Answer by Sarah
NEVER EVER EVER EVER *gasp* EVER put cereal in a baby’s bottle!
It says right on the formula cans not to mix it in a bottle….in a bowl ONLY!
By putting it in a bottle it poses a choking hazard.
If your child won’t take baby cereal with bowl and spoon, then he/she isn’t ready for cereal yet. Don’t force it via a bottle.
Answer by Gemma

Answer by KATHLEEN
I started giving Donnie rice cereal when he was 6 weeks old in his last bottle of the night. It helped him sleep better. Now that I am giving him cereal in the morning and evening, I don’t give it to him anymore in his last bottle.
Answer by ♥Spencer’s♥ ♥Mom♥
yeah that’s what they are talking about
don’t ever ever do it
its horrible
causes all kinds of problems for baby’s digestion and is a big choking hazard
Answer by MariVi
NONE!!!!!!!! Never put cereal in a baby’s bottle… it is a huge choking risk.
Baby’s should not be eating cereal until they are 6 months old, and they should eat it with a spoon, not out of a bottle.
Answer by my princess is here 1/13/2009:)
they are talking about rice cereal dont do it there are many dangers to doing this and depending how old the child is maybe to early for them to digest
Answer by Mindy B
I’m guessing. I have been told not to by my daughters doctor but yes it is baby cereal. You can find it in the baby food section. Here is what it looks like.

Answer by luversnliars
Putting baby cereal in a bottle isnt a choking hazard you dont put enough in it to make it thick if that were the case they wouldnt be able to drink it through the bottle anyways….Anyways i use Gerber rice cereal single grain, its heavier on the stomach and you add just a little to the formula bottle and it helps them sleep long too
Answer by grammy
you are never supposed to put cereal into a babies bottle give the child a little a teaspoon full of cereal baby rice very thin along with a bottle at night to keep baby aleep longer but not before the age of 4 months. babies need to be able to swallow food before they get it

Answer by starfire978
nope. it’s a proven fact that doing that will not help them sleep and doesn’t teach them about food
Answer by 38 weeks with baby #1(Noah)
Cereal doesn’t belong in a bottle. It goes on a spoon.
Answer by [K]aty ♥
No. It doesn’t help them sleep longer either. Spoon-feed her or at least try to. She can have other foods too. Try some out and see what she likes.

Answer by gracie
Please don’t put cereal in the bottle…. It is a major choking hazard. You can feed it to her on a spoon. I usually mix about 2 oz of oatmeal baby cereal with breastmilk until the consistancy of applesauce.
Very best wishes!
Answer by sweets2475
Normally for a 6 ounce bottle I put 2/3 formula and 1/3 cereal to help her sleep through the night. (2 scoops formula 1 scoop cereal) Just make sure its completely liquid because baby can choke. You should be just fine.
Answer by just a thought…
No. Use a spoon if you really want to give her cereal.
Answer by MOMMY1
Hi! I have been told that you can actually make a bigger hole in the nipple of a bottle and/or buy a special nipple that will allow cereal to flow through. However, I would advise against this because of the risk of choking. Just feed it to her on a spoon. If your little one does not like the taste of just cereal add veggies and/or fruit to the cereal and see if she likes it better that way. Also, if you are mixing the cereal with water now rather than formula or breastmilk try to mix it with milk instead-she might like that better as well. Homemade food is always more tasty than jar food so that be something to try if you have not already.

