* Iron-enriched infant is a good first food for your baby
* Rice cereal is not likely to cause an allergy, so it is good first food
* Try first feeding of cereal at a time when your baby is well-rested and not too hungry
* Use a spoon to feed cereal to your baby. Do not put a cereal in a bottle; your baby should learn to eat from a spoon-even if it seems to take a long time.
* First feeding should be just a few spoonfuls of a very thin mixture of cereal and formula or breast milk. Thicker cereal is fine for older babies.
