I did rice but he hated it so we quickly moved onto oatmeal. And then we tried barley but he didn't like that either.

We just started today (so much fun!!) with rice. DS did okay with it, but he gets constipated easily so if that is the case we will switch to oatmeal.

We did rice then oatmeal then barley.

ETA, DD had minor constipation when we started the cereals so I put a little prune juice in her cereal until we added fruits.

What was her allergic reaction? We just started oatmeal the other day and dd had huge spit ups. Is that an allergic reaction?
