Answer 1

Some babies to develop a healthier appitite quicker than other babies - I started feeding both my children infant cereal at like 6 weeks old because there milk wasn't satisfying them and they were wonting more milk than they should eat at a feeding causeinig indigestion and cause them to become to full of milk and end up throwing it back up - I would feed my children about 4 table spoons of infant cereal mixed with their formula BEFORE the bottle - then about the 4-6 ounces of milk afterwards. But start with a spoon don't put the cereal in a bottle unless they have a need for the thicker consitantcy. Doing this may cause your child to develope tooth decay.

my doctor told me in the morning a oz of cereal mixed with formula enough to where its not thick more runny and a fruit in the evening, and bottles in between but when you start on fruit and veggies start with one kind for a week to make sure there is no food allergies if your baby still seems hungry give the bottle believe it or not they will tell you when they are done!!!!!! good luck
