I have not had any success with feeding our LO cereal. No matter if it's rice or oatmeal, it's a throw up rally afterwards. We have a pediatrician appt in 2 weeks so I'll discuss with her, but curious if anyone else just skipped cereal all together? I've read different reviews on nutritional value for both, and I'm not finding it to be a necessity. Anyone have advice? He is eating solids and that's going great!
Re: Anyone skipping cereal?
We did barley-flax meal, but honestly if you mush up avocado or banana it achieves the same goal. Don't freak out about gagging. It natural when learning to eat.
Also, how thick is the cereal? You could be just over loading LO's tummy. If you just started then one or two ounces of formula mixed with a little bit of oatmeal should be ok. You have to gradually thicken it.
