Never . It’s pointless. No nutritional value what so ever . And I get you might need sleep but just giving your baby something to help them knock out longer def isn’t the right thing to do . And it’ll only last so long because they’ll get used to it . And putting it in a bottle is a choking hazard. Start purées or baby led weaning at 6 months or older .
Your baby’s tummy will not be mature enough to handle rice cereal. Please do not give to your baby and especially do not add cereal to a bottle as it is a major choking hazard
Under advice from a team of doctors at the hospital we were told to start solids at 4 months because of him not pooping for weeks at a time. We tried rice cereal and he hated it! So we did pureed sweet potato and pears for 2 months. Unless medically necessary there should be no solids until 6 months and rice cereal is pretty pointless. There's no nutritional value at all. It can help with chronic acid reflux but again that's a medical reason.
I was told 4 and months for Journee just a tad in her bottle only because she battles with horrible acid reflux on 2 types of acid meds a day. Its definitely helped
With my first, after 6 months and decided it was pointless and didn’t give it to my second at all. But pls don’t consider giving to your baby. Especially not in a bottle
My mother in law gave it to all her kids at 1 month because she wanted them to sleep during the night for when she went back to work. It seems too young for me, but me and my husband are both active duty military, so when it's time to go back to work sleeping at night is necessary cause mornings start early at my house

I did at 4 months for the 1st two but 5 months for the other 2 I did it for the iron but I mixed it in a bowl or with baby food

Never! It’s not a guarantee that he will sleep. Invest in a keurig and some energy drinks girl.

it was pointless honestly, you can try giving it for a while but I’d go into solids and skip the rice cereal I heard it bad too

I did when he first turned 6 months he wasn’t a fan of it so skipped right into baby foods instead
