Formula mixed with baby food?

Question

Ok so I've was given a tip about putting a small bit of baby food in my baby's formula to help him sleep better because he eats like literally every 2 hrs and it gets exashting as hell like I get 3-4hrs of sleep at night if I'm lucky and someone told me to try this trick but I'm a FTM and don't know if it would be ok for my 1 month old son so I was tryna to get comments from other moms?
P.s heres a pic but my beautiful son Link💙😀

Answer

Sorry to be blunt. But. Suck it up that’s what newborns are suppose to do. Absolutely do not EVER put any solid food in a bottle of milk. That is a dangerous choking aspiration hazard and solids at 1m old is very dangerous. 
Newborns are suppose to wake every 2-3hrs for feeding and also helps prevent SIDS. 
Also solids won’t make them sleep longer in fact make it worse as the digestive system isn’t ready for that. Sleep is developmental, baby will sleep when baby wants to sleep. 
Don’t risk your child’s life doing this.

Answer

No, he’s too young and cereal in bottle is not only a choking hazard it also does nothing to help a baby sleep better. That is a common misconception. If anything it will have the opposite effect on sleep. Sleep is developmental and he’s only a newborn. It’s normal for them to want to eat often and he’s probably cluster feeding and hitting a growth spurt.

Answer

Babies are supposed to eat often at this age because they are growing a lot. Unfortunately it's just normal and you're going to be tired for a while. Adding cereal to a bottle is dangerous and introducing solids at 1 month is also dangerous.  Talk to your pediatrician if you think something atypical is going on, but it sounds like a normal newborn to me

Answer

Absolutely not. 
My son still ate every 2 hours even after starting solids so dont count on that helping either. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

That’s a normal newborn thing. My daughter also ate every two hours, for a very long time. He is too young for cereal in his bottle. To be blunt, you just have to suck it up. It’s part of being a mom 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

Absolutely NOT! 
Horrible advice! Babbies eat when they are hungry.  They are growing, its normal.
Do not put cereal in the bottle, its a choking hazard along with other things.
And it doesnt help baby "sleep" .

Answer

no too young

Answer

No. Don’t do it. It’s usually only recommend by pediatrician last to babies with reflux.

Answer

Also, at 1 month, baby WILL eat every two hours. That's completely normal. They also only sleep 2-3 hours at a time. Also normal. Did you not know this when you gave birth? 😅 not trying to be mean, but there isn't anything you can do. It's a newborn.

Answer

Cereal in bottles isn't recommended. It's a choking hazard. And on top of that, one month old is WAY too young to be giving them anything other than formula. Please don't do this. Just feed him every time he gets hungry. I know the newborn stage is rough, but you'll get through it.
