Mixing Baby Rice In A Bottle

It's really is amazing how many different different rice cereals there are out there in the Australian market at the moment, the prices can vary considerably too.

If you are out to choose a baby cereal choose one that does not contain any preservatives, preferably certified organic, does not contain any added salt and if sweetened make sure it is with fruit juice only. Try Holle Organic Rice Porridge.

It's amazing how many mother's ask me how to mix rice cereal or porridge into a baby bottle. Well there are a number of ways but, from my experience, this is the best way.

Mixing Baby Rice In A Bottle

  1. Sterilize baby bottle and teat
  2. Add required formula to baby bottle - as per direction
  3. Add 1-4 teaspoons of rice cereal/porridge
  4. Fill bottle with boiling water to slightly under halfway (does not matter what size bottle as measurement are all relative)
  5. Screw teat on and shake until all ingredients are absorbed into water
  6. Add cold, filtered water from fridge till full
  7. Shake again to mix cold water, hot water and cereal
  8. Temperature and mix should be perfect
Remember to always test the temperature of your babies bottle before given it to her.

Good luck.