Wonderful baby cereal in bottle:

All three hotels had these beautiful stands for the cereal.
11/22/2004 – Monday: in Rome Roma, the Vatican, train to Florence Firenze
tags: italy
Monday Reality
Left hotel a bit late…not too bad. Tried to get on the subway but there was a line up the stairs. We were going to take a bus, but then we got a cab. 10 euros to take a cab two metro stops…I sort of think that wasn’t strictly kosher…but maybe it was. it was still fun. We got to go under a tunnel that we saw yesterday during our ordeal march of being lost.
the idea was to catch the capucin crypts on the way to the vatican. But they were closed…still. so we slipped down back into the subway. We had used our single use tickets when we were turned back by the line at the Termini station, but we decided that the moral constraints were met, so we slipped through and re-used the tickets to get to the vatican. AFter all, we had gone through the gate, but we hadn’t gotten on a train…
so the train left at 4:48ish, maybe 4:47…basically right on time …
Off we rushed to the Vatican museum. We arrived at 10:00…and the english tour was at 10:30, so just enough time to get oriented and rest a bit before the ordeal by marbel floor!
We had a nice tour guide. First she showed us a sort of parchement view of the sistine chapel-two rulls of text and pictures with details of the different scenes. She would wind it down to get the next view.
This was fascinating…I am phenomenally underinformed of art and cultural matters…it is almost a cliche to say that, but egads it it true.
on the other hand, there are things we know today that were unknown 200 years ago. Amazingly…apparantly the whole forum area was under dirt until 18-something. So much dirt that only the tops of the columns were exposed. and even now much remains.
The archeologists cringe over the techniques used to clear what is now exposed. There have been several recent archeological ‘campaigns’ among the ruins of palatine hill that have excavated pre-roman huts. one of the write ups discussed the findings of 27 flakes of flint, indicating tool maing. So infering thngs based on bits of things found…which is the whole point of archeology.
And it made me realize that they are not done excavating Rome Roma…an odd thing to realize, since only a moment’s consideration would reveal how obvious that is! There are Indian mounds that the archeologists are intentionally leaving alone for now, with the expressed plan of letting future archeologists examine them when they have better techniques.
my ears are popping…and the gps lost its lock…I then look out and realize we are going through a tunnel. ah…sense is made.
maybe…perhaps it wasn’t a tunnel…I can’t tell. several more episodes of pressure changes are occuring.
There are sliding head rests on the cabin walls in back of the seats. they are padded and have vertical supports so that you can lean on them to sleep without falling into the window, or onto your neighbor. they slide up and down to allow you to adjust to your preferences.
We didn’t see the capucini crypt, because it was closed, and it was getting dark as we got on the train, but we are doing pretty well.
The vatican tour took two hours…and it seemed that we were moving much of the time. they have these slick radio receivors so you can hear the tour guide even if you are in the next room back.
I had a strong response to a tapestry depicting the slaughter of the chilidren by herod. One baby is being held, barely, by its mother and a soldier has a dagger to the child’s heart. The baby is about to die. Other mother’s are using their bodies to shield their infants. it is truly horrible.
damn! the pressure changes are really frequent, and amazingly annoying.
I downloaded a bunch of stuff from ‘hex’-a friend of Jo and Schuyler’s. I’m reading
how to build a reality that doesn’t fall apart two days later…file:///Users/admin/wa/web/downlode.org/etext/how_to_build.html
I’m on the train…fighting sleep. I need to pee, but to do that I worry I’ll have to wake the gentleman seated in front of the door to our compartment.
