EBF moms...what do you mix cereal with?
BM, formula, water??
We started cereal with DD about 2 weeks ago and so far I've been mixing it with water. She eats it, but would it be more nutritional mixed with something else? I am sooo not pumping milk just to mix with cereal...HATE pumping!! With my DS I had started to introduce a little formula here and there by the time we started solids, but so far DD has only had BM and I'd like to keep it that way as long as possible.

I was exclusively pumping (6 or 7 times a day... for six months... never, EVER again!!!) so I used that.
You could probably just use water if you don't want to bother with formula, the texture just won't be as "creamy", KWIM?

I used BM for the first month, then when we were cleared to give fruits/veggies, I would mix the cereal with jarred food ann water.

I pump every morning. I freeze that milk and take an old bag out of the freezer to use for cereal or in his sippy cup. I like that her gets an ounce or so of milk when he eats his cereal.

Re: EBF moms...what do you mix cereal with?
either BM or Formula - I like that its BM because I know she will finish her cereal - she doesn't always finish her bottles, so I feel frustrated that I pumped all that milk just so she can leave an ounce of her bottle...
At least with the cereal I know shes getting it!

I've been freezing BM in 1 oz bags in anticipation of cereal (we should get the okay this week). I added a pumping session right before I go to bed to get that last oz.

DS will NOT eat/drink anything with formula (which is why I'm going to have a big problem trying to wean him on to it!)
I started with bm, but since I BF him either right before or right after a solid feeding, I just use purified water.

BM..but I never pumped for it...just took the bowl up to my boob and hand expressed some in before nursing...so I was always full.
