Re: those that put rice cereal in bottle....
yes--the formula weighs down with the cereal and they spit up alot less. I tried it 1 or 2x then stopped until they were 4 months. I still put in formula and use a y nipple sometimes. I eyed it. I think my doc said 1 tbsp per 4 ounces. so like I said Ii eyed it. I dk how much your dc drinks. I'm sure if the doc said that much its fine...eye and it and see if its too think--

We did this when they suffered from reflux. The ratio was 1tsp/oz.

My doctor said 1 teaspoon for every 4 ounces of formula. It worked WONDERS for my DS.
