how many times a day does your child eat cereal?

I am currently feeding my 4 1/2 month old daughter cereal mixed with fruit or vegetables 3 times a day. (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) each with a bottle as well as an afternoon bottle and night time bottle.
do you feel this is too much cereal to give? Am I supposed to be giving her cereal only once a day and only the fruit/veggie at the other feedings?

What do you do? I believe my pediatrician said to do this but my mother feels it is alot.
My daughter does not spit up alot and is still hungry about every 3 hours.

TIA!

First of all, you may want to post this on the Parenting board to get more responses!

I wasn't feeding my kids cereal yet at that age, we started them at 6 months.

But, once my kids were taking cereal, they were having it 2 times a day. Breakfast and dinner. With a fruit or a vegetable.

Breakfast was cereal with fruit, lunch was a fruit and veggie, and dinner was cereal with veggie.

I agree with posting this on the Parenting board, you will get a lot more responses there.

I started DD on rice ceral at 4 months once or twice a day

She is 18 months now and has cereal once a day, usually in the morning at breakfast or morning snack.
