i know i have seen a couple other mom's state that their kids also had allergies and used nutramigen or another similar supplement.

jack just started eating organic brown rice cereal and i think he may also be allergic to the rice (he has a dry red rash on his forehead and cheeks). have any of you seen an allergic reaction once starting cereal or jarred baby foods?  if so, what have you used in place of rice cereal? i know a lot of the foods also have brown rice syrup in them as well.

    Make your baby food. You do not need to do cereal at all.

    I make/made all their food and use unadluterated veggies, fruits and meats (no hormones, no antibiotics, no risk of cross contamination) and it is super easy. I can make a 2m supply in about an hour and I added BM or ailmentum into the food for nutrients.

    Food allergies usually cause a rash all over the body, not just on the facevand are often associated with diarrhea, vomiting, etc..... It might be a little eczema or something else.

    haven't had any other allergies so far to foods...hopefully won't.  I stay away from gerber cereal though cuz it contains milk protein.

    Make sure there is nothing in the cereal that could be milk or soy protien based. That's the most likely culprit. Also, our pedi GI said you can skip cereal. If you're comfortable with that, just make your own babyfood so you'll know exactly what's in it!

    We haven't started any solids yet for this very reason. I'm terrified of what else he might be allergic to.

    I said I added formula or breast milk to the food for added nutrients.
