We used to mix this with applesauce and breast milk for both kid’s breakfast when starting foods. It was always a hit and the price is acceptable. Nov 03, 2023

Baby's favourite breakfast cereal. We typically add some sort of fruit in but it's good without as well! Sep 14, 2023

I recently started my baby on this (pediatrician recommended) he enjoys it and eats it pretty good. He definitely prefers this flavor over the rice flavored option. Sep 05, 2023

Great for starting out and for thickening baby food that is too runny. But I just found out about the metal shavings thing and now I’m nervous. May 09, 2023

This cereal is great to add to purees as you gradually thicken the food. We also add it often to formula bottles especially late night ones for longer sleep windows. May 02, 2023

Super convenient as a quick breakfast item. Just mix with formula or breastmilk and it’s ready. We liked to add some mashed up fruit once babies were eating solids. Babies loved it. Jul 22, 2022

This was great when I needed to thicken up my baby’s formula. I had to cut a larger hole in the nipple to allow for it to flow, but it worked well after that! Apr 07, 2022

My son can’t eat this cereal fast enough! A way better alternative to the rice cereal. May 26, 2021
Pros: For use as a solid it is great. Cons: For use as an additive to baby bottles it does not dissolve and will gather at the bottem of the bottle. May 23, 2021

When I was starting my daughter on solids I would put some oatmeal cereal in a bowl and mix it with formula. She would gobble it up and smack her lips Oct 19, 2020

My son couldn't handle the rice version of this. He would just cry after eating. I switched to the oatmeal and he is able to tolerate it much better. Oct 10, 2020

This was her second cereal. I mix it with breasmilk. She seems to like it. Sometimes I add a little peanut butter in. I have the cereals also in rice, multigrain, whole wheat. Oct 04, 2019

My youngest loves this oatmeal, especially mixed with apple butter. I have just started cutting up pieces of banana and adding that in to switch up the consistency as he is getting a little older May 12, 2019

My daughter has a dairy allergy and nowhere on the nutrition information does it label it contains milk. She had a bad reaction so I reached out to Gerber and was told they're exempt form putting cross contamination allergy information May 04, 2019
