Lincoln is just about 5 months old, we're starting to feed him rice cereal in addition to his formula. when he's six months, how do we know how much s?

1teaspoon to4 tsf: Start with one teaspoon of rice cereal and add 4to5 teaspoon of formula or breast milk to it and feed the baby with a spoon.then gradually you can increase to 2 and then. 3 and 4 teaspoon as the baby gets the taste of it and follow it with formula or breast milk.

Not set plan: In the first year most infants get the majority of their calories from breast milk or formula. When adding solid food the most important role is a good experience with food, learning to move a bolus of food and swallow and determine any allergies. Always give one food at a time for at least 3-5 days then continue to build. Start with once or twice a day and move up as your baby desires.
