Going to start cardboard cereal, I mean rice cereal

My poor baby is going to start the yucky, bland rice cereal - probably this weekend. She's almost 6 months old and yesterday shoved a piece of challah in her mouth with her fist. So I think we should back up and start with the basics!

I hope she moved thru cereals fast and on to the yummy fruits and veggies soon!

I loved these messy meal days - it's so cute! Very few people's eyes light up for peas past this age - haha!

Re: Going to start cardboard cereal, I mean rice cereal

  • Good luck!  C finally started to get excited about cereal 2 weeks ago.  She is becoming such a little piggy. 
  • I loved rice cereal when I was a baby/toddler.  Apparently, I used to beg my mom to make some for me any time she was feeding it to my baby brother.  Smile

    once my daughter moved on to oatmeal, i stopped rice altogether.  she now alternates b/w oatmeal and mixed grain....i had a  hard time finding the barley so she has never had it. 

    I love the messy stage too....and she loves her fruits and veggies!

    that's what we did for Ava, but I did need to use the rice to thicken up some homemade purees on occassion.

    it's so blah!

    Rice cereal also comes in handy when they get sick and have diarrhea.  Thank goodness we had some left over when little man got sick.
