At 3 months, a baby's gut is not producing the enzymes needed to properly digest carbohydrates.

If it was really okay to give cereal that early, y wld they put an age limit on the box. If u look at a box of gerber cereal it says sitter on it. Im sure a 2 mo old is not sitting. Unless ur pediatrician says its medically necessary, I wouldnt do it.

I have 4 kids and started them all at 1 month. They never had a problem. I just started my gbaby this week so far so good.

Not at 3 months, but when my dd was older I did it.
