Weetabix?

[Pregnopaws]

Just a quickie ladies! Can you give babies weetabix from 6 months on? And if so, do you make it up with formula instead of cows milk. A friend said that Cheerios (the oat and not the honeynut kind) are better for them, but I think they're harder to pick up for first time foods?

Lily has been having Oatibix for the last 2weeks. I make it up with her formula and put a dollop of blended fruit or jar fruit puree ontop. She loves it

According to Annabel Karmel, it's OK to give Weetabix from 6 months. I use formula milk to make it up but LO doesn't really like eating it unless I've mixed it with some fruit puree too.

I gave James weetabix mixed with formula from 6 months, but im not sure what the advice is now.
He loved it and refused to eat anything else for months!

I give Jenna weetabix about twice a week (I use organix cereal the other days) - I mix it with formula but am going to start using a from / cows milk mix and gradually swap to just cows milk (it is a very different flavour, not so sweet, so going to do it gradually). I gave Jenna weetabix for the first time at about 7 months

Weetabix is fine from 6 months. Its about the only cereal that is firm enough to stay on the spoon as it gets wafted about so LO can feed herself (she is very independent). I think its revolting myself but she seems to love it.
