not eating cereal in the morning?

DS loves his cereal now, but it's a huge fight to get him to eat in the mornings. at night, no problem - he gobbles it down. i really wanted him to be eating 3x a day by the next week or so (cereal in the morning and night and veggies for lunch).

is it a big deal if i only feed him cereal for lunch and dinner?

Re: not eating cereal in the morning?

DS was not a big cereal eater in the AM either in the beginning. As long as your ped thinks it is OK, (mine said it was fine) then I see no problem with it.

He may just not be in the mood for it yet, maybe try it an hour later and see if he takes it.

If he doesn't, it's not a big deal at all - lunch and dinner are just fine!

Don't stress too much... He will tell you when he is ready.

I only fed DD cereal one time a day so I don't think it is a prob at all. My Ped was fine with it too.

Oh.....Logan will eat his but not so eagerly as lunch & dinner. He is a LIGHT eater in the AM.....sometimes taking only 4 oz of formula.

This morning he took only 4 oz formula then he had cereal & fruit but ate very SLOWLY! If he doesn't want it, I stop.

Let DS let you know if he is hungry!
