oatmeal cereal ?

Question

My daughter will be 3 months on the 22nd. My boyfriend already wants to give her oatmeal cereal cause he thinks my daughter isn't satisfied with her milk cause she's hungry every two hours. I heard you aren't suppose to give babies cereal at least 4-6 months. But I know other moms that gave their babies cereal at 2 or 3 months and their baby is fine. What do you think I should do ?

Answer

Your baby might just be having a growth spurt and has an increased appetite as a result. Nurse your baby whenever she wants fed. If she still seems to not be satisfied when she's feeding on demand, you might want to call your doctor. I wouldn't feed your baby cereal because babies really need the nutrients from milk at her age when she's developing so rapidly, and the cereal will just fill her up without providing the nutrients she needs.

Answer

I thought at 3 months you could but I could be mistaken. Honestly go on the gerber website and look they have all the information
