My baby is 5.5 months, he drinks 4 daily bottles 600ml total and eats one daily veggies or fruits meal. I feel it's not enough for him... Should I add cereal to each bottle?

You can certainly introduce cereals into your baby’s diet, but do not add them to his milk bottle and also feed him veggies. It's better that you prepare a plate with one type of cereals, preferably starting with rice, and have him eat this as his solid food. Wait 3-5 days before introducing another type of cereals, like wheat. Then you can start mixing vegetables with rice (mashed into a soft preparation).
