For those moms who think they need to pump to make baby cereal with breast milk there is an alternative. If you don't want to use formula, I have used baby pear juice and water. Let me tell you it works. My son loved it and he was getting enough milk nursing for his daily intake. I felt like some days he would eat the cereal and other days he wouldn't and it would be a waste of that precious breast milk I had just pumped.
