When starting oatmeal, how often do I give it to her and how much? When do I start gradually increasing the amount? Do I keep giving her the same amount of formula before and then the oatmeal? I tried asking her pediatrician but she wasn't any help..

you're not an idiot! I gave my son oatmeal at about 4 months old and then fruits and veggies around 6 months old. I filled the top with oatmeal and poured it into a bowl, added formula or water and made sure it was a little thicker and fed it to him. sometimes I heated it, he liked it warm for some odd reason lol and sometimes I put it in his bottles (helped with his reflux) @ngujen

yes I do :) the oatmeal will fill baby up faster and that will decrease amount of formula baby eats witch saves formula lol. but I don't measure the oatmeal I just eyeball it. but if baby is good on one oz mixed for oatmeal go to 2 oz :)

@nichole_lynn what do you mean by cap? @mommybump2016 yeah I was thinking about doing that! but everyone else did it different :/ do you give the oatmeal first then top it off with milk?

I gave my son a bowl in the morning and a bowl at night and I filled the cap when o started and instead of water I used formula and gradually increased the amount. hope that helps!

try once a day, 1 once milk with some oatmeal make it a little thick but a little runny for the first couple of times , what I would do is make a 6 oz bottle use 1 oz for the oatmeal and the rest give to baby. your baby will let you know if the bottle is too much by leaving some formuls

Short Luteal Phase?

I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
