Cereal...I hope I don't sound silly...

but how exactly do you start off giving them cereal?. The Dr. told me today(at our almost 4 mo. appt) I can start introducing cereal then wait awhile and start veggies/fruit. I want to start on cereal but how do you start? The Dr. said to make it soupy... but is it spoon fed or bottle fed??? How often and when is the best time to give it to her if I start 1x a day...
TIA

I started with 1-2 tbsp of cereal mixed with breastmilk and at first I made it pretty liquidy(is that a word). I fed him with a spoon.

I did the same thing. Make it soupy - like where it just stays on the spoon. It may take a couple of weeks for her to learn how to swallow. I would also suggest starting with rice or oatmeal for a week and then trying the other. That way you will know which food she has a reaction to if she has one at all.
