Should I Decrease Milk Intake While Feeding Cerelac To My Baby?
Hi, I have just started my baby on Cerelac as she is 4 months in a few days as recommended by our pediatrician. My question is should I be limiting the amount of milk that she is given inbetween her breakfast/lunch/dinner cerelac? From the evening onwards we give her milk as normal.
Many thanks

HELLO THANX FOR USING HCM
Once you start new foods the child reduces consumption of breast feed.
you can give cerelac 2-3 times a day. In the beginning consistency should be semiliquid maintain hygeine by using boiled water only.Dont over feed the child.
you can give rice gruels and dal gruels ,fresh fruit juice, strained vegetable soup starting at 4 months of age and you can breast feed the child during night if required.
