Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Rice Cereal

I am started LO off on Gerber rice cereal. She seems to spit it up mixed in her formula and does not like it at all spoon fed. I even tried the kind mixed with banana flavor and she didn't like it either and kept crying. Any suggestions?

  • I have only tried everyday for about a week. I guess I can still try or try an alternative. I just was not sure how long till a baby caught on new food and trying it by spoon.

  • I started J on cereal at 4 months. He didn't take it so I gave it a break and retried a few weeks later. He now takes food from a spoon like a champ! If they're too young or still have tongue thrust, then spoon feeding won't be successful.
