Introducing rice cereal to baby

Can I start introducing rice cereal to my 4 months old baby? It seem that the recommended time is at 6 months old... How and when can I start? Any recommendation for the type of rice cereal?

Did your PD advice you to introduce rice cereal to your LO? My LO started rejecting milk at 4 months old and PD advice to slowly introduce solid to him. (LO was sick of drinking milk and had show interest in the food we eat😂) PD recommend CERELAC BROWN RICE OR RICE. You can buy a small tin to try out first. Not many baby can accept the taste. My LO prefer the vegetable version instead. The consistency for the rice cereal is quite thick so you might want to add abit of rice cereal in the FM or BM first. Slowly build up the consistency and feed your baby with spoon. By the way, can your LO hold his head and sit upright?
