We’re using cereal but much under the recommended amount due to it causing constipation. She also has severe reflux

We use the Gerber organic oatmeal and it has done amazing! We have been doing it for 3 months now and it has helped drastically

I would start small 1tsp at a time to see how she does. My son uses 1 formula scoop in a 4oz bottle. But just see what amount helps her reflux the most.
