When did you moms start giving your baby oatmeal? My baby is 2 months 1 week & I’m gonna start giving him a little oatmeal with his formula in the morning & at night!

I waiting until 6 months. Absolutely no need at all to rush, girl.
I wonder why deliberately going against medical facts isn't considered child abuse or endangerment. It should be.
I dont know why people post this kind of post since they already know what the outcome will be!!
@nap.queen, I actually don’t have ANY drama in my life & don’t tolerate it. But you know my life , right? 😁
@nap.queen you're right i got better things to do:)
To stir the pot. Or ignorance. Both are equally annoying.
My son will be 2 months on the 23rd and I’m fixing to start giving him cereal in his night time bottles. @sahmplustwo_.,
Reflux or no, putting cereal in bottles is a choking hazard. Look into another formula rather than adding cereal to the bottle.
Both of mine were 4-5 months only because the pedi said to try it and see if it will help with their reflux.
Wayyyyy too young to be starting your little one on solids! Please don’t! What is your reasoning to start so early? It is recommended at 6 months, 4 months at the absolute minimum and that’s only if baby is showing signs of readiness. I truely hope this post is a joke.

My son is almost 9 months and i started at 6 1/2 months. Why Are u wanting to start at 2 months? That just seems really early... what has your pediatrician said?
Cereal started at 7 months.
Please talk to an expert and reconsider the choice you are making. Why are you so eager to start cereal this early?
6 months. Please do some research and/or discuss it with your child’s doctor first.
Just in case you decide to not put your child's life in danger:
Solids are anything beyond breastmilk or formula. This includes: cereals, juices, purée, etc.
Not only is 6 months an important milestone, but there are also other factors that should ALL be met before introducing: sitting unsupported, loss of tongue thrust, pincher grasp are huge. These ensure your baby isn’t at risk for, amongst other things, choking. Baby being interested is very low on that list. Babies are curious, babies mimic- this does not mean they are ready to eat.
Feeding solids too soon puts your child at risk for long term gut damage, obesity, diabetes, poor eating habits, chrons, IBS, celiacs, food allergies and more.
Also- remember, just because your baby has the ability to eat foods, they do not have the digestive enzymes to break down and process the nutrients. They will just eliminate them as waste and not get what they need. They need breastmilk and/or formula until 1 because of this.
“Well I fed mine at x age and they are fine”: you don’t know this unfortunately. These things aren’t seen until late teens and early adulthood. Will some kids be fine? Yes. Is it worth the risk? No. Once you know, it’s too late.
“My Pedi said so”: most pediatricians are not up to date on infant nutrition. The WHO and AAP say 6 months, if your pedi goes against that question WHY they’d go against the recommendation and research of their peers.
“My baby is hungry”: be sure you’re pace feeding. It should take 5 mins per ounce when done properly. This is because you don’t want to stretch their bellies and it also takes time for their hormones to trigger a “full” feeling. Then— feed baby more formula or breastmilk.
“My baby is advanced”: sure. We all think that. However, they can’t turn 6 months early. And for preemie mamas- this means 6 months adjusted.
“My baby has reflux”: cereal for reflux is an outdated treatment. It should be used as a last resort after all other options have been exhausted and all testing has been completed. And for those who argue there’s formula with cereal- no that’s rice starch not cereal. That’s a topping for later though.
Don’t believe me? Here are some links (including Canada and the WHO since location is sometimes brought up as an argument)

@mississippi.queen please do! The more mamas that are educated, the better
Not at all just when did other moms start. That is all, my decision is made.
@sahmplustwo_. Lol well then. You're honesty is ... well surprising and alarming. So you only care about opinions versus what has been proven?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
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.

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
