Solids before six months

Hey parents! Anyone start their baby on oatmeal before six months?

Ever since 3 months my baby struggles with getting through the night without a couple of feedings. She gets lots throughout the day, but I’ve always been a “just enough” supplier. She’s a really good sleeper and happily goes back to sleep after a feed.

She will be five months soon and has great head control and is pretty much sitting up unassisted.

I know the standard is to “ask your doctor” but in Canada we just have family doctors and they don’t really do assessments like that.

If you did choose to feed cereal/oatmeal, how did your baby handle it?

please for the love of all that is holy, do not comment things like “that is fine your baby needs breastmilk” or passive aggressive comments saying how I shouldn’t. I’m just exploring some options to decide what’s best
