Unsure about cows milk and cereal?

Question

Hi there! I'm a ftm soon to be a stm my oldest is a year old and he's been drinking cows milk with cereal in the bottle right before bed to help him sleep a little better with a fuller belly so I'm curious he didn't finish his bottle tonight and has 5 oz left in it and I hate to waste is it okay to keep it in the fridge until tomorrow morning?
Someone please help me out I've heard it is okay some places and others it isn't i don't know what to do!!

Answer

No

Answer

No. Toss it out. If hes old enough to have cereal, feed it to him on a spoon. Quit putting it in the bottle.

Answer

Not to mention, anything other than water at night/right before bed is going to contribute to teeth decay

Answer

It’s not good to put cereal in a baby/toddlers bottle

Answer

There’s a lot you should do differently here. No bottle with milk right before bed or he could get tooth decay, start to wean from the bottle fully anyways because he’s a year old, and never put cereal in the bottle again because it’s a big choking hazard. At his age he shouldn’t really have any trouble sleeping through the night with normal diet during the daytime. If he’s used to using the drinking method to help go to sleep try replacing the milk with a straw cup of water

Answer

Throw it out. And cereal or any solid should never ever ever go into a bottle. That’s a dangerous choking aspiration hazard and most definitely does not help sleep.

Answer

Throw it out. Also avoid anything before bed unless teeth are getting brushed afterwards. It will cause infant cavities which are caused primarily by people giving a bottle before bed, and really painful for baby :(

Answer

No cereal in the bottle. Ever. Once his mouth has been on it, it's only good for 2 hrs. Fridge or not. Bacteria issue.

Answer

Thank you guys!
