My five month old is starting to prefer her cereal over her bottle.

this morning she took 3 hours just to finish one 8 oz bottle. she would take a few sips at a time and then the rest of the time she would play with it. have any of you had this issue?

my daughter loves to eat cereal. i give her like 3-4 tablespoons in one sittin and in the morning i mix in a fruit and for dinner she gets a veggie. its funny cuz her father can not feed her, she thinks its play time lol

My son did that same thing. At first I thought it was a nipple issue, so I replaced all his nipples. That didn't help, so I asked the doctor about it and he said to start giving him 3 meals a day. It seems to have helped.
