Rice cereal:
Ok so I mainly breastfeed, or try anyways.. well I've noticed my milk supply has severely decreased and it is not filling my baby up. So I have started supplementing, and her doctor put her on nutramigen. Well it is really thin, and seems to not be feeling her up either. For the past two weeks, she has been wanting to nurse every 45-60 minutes. The only time that is longer is during the night. My mother suggested putting a little bit of rice cereal in her milk so maybe it will satisfy her and she won't be eating as often. My daughter will be 3 months on September 14th. My mother also said that she had to start with a little bit of cereal in my milk when I was little around 2 weeks. I was just wondering what everyone's opinion is, because I'm a ftm and have no idea. I've read a little bit up on it, and some people say it works perfect and some say it doesn't. I would not be giving her the cereal so that it will make her sleep longer, I just need something that will help fill her up. And her not constant feel like she's starving
