what kind of cereal to start?? and what's the difference?
« on: June 07, 2006, 16:22:45 pm »
just wondering what the difference is between rice cereal, barley or oats? and what is the best one to start with. this is my third child but it has been 8 years since my last one, and i remember with my first 2 children rice cereal made them a little constipated, so my question is which cereal is best to start off with?

We started with rice but I think that you can start with any single grain cereal.  Both my boys got rice for the first three days and then oats for the next three then we alternated ;D

The Doctors suggest rice because there is less chance of an allergen.  HTH
