Rice Cereal!


I started Chris on Rice Cereal on July 7th. He is now taking about 30 oz. of formula and eating cereal once a day. At first he was not crazy about the cereal. He made horrible faces and had a hard time getting it down. Elise liked cereal from the first bite and could not get enough so feeding an unsure Christopher was a new challange! I was just going to give up and wait a few more weeks. My Mom told me to just give it time and to at least try the cereal once a day to get him familiar with the idea of eating solids. Well sure enough, (Mom's are always right), it is now July 23rd and he loves his cereal! It just clicked one day and he decided he liked the cereal idea! I am still just feeding it to him once a day. I give him 1-2 Tbs and I am trying to get him down to 4 bottles (24oz) of formula a day so that way we can add more solids little by little. He is doing really well on his new feeding routine and sleeping great! He is ready for bed by 10:00-10:30pm and he will sleep until 8:00-9:00am! Next week we are going to try Oatmeal! YUMMY!!
