Cepheus is one more week to 6 months old! And we have since started him on rice cereal for twice a day since last week and he is responding well to it! However, he will refuse his milk after we gave him his rice cereal.. guess he loves his cereal as he downs them real fast.. but will take his own sweet time to finish his milk! I have totally stopped expressing milk starting from this week and Cepheus is on full formula since friday as we ran out of reserves and supply already. I am more than happy and satisfied already that i have managed to breast feed him for at least 6 months!! i felt a sense of achievement haha.. oh and today, i just made some pumpkin puree for him, stored in my fridge and just enough for the next three days I hope he responds well to the puree i have made specially for him tomorrow! oh i am so excited!
Wow!!! So fast on cereal liao..great great...excited to read more on the progress too. PD told me i can mix milk and cereal for Rhys when he is 4 mths, but I feel super early, and i dare not try. I think I still will wait awhile more more...
hmm my PD encourage that if the baby is already on formula then can start early on cereal, but if he is on total breast milk then better wait till later.. don't start too early la.. cos once you start.. they will not want milk anymore.. we have hard time feeding Ceph with milk nowadays.. most times sleep feed...
