What are your thoughts about putting cereal in the bottle? My 6 week old can't get enough to eat lately, he constantly wants his bottle and screams till he gets one. I don't want to add much. I was thinking of adding a pinch of cereal to his 3oz bottle. I'm afraid to though, I hear good and bad about doing it. I just can't take another day of constant crying. He's never done this before, even swaddling, cuddling, and music isn't helping. He's not a fan of his binky and will use it once in a while.
Do what you think is best. My son was on cereal in his bottle at that age and he's doing fine. It's all in how you do it. We used a tablespoon of cereal per 3 ounces
My son still gets rice bottles Every now and again I started at 3 months with him and he was on reflux meds as well. I say it up to u try and it and just keep an on his bowel moments to make sure he isn't getting constipated
He's on reflux medication. I don't want to put a ton, just a tiny pinch in his 3 oz bottle. Just enough to fill his belly and help him sleep. He's up every half hour.
we use it for a thickener per hospital/doctor because my son aspirates & has gerd but thats all his doc recommends it for, id talk to a doctor 1st
I have to formula feed, I wasn't producing anymore. And I've upped it but its not helping, his pediatrition said not to feed him more then 4oz..
my son is 2 months. i gave him rice cereal and he's doing fine. its makes him much fuller.
it worked for us, but I only used a little at night, and she was formula fed if that helps you. and her doctor said it was fine since she was a little young to take it from a spoon.,
up his feeding first. hes probably going through a grow spout so he needs the extra milk.
I've never been a fan of cereal in a bottle, but for some mom's it's worked....
The AAP recommends nothing but formula or breastmilk until 6 months old. It can also be a choking hazard in bottles. It's a controversial topic because some moms swear by it but personally I would say if baby is asking for more milk feed more milk, not a filler like cereal. Are you breastfeeding or bottle feeding?
you should ask his doctor first because he could get constipated since he's still too young
I want to know if anyone added cereal or oatmeal to your baby's bottle. My little man gets lazy sometimes and doesn't want to eat his oatmeal so I give him his formula. He only drinks 6oz but that is not enough and he's hungry but won't drink more than 6oz per feeding so I was wondering if it is okay to put cereal/oatmeal in his bottle. What are your thoughts?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
So I need to vent because I can't post anything on Facebook or Snapchat about how irritated I am.
So my ex said that he plans on staying in the military for another 4-5 years or 8-10, he was really stepping on top of his words. He might got to NC, Italy, or Alaska but he definitely wants out of California. He said since he's going to school for family law he already knows what to do and how to do it about getting custody of our daughter. He said that if I don't agree to anything he wants, I'll ...
My husband and I can't agree on a name for a girl. The name he wants I hate but the name I want he actually likes but likes his better but it sucks. 😒 he's really about to piss me off with this
My son just turned 4 months and he eats a lot like 5 ounces every 2 - 3 hours is that bad ? Should I start introducing him to cereal ? He's on enfamil formula maybe mixing cereal in his milk will keep his tummy full for a longer time ? I don't want to be over feeding him , he also spits up a lot & sometimes I have a really hard time getting his gases out he randomly gets these tantrums out of nowhere because he has trapped gas & the only way he calms down is if I pick him up and walk around the ...
the rice cereal will bind the baby up and more then likely make em gassy if ur going to try cereal try the oatmeal cereal my mom says that works best and she has several children and babysits quite a few also
