You should never attempt to feed your baby Cerelac, or baby solid food in a bottle unless he has a specific medical condition and your paediatrician recommends doing so. Feeding Cerelac in a feeding bottle is a choking hazard and takes away from the amount of milk your baby needs. You should prepare Cerelac Cereal strictly following the instructions on the package – i.e., using sterilized lukewarm water and the recommended amount of infant food cereal.