passing through orte…at 5:27:00—possibly even got a track point. I had a signal for a moment.
well..more than a moment, but not too long. there is crying in the hall….
The GPS showed us going 115 mph, for a bit. not just one observation. interesting. fast.
The hall of maps was cool because I realized it was, or could have been, not about art and instead was about the simple matter of managing an empire.
I enjoyed the museum, duh, and the Sistine chapel…and then we climbed the dome! I loved that! I truly loved it. We got to the top and I could see radio vatican and the quiet parts of the vatican and various ’stuff.’ I don’t know why, but seeing vatican radio made me happy.
We descended…heather waited while i ran about St. Peter’s one more time. I went back into the catecombs…and reflected again at st. peter’s grave, and the crypts of the popes. different passageway’s were open from last time…you went in and out on different sides. Saturday we went through more passageways, past bits of monuments, even broken bits, supposedly the memorials for past popes there had been recovered via archeological digs and the like…little rooms, with gates, and some stones mounted on the walls.
Today I looked through a grate and down at a compartment that seemed to be set up as a small chapel. maybe a particularly holy pope was buried there.
When they embalm a pope, or remove anything from one, they send the bits to a particular church in room so the bits don’t become relics.
I was struck by how clean and non-catacomb like the area was that we were allowed to tour. There were passageways that looked like they might get more ‘creepy’ small and twisty, but it was all clean…I guess marble does that for you.
Heather was whipped. We walked the .4 miles to cafe ruggio (is that it? The antipasto bar place by gellati millenium. it is in the Rick steve’s book. We tried for it Saturday, but it was still closed, and we tried today, but closed Monday. Both faux paws (sic) could have been avoided if we had looked at the book and actually _read_ that listign first.
I have so many books and things that I don’t really need…
Well Heather felt really crappy…but we ate at the little place by millenium gellati. It was great. The woman dished me up two plates. First a bowl of pasta, and then a plate with veal, mushrooms, zucchine, and peas with ham. It was in little bowls and I got to pick…heather had a panini. I was jsut positive that I was suffering eyes bigger than my head syndRome Roma, but
(and here the laptop powered down, I was writing on the train, and now it is the next day and some, 1:20 am on the 24th) I ate everything, and had a gellato after. And we went to the big ‘M.’ We found the M, but there was no metro…it was up another block. We metroed to the train station. Identified a train time, then grabbed our stuff at the hotel.
We spent time at the internet cafe DSC_4285.JPG, DSC_4286.JPG, DSC_4287.JPG … They didn’t support ssh! well I finally did send an email to folks via the webmail at work.
Then the train! The train was great. And we whisked into Florence Firenze. We wandered streets for a bit, then I got lock on the GPS, and knew we were .15 miles, and we wandered. I didn’t remember the street name (via nazzionale, #10), but when we stumbled onto it Heather identified it. And we were a half block away.
Check in went smoothly. We fooled around, and then took to the streets. We ate at trattoria Sostanza-Troia (see p285 of Rick Steves). There were tour de france pictures on the walls, and signed photos dating back. We enjoyed it! A bottle of table wine. Tortellini with a house sauce, and then pot roast with beans. Heather had a bean salad and a salad.
Then we wandered back and bought a bottle of wine and some chocolate. Heather studied our books, and I sort of watched the Tony Gatuf movie Swing. I think it was in Italian with French subtitles. After all of that Art, and trying to read the pictures, I watched it in a different way. Paying attention to the cultural signifiers and all of that jazz. Having thoughts like ‘why did he frame that shot that way? What does that use of open space say?" etc…

