyone over the age of 16 believes works - lol - its called the cowper's gland and it secretes semen before orgasm/penetration. <br /><br />Good luck! I feel you. Hubby isn't into condoms but he used one cause neither of us are wanting another baby. Especially not right now.

Our normal breakfasts are:<br />-eggs with sausage and cheese, toast and fresh fruit<br />-fruit and yogurt smoothies<br />-oatmeal with fresh or frozen fruit<br />-yogurt, toast and fresh fruit<br />-homemade waffles or pancakes and fresh fruit<br /><br />She loves helping stir the waffle mix and watch the colors on the waffle iron. Yogurt is harder to get her to eat - when she was little, I just got the big containers and made a bowl with yogurt and fruit.
