Quick question!

When is it okay to start feeding you baby cereal? I can't seem to remember when I started to with my other little one. My little guy seems so hungry all the time...he seriously wants to be attached to my boob 24/7!

    Some pediatricians advise to start as young as 4 months.  The AAP and most health organizations including the WHO recommend waiting until AT LEAST 6 months.

    Pedi gave us permission around your LOs age, he siad it may or may not help her sleep at night..it didnt...we have done it since.. But she tolerated it wonderfully, she ate just as much of that as she did her regular formula

    "They" say 6 months. I started at 3 bc of the same reason you described but he got badly constipated so we stopped and began again at 4 mo.  His savage hunger stopped after the a couple of days the first time....growth spurt?  He got constipated again at 4mo!!!  So we just started veggies at 4 1/2 months.  Going great!
