Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Cereal

When did you start giving your baby rice Cereal and did you add it to a bottle or give it with a spoon?  And when did you start with baby food?

Re: Cereal

  • We started 4 months per the pedi's advice.  We gave it with a spoon but it was very runny.  I've read/heard it's a choking hazard in a bottle (unless needed for reflux, etc)

  • Were waiting until 6 mo.
  • We started at four months with the first and will do the same with the second. She never liked it plain, though, but when we added it with a puree, she did well.

  • started rice cereal at 4 mo. It took her awhile to take to it so have now just started oatmeal and will start baby food in a few days. Our pedi said not to use it in a bottle. It contributes to weight issues and pedi wants her to learn to eat her food, not just suck it.
