Adding Cereal to Baby Formula

Adding cereal to a bottle to help a baby sleep is a myth.
myth
It's a myth. If you need to pump in between feedings and supplement with formula not cereal.

HELP on eating/cereal
We have a new soon to be 4 weeks old. Babies this age are supposed to sleep 2 hours or so, no? Though he'll pull a 2 hour strech about 3-4 times in 24 hrs, the rest of the time he eats. I saw this posting because I've heard the cereal story as well. Now that you have deflated our hopes, what do you do with a kid who's pounding 3-5.5 oz of pumped breast milk with maybe 1/4 formula in it off and on for 3-5 hours or so at a time and will maybe take 5 min nap inbetween? He grew 1" and 2lbs in less than 2 weeks!! Help! We are going nuts!
