I think it actually made my daughter hungrier, and she started waking up MORE. So I stopped it and she went back to her normal routine of waking once or twice a night.

I tried that and it actually made my daughter more hungry sooner because it stretched out her stomach. Everytime I did that she woke up more often...

I have to for my son who is only 23 days for Acid reflux. He sleeps from 10pm to 4 am. Not sure if its the cereal. Both of my girls sleep around 2 weeks old but not as well as my son. I stared them around 4 months and it helped them sleep a little bit longer. I dont know why people think it such a sin either. I posted a poll about my son`s AR and said my Pedi`s told me to put rice cereal for his AR. people told me not to do it and I should get another dr. I did the rice cereal and it works!! He did go to Medical school for 8 + years. I think their are a few extremists on this Website. I got comments about BF only but what they dont realize is that I dont produce enough milk, so I have to supplement or else all 3 of my children would have starved to death. I guess it depends on the baby. what works on one does or may not work for another.

Didn`t help at all for me. I started to give rice cereal at 4 months as my son had reflux - didn`t make any difference.

I dont know, my mother in law swears by it.. I would add about a tablespoon to my baby`s bottle at night...

I gave my both my little ones cereal at about 3 months and it always helped them sleep through the night. Never had any problems. I thinned it down and fed it in a bottle - very thin like runny tomato soup. Rice cereal first because it`s easiest to digest. Last bottle of the day, within 30 min of bedtime. yep.

I tried feeding cereal from a spoon at about 4months and she did sleep better for the first week, then not so much,lol.

I have 4 boys and I started doing it at about 3-4 months with each of them when it seemed like they weren`t getting there bellies full once I started doing that they slept great for me (all night actually intill they got older). But just make sure you do it right before bed time! (like thirty mins to a hour)
