Chase tried rice cereal this morning. I'd say the results were mixed. Our pediatrician recommended we start trying a little rice cereal once he was four months to see if it helps him keep milk down better (the kid spits up a lot, but doesn't have acid reflux). Possibly, the cereal will give him a little bulk in his tummy to soak up the milk. At first Chase was really excited to be sitting in his high chair (Thanks Aunts!) He looks so tiny in it!
We tried several bites. He was okay with it at first. Then he started crying and was just letting it sit in his mouth. I'd say the majority of the cereal ended up on his bib.
Oh well- it's mostly for exposure at this point right?
We'll try again tomorrow:)

I loved the Bilko quote to categorize Chase's results on cereal, maybe you should try him out with something a little more tasty?
ReplyDeleteI hope it goes well. It took Jaylah a few weeks to actually enjoy cereal but it happened eventually. Does the doctor think the cereal could help his weight gain too?
ReplyDeleteJack always hated plain cereal but he loves it mixed with applesauce. Have you tried that? And that little boy looks adorable in his giant high chair. Love it!
