Gerber Non-GMO Baby Oatmeal Cereal Stage 1 - 8oz

A: Thanks for reaching out! Most babies are developmentally ready to begin solid foods including Oatmeal Cereal at around 6 months. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends starting solids at about this age, but it’s always best to check with your pediatrician to determine what’s right for your little one. Signs of readiness include being able to hold their head steady, sit with support, and show interest in food. Once your baby is ready, Gerber single-grain infant cereals can be a great first food. If you have any additional questions, our product experts are available 24/7 at 1-800-4-GERBER (1-800-443-7237).

A: Gerber Cereals contain trace amounts of naturally occurring sugar – this is part of the carbohydrate content noted in the Nutrition Facts. The Nutrition Facts list less than 1 gram of added sugar per serving, which is not a significant amount in the diet. This is from some of the grain starch that is converted to sugar during the process of making our dry cereals. We do this to help give our dry cereal its very fine flake texture. If you have any further questions, please give us a ring at 1-800-4-GERBER (1-800-443-7237) anytime 24/7.
