cereal constipates baby's.
switch to oatmeal, but not in a bottle.

I've been told if you do cereal bottles add a tablespoon of light karo syrup in it. You can also try all natural constipation relief drops by Little Remedies

It's none to plug babies up. If your going to start cereals try oatmeal. It's delicious and you and baby can have a snack lol

well I started the cereal because he was spitting his bottle up badly. someone told me to add a teaspoon to every bottle so it stays down and it's working great. I have banana oatmeal.. I will try to gas drops. he goes once a day but he use to go three times. and now it builds up and hurts him.

Baby Oatmeal is a a lot better, then the rice cereal. and dark Karo syrup helps with constipation.

I tried the oatmeal today. wasn't a success. he didn't like it at all.. and I heard Karo is great but then other people young moms are saying it messes their stomachs up as they get older. I honestly don't know what to believe. I used it twice on him and it worked but I'm scared now

well I just read up on it and it says it's okay at 4 months and he's turning 4 months in a few days. my sisters doctor told her to put cereal in her sons bottle at 2 months because he was having acid bad and so is mine. they are both of acid medicine and it won't work unless they have it their bottles. some parents are different. I am understanding where you're coming from. but it's the only way he keeps food down and I've tried every formula possible on him and nothing works even the non milk based kind.

other than cereal I don't know exactly what to do to keep his formula down. he spits up so much
