It's too early they recommend 4 months because babies digestive system cannot tolerate it, some ppl do it to make babies sleep but it's not good at that age.

Way to early. I believe 4 months is when u can try to introduce cereal.  Ask the pediatrician to be sure.

Its way too early, the advice is 4 to 6 months old. Prior to this time the child should be on breast milk or if thats not medically possible you can get early baby formula. I find formula is really expensive especially when you make all the food baby needs yourself.

Your babies tummy will not be able to handle cereal until about 4.5-5months old. Formula has all the nutrients to keep ur full happy and healthy. Or breastmilk if your breastfeeding. If you give the baby too early it could create serious digestive problems when they get older.

Not until around 4-5 months unless your dr tells you otherwise. some babies drs will recommend putting a little bit in their formula.
