I just buy the box of cereal & mix it with her formula. Its a lot and only costs 3.47 or something. I can imagine jars WOULD be expensive

I've been told ready brek with cow's milk from 6 months and weetabix too. I give them both to Mark and I also give him normal porridge made from oats like I make for myself but I know some people worry about the salt etc in normal breakfast cereals.

I would personally stick to baby cereals... Baby products are iron fortified and from 6 months to 2 years it is very important for babies to have added iron to their diets. As well as other vital vitamins... Which is why baby stuff costs more. The iron issue is why its recommended to start weaning by 6 months too. I dont know what iron or vitamin readybrek has because we dont have it here... but I would compare it to baby cereal first.
