Cereal?
I just found out my son's father gives him cereal when with him. And I am livid! What are your thoughts in giving a baby cereal so young?

I would go mental! No way, bubs are way too young.. Their tiny tummies are not mature enough to digest it. Send him some links on how dangerous any food is for a young baby and importance of waiting till they are 6 months.
Also cereal has absolutely no nutritional value.

I would go crazy!! Babies shouldn't be introduced food until Atleast 6 months old. And cereal has no nutritional value at all!! That should be something you and him agree on before starting foods!

Just making sure I was right to flip my sh.t on him when I found out. Y'all it literally brought me to tears, and now we have all this drama bc I said my son can't go back over there.

We are leaving Jace with his paternal grandma next weekend. I fear she will give him something....when I tell u imma inspect my baby once I get him back! ...I'm sorry his dad gave him cereal I'd be mad too....idk why people are always so eager to give babies food. They have their entire life to eat junk let us mothers instill correct eating habits while we can. Once they taste that cereal in their milk they are always gonna want it, or they won't feel as full anymore. It's annoying.

I started giving my baby oatmeal cereal in his bottle, just a little at a time and he does fine, mostly only at night I don't do rice though I heard it causes constipation! But he will be 4 months in a week and I plan on starting baby food!

I've read 4 to 6 months is when you can start giving baby food to a baby. Although it's recommended to ask your pediatrician about when to start since all baby's grow differently.

I don't see anything wrong with it. He should've at least talked to you about it though. It's both of your baby.

I think he should've talked to you about it first. But with that being said, I've already given my son rice cereal and his belly is fine, he's growing perfectly and much more happy at night when I give it to him. He's my 4th child and I've usually started cereal at around 3-4 months with all of my kids with no negative impact on anything at all. I'd talk to him calmly about it and voice your concerns. But telling him that his child can't go over to his house or whatever seems a bit much to me just because that's his child and he's not doing anything to hurt him. I may be wrong, but I'm guessing he doesn't leave him in dirty diapers, allow negative types of people around him, do bad things with him around, abuse him and whatnot... If he's playing an active role in his life and doing the best he can, I definitely wouldn't take that away from him or your child. Just my opinion.
