I feel like a terrible mom.
I feel like a terrible mom.
My sons doctor wanted me to try giving him expressed breast milk in bottles, mixed with rice cereal to keep his reflux at bay because he's got it pretty bad. I know WIC always says not to give the baby cereal in the bottles at all, and especially dont give them cereal until 6 mons old - just breastmilk. So, I just gave him his first cereal bottle 😳😧 And I feel terrible.

if the doctor said its fine, then do it. WIC is just the general nutritionist for baby's, but every baby is different, and when it comes to acid reflux or something else that's wrong with the stomach then its better to listen to the doctor, not WIC.

don't feel bad if that's what your doctor recommend you need to go based on doctors orders not what everyone else thought was best for your baby

I had to do that for my baby. don't feel bad at all. it's helping baby, so it's a good thing. You go on the advice of your doctor not wic. Wic is there to give you support and nutrition advice, but even so you don't have to do what they suggest. They don't have a PHD or Doctrines Degree.

Yeah don't feel bad. Wic people are nutritionist not doctors. They always try and tell u what to do, a doc knows best. And in my Hispanic culture at 3 months we already give them rice cereal in their milk and that's for them to not be so hungry all the time. It is totally normal.
