Baby porridge or rolled oats?

yeah it’s totally fine ! branded baby porridge is just a sales thing
Sometimes branded baby porridge is fortified with extra nutrients, but either is fine really. I used my own oats and I did blend up my oats for awhile when I made mine at home, and as I got more comfortable I started giving them more lumpy and then whole. Whatever you and your baby are comfortable with!
Cerelac is good because it has a lot of calories and vitamins
I used to make it with normal oats then blend it yes
I just cooked up the oatmeal. Baby loved it!
Baby branded porridge is a con, just buy regular oats - baby can have them as they are (cooked), it’s not unsafe.
We started with baby porridge but there's so much crap added to it that I changed to blitzed rolled oats and made porridge that way... plus it's cheaper
@PeachyQueen yes, but unfortunaly more then 50% of Cerelac is sugar. Simple oats or with fruits are more healtyer.
I’ve never bought baby branded oats I just make porridge with normal oats and given it. Done this for 2 babies, never blended and did it straight from 6 months. Just maybe add a bit more milk if you’re worried
