You can try giving baby oatmeal cereal or mixed grain. Either of those should be fine. Try one at a time to make sure he does not have an allergy or reaction to it first. Babies who usually can not digest rice will do better with oatmeal or mixed cereal.

If your child has a rice allergy you may want to delay or completely forgo cereals. Rice is the gentlest, and others may cause more serious reactions. Be sure to wait until about six months before intruducing solids and never put cereal in a bottle! Talk to your doctor about starting solids.

If your baby does not digest rice cereal then he or she is not ready to make the move to cereal. Rice cereal is considered to be one of the mildest cereals for a babies stomach. Your only other option would be oatmeal, which is even harder to digest.
