Did you start giving your baby cereal?
**Thank You**
Thank you all for your responses, definitely a wide range of answers lol she'll be 4 months in two weeks, I think I'll give it a shot at that time!

Answer

Mine was 2 weeks because he has acid reflux real bad and on Nutramigen which is very thin. His doctor recommended to put a half a teaspoon of single grain rice cereal per ounce of milk in his bottles.

Answer

Oh, I know I'm going to get some backlash for this, but all four of my children had cereal, meats, vegetables, and fruits from a spoon the day they came home from the hospital. My three youngest children also had cereal added to their bottles due to acid reflux. They all did fine, no allergies and are now respectively 18, 16, 13, and 11.
