Who gives their baby cereal? When did you start? Do you mix with formula? My baby is two months and everyone is telling me to give her some... Thoughts?
@kia, Ethan's pediatrician at his 8 weeks check up wants me to give him rice cereal every other day. He spits up a lot and want to see if the volume helps with that. He's never taken a bottle so I'm yet to try it. She said mix it with the breast milk to desired consistency. Keeping in mind that the nipple is stage 1.
Most pediatricians won't even recommend it until 3/4 months. The general rule is 6 months- some people do give it earlier because they believe the extra food in their belly will make them sleep longer at night. I'd check with your pediatrician before making any decisions.
