We don’t recommend putting cereal or any other solid foods in your baby’s bottle. Here’s why: There isn’t credible reporting that it will help your baby sleep longer and it can actually increase the risk of choking. Plus, it can interfere with your baby’s ability to learn how to eat solids properly (think: drinking instead of eating). It’s best to offer our Baby Cereal with a spoon to ensure safe feeding and help your little one get used to the textures and skills needed for eating solid foods.
