any one gave rice flour to their babies?

posted 29th Aug
my daughter is 1 month old, im not bf, only bottle feeding!. [we have tried similac & emfamil] witch she didnt like none!. now, my mom is telling me to give her rice flour, she said she gave it to me and my other sisters when we were babies and we did just fine with it!..
BUT, im not to sure if i wanna give something like that to my daughter,
of course i have on mind she needs to eat,
yesterday she only ate about 4 times, only 1-2 oz she kept throwing up the formula, or she would just not want to eat it.
.any one feeds rice flour to their babies????
is it good?

add: i called her pedi but they told me they couldnt see her today, because they were full, but she will be seen monday morning!.

That's not good.. she can't wait until Monday! Take her to the ER now!!!!!

Babies neeeeeeeeeed food! Like every 2hrs or so.. and if she's not keeping anything down, then she's not thriving/growing! GO NOW.. GET OFFLINE!

giving her water at this age is not good .... she needs the nutrients in the formula ... have you tried a lactose free formula?
