  • That is horrible. Poor baby Sad
  • Yeah, I gave her my 2 cents but it probably wasn't appreciated! Indifferent
  • i have a good friend of the family that keeps trying to push rice cereal on my LO- she even went out and bought some for me! i have to keep telling her that i am not ready to give it to her (LO has some reflux now)

    drives me nuts! i have almost resorted to saying- ohh yes she is doing much better now, thanks for the tip! bc she won't leave me alone even with me telling her to bug off

  • Poor baby! You have to wonder how some LOs make it through the 1st year.... Sad

    O.M.G, yes!!!  My MIL and Aunt are driving me crazy with it!  They keep asking me when I am going to start, because 'it is so important that ds eats it now for his development and so he will sttn'.  When they ask when I plan on starting I just tell them when my pedi recommends it, I'm in no rush.  They look at me like I am a stupid, over worrying mommy.  They even have dh pushing the issue now.

    Shut up and let me raise my own child... ugh!  My MIL also thinks I am going to prevent my child from getting vitamins because I want to make some of my own baby food when the time comes instead of feeding purely jarred stuff.  I mean, obviously fresh veggies have no nutritional value...

    Sorry, I guess I went off on a tangent.  My MIL is not my favorite person, by any means! =/  Too bad she's my MIL.

  • My neighbor keeps tellling me I should give DS rice cereal so he'll STTN.  I politely tell her that is an old wives tale and that I will discuss with his Dr. when the time is right to start cereal, but she keeps pushing it almost every time I talk to her.  As much as I'd love him to STTN, I'm not going to shove rice cereal down his throat!
  • Sad

    That's awful.  I'd love to even give her the benefit of the doubt and say that the pedi told her to do it for reflux.  But I've never heard of a baby that young needing rice cereal.
