pedi's view on rice cereal
So I brought up my concerns today. She totally agreed there is no nutritional value and is leaving it up to us. Her reason she does like them to start with it is more to make sure his digestive system is ready and it has the least allergy risk. These are her tips if you decide to:
1. Make your own. Buy rice and wash it until the water is clear, which she says can take a while. Then boil and puree yourself.
2. Only give two spoon full twice a day for a week. If no blood in stool or other issues start veggies.
3. If BF wait until 5 or 6 months, no nutritional value anyways.
I told her I would probably still skip it and go straight to avacado. She said that was totally fine. I thought buying your own was a good idea though.
