when to offer rice cereal?
when should we offer rice cereal to baby? and any recommendations
Usually around 5 to 6 months when baby is able to hold his/her head up to allow easier movement of food into the stomach. Fruit puree is a good choice to start, and expect some rejection and constipation due to the change in food texture. Never introduce more than 1 type of fruit/fruit within a few days (a week to be safe) to watch for allergies. Have fun feeding solids- especially fruits. Their face expression is hilarious - have your phone ready to take videos! Have fun!

You offer once baby can start on solid foods usually from 6 months onwards
I gave at 5 months cause my PD said my baby is ready for solid food
From 4:5 months. Try nestle cerelac
Started at 6.5 months with Gerber.
From 6 months should be fine
I would say 6months onwards
