At the recommendation of my son's GI specialist, we started him on rice cereal once a day about two weeks ago. We followed the package instructions for mixing the ratio of cereal to BM, and we have made it slightly thicker since then.
My son is using the spoon like a champ, and it seems like we could be doing a slightly thicker texture. Right now, it's still really runny - mostly liquid, like soup.
My question is how thick do you make your cereal? Do you measure out BM and cereal, and if so, what is your ratio?
Re: Rice cereal - how thick?
Right now I do
1 TBSP rice cereal
2 oz formula
But that's because he's just starting.
