Giving 1 month old baby food with formula??

Question

So my 1 month old baby eats so much like every 1-2 hrs and eats 4-6 oz every feeding and does not get full at all especially at night it’s horrible. My family tells me I should try giving him a Lil bit of baby food like oatmeal with formula at night so he can get full and sleep longer .. has anyone tried this?? If so pls let me know

Accepted Answer

Absolutely not. Cluster feeding is totally normal.

Answer

No cereal or ANYTHING before 6mo. Just breastmilk or formula!

Answer

No, do not do that! Baby as aspirate, breathe in, the food and suffocate or get pneumonia. A one month old is going through growth spurts and needs to wake up and eat. Itll only last a week or two. Dont stretch their stomach and risk death.

Answer

Your baby may honestly be fussy from being overly full! Look up info about paced bottle feeding.

Answer

NO OMG

Answer

No!

Answer

No no no and no. Not okay, not safe. And proven that it will not make baby sleep longer. Baby needs breastmilk/formula for nutrition and not nutrition-less oatmeal. If baby has filler in them, they’ll take less milk/formula, which means they wouldn’t be getting the vitamins and nutrition they need.

Answer

I was taught in child dev to never ever ever do this

Answer

Definitely not

Answer

Absolutely not. Please don’t listen to advice from others that could potentially hurt your child. If you’re that concerned call your doctors office and ASK whatever you need to ask.
