I started my son on Farex rice cereal at 4 1/2 months, with no problems. At 5 months I gave him some with a bit of fresh pureed mango mixed in, with no problems. A couple days later we did it again, and he had a big vomit. He continued to gag and vomit for 1.5 hours, then had a breastmilk feed, another big vomit, and then he was ok. I waited a week to give him solids again (he may be teething and has been cranky). Today I gave him a small feed of Farex. He had three small spoons then refused it. Later he did the vomiting thing again, not as bad because he hadn't consumed as much.
It didn't occur to me that the rice cereal was the problem, since it had been fine before. I have been keeping it sealed, clean, and dry, and have had it open less than a month so am not concerned about contamination. Other than this my son is a very happy healthy baby.
Does anyone know why he would be fine on the cereal to start, and now get sick on it?