never put any cereal in bottle it is a choking hazard
ok….i know you are not suppose to feed your baby a bottle with cereal in it because they say it causes choking hazards…
but why do you think the bottle companies make the ‘X’ nipples for??
i buy earths best organic cereal…oatmeal, or rice. a very little goes a long way.
just make sure you are watching your baby when he or she eats and that he is able to chew and swallow.
DO NOT DO THIS WITH A NEW BORN…..6 months + only…if he or she has no other problems…consult your doctor!
Yes those crazy people that want to make sure that their child sleep a longer time. Its not a good idea and does not help at all. I tired once on my 2 month old and all that happened was he got a bad rash, because his body was not ready to accept the baby cereal.
So stay away from it and don’t try it on your baby.
I use rice cereal and I use 1 tsp per 4 oz of breastmilk or formula… My dr actually told me to do this b/c my 5 week old has acid reflux and has a hard time keeping anything down, The cereal seems to be helping he spits up WAY less than before.
Hope that helps!
Some doctors recommend adding a teaspoon of single grain rice cereal to 4 or 5 ounces of breastmilk or formula to help combat acid reflux. When cereal is that dilute in a bottle, the choking risk is minimal, especially when compared to the danger of spit up aspiration reflux babies suffer. Only you and your doctor can determine if this is appropriate for your baby.
NO WAY!!!
Cereal in her bottle WILL NOT make her sleep longer. Just keep offering food and bottles, it is probably just a stage she is going through.
And if she is picky, she probably will not drink the bottle w/ cereal in it!!
at 10 months you can definitely add cereal. the dr let me add at 4 weeks because my child acted hungry and wouldnt sleep . start with a tbsp or two make it thin and let her get used to it. then go thicker. she can proably eat it with a spoon mixed with milk. if she is eating baby food.
your baby does NOT need teeth to have table foods just soft foods- rice cereal is not even nutritious and breastmilk or formula contains more calories than it- take a look at teh web site i provide for you- she will never learn to feed herself if you dont let her- my son is almost a year and his second tooth has just popped through- he has been eating table food for months- try steamed carrots, soft pieces of chicken, whole peas ad things like that- there are risks to putting rice cereal in bottles like choking, diabetes, and childhood obesity, and thats not worth anything. solids dont help with sleeping through the night- they made it worse for my son. its kinda selfish to risk those things for some extra sleep. babies can mash food with their gums- you dont chew with your front teeth anyway
umm that sounds rediculous hunn lol
if she is 10 months…..
u shouldnt put cereal in the bottle…. theres no way she would get it out of the nipple..
if she doesnt have teeth yet id try and give her something softer. maybe she is teething ..thats why some dont eat.. and babies are picky lol..
but cereal in a bottle …no..
Have you tried her on stage one foods? She may be hungry for more than formula. By 10 months, you can start all sorts of solids. Just check with your doctor. That may be what she’s missing. She doesn’t have teeth to eat stage one foods.
Good luck!
Contrary to popular belief, adding rice cereal to your baby’s nighttime bottle will not help her in any way. In fact, it will only harm her. It poses a choking hazard, is hard on your babies digestion, and poses a bigger risk for SIDS.
A little more about feeding baby cereal from a bottle…
Doctors and other experts recommend that you never give baby cereal in a bottle unless recommended by baby’s doctor for a specific medical condition. Here are some of their reasons:
* It is a choking hazard.
* The cereal takes away from the amount of milk in the bottle (adds carbohydrates and dilutes the nutrient density), and baby may not get adequate milk volume for proper growth and development.
* Baby is being given a higher concentration of calories without being able to regulate her own intake. This can lead to weight problems in the future
http://www.kellymom.com/nutrition/solids/solids-sleep.html
If you’re worried about how much your little one is eating, she is old enough to start on some solids in addition to her breastmilk or formula.
Is there a “window of opportunity” for starting solids?
There is certainly a “window of opportunity” for starting solids, but this varies widely from baby to baby. At some point (usually around 6-8 months) baby will become developmentally ready to eat solid foods (able to sit up, chew, pick up food, etc.). At around the same age, the gastrointestinal tract is physiologically mature enough to handle a diversity of foods. At this point, most healthy babies will be ready and willing to eat (even if it’s only occasionally and in tiny amounts).
Occasionally, parents will be told that baby must start solids by 6 months (or 8 months, or 10 months) or baby will have problems learning to accept and eat foods that require chewing. This “limited window of opportunity” idea is widely believed, but unproven.
http://www.kellymom.com/nutrition/solids/solids-when.html
I will probably be given a thumbs down for this, but I’m simply speaking from scientific evidence.
At 10 months you should probably not put cereal in a bottle….I work in a baby room and have seen that done with one of our babies but its usually only for babies who are younger and are at a dangerously low weight and/or not gaining weight, and it was on their doctor’s orders. You can feed her cereal on a spoon…and try mixing in a fruit or veggie (stage 1 baby foods) to make it taste better for her if you haven’t started her on those yet, that way she can get used to eating baby foods, and it will fill her up more.
