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.

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

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

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.

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.,

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?

danad269 @badadvicemom, is anything safe these days? Nope can't even go to school and be safe or church!
