Hello, my son is allergic to milk also, as well as soy. We use Earth's Best (organic) rice cereal and also Beechnut Oatmeal cereal. Neither of them contain milk or soy. The Earth's Best is available at most Walmarts and Giant Eagle also. Good luck!

If he has any allergies it would really be best to wait, no matter what kind of cereal it is. The AAP recommends introducing solids around 6 months of age. Starting earlier can increase the child's chances of allergies.....so if he already has problems, it's really best to hold off a while.

youll have to pick up gerber or one of the organic varieties that abound on the supermarket shelfs...they wont be premixed but then you can control consistency. Beechnut also is milk free.
