Rice Cereal

We progressed to eating rice cereal at the high chair on Monday, so we took loads of camera footage. There are no digital pics though so we'll have to get daddy to take some stills from the video. Gabriel ate the whole portion (about a tablespoon)...we were a little surprised at his appetite but very impressed. He made lots of funny faces while eating it all but his mouth kept opening for more so he must have liked it!
The only downside is that the last two nights he's eaten the rice cereal, he hasn't slept as well, but we don't really know if its connected or not. It seems Gabriel just likes to tease me with his sleeping pattern he'll improve for a few nights and I'll praise him for it, then he'll have a couple of horrible ones to just to prove me wrong. The joys of motherhood!

tasha you might want to check to see about weather the milk is perhaps too harsh on his stomach for night time what type of milk are you using? and what time are you giving it to him?
maybe see about giving him somthing different at night time softer maybe its too heavy on his tummy. Just idea's

In new Zealand here they are saying that you shouldn't feed babies dairy before one or eggs and peanut butter or peanuts before three they think it can add to allergies of these things if introduced before these ages. Thisis what was just said in my first aid course I am currently in anyways.

Not sure if that is helpful just a though to ponder.

Thanks for the advice Crystal but we did our homework before starting so he isn't getting any dairy. They say a baby has to be year for that here too. I'm using my milk and we're feeding him in the afternoon. Then I feed him normally before bed to keep his routine.
