Have you tried cereal, rice or oatmeal, and had success with your LO that has other food intolerances? Did your LO have any problems with it? If so, what kind of reaction?
DD has a dairy and soy allergies. The pediatrician said we can start her on cereal but I'm nervous she'll have a bad reaction (I know it isn't likely). She's had enough tummy troubles in her first few months of life. I know we'll need to start foods at 6 months which 6 weeks away, so I'm wondering if I just skip cereal for now.
TIA!!

Re: LOs with dairy/soy/other intolerances
Us too.
I'm hardly ever on thebump anymore, but I just randomly checked in....
Our little one has MSPI, and I was reading about introducing cereal on www.refluxrebels.com. They have MSPI info too. We are also BF'ing, so they advise against rice, and advise to start with oatmeal cereal. Also, note that Gerber rice cereal has soy in it.
