For those of you who have already had
babies, when did you start them out on
cereal, my son is 4 weeks old and I just
start him on cereal because formula alone
isnt filling him up because he eats 8 oz
every 3 hours, is this ok?

My mom had me on cheerios(which are the
shiznit!!)...I think cheerios are good for
babies though, because my uncle fed his
daughter cheerios...So im guessing that
would be ok for a baby...But yeah, check
with your child's pediatrician to make
sure its okay.

fine....Also make sure to let your dr know
