baby rice

i started my 5 month old on baby rice and moved to a brand which has 4 grains, she has started waking at 3am for the past few nights and seems to have nappy rash too. is this a coincidence or does it sound like an allergy? she doesn't seem to be bothered by it during the day but has become v unsettled at night. she only has a small amount after milk twice a day with fruit puree.
anyone experienced anything similar?
thank you

what grains does it contain? If any of them contain wheat/gluten then they should be avoided until after 6 months. I would stop the other cereal and see if she improves

thanks. it says it's suitable from 4 months and is a 'gluten free blend of quinoa, wholegrain rice, millet and amaranth'. but maybe i will go back to the bog standard rice one and see if it makes a difference. i just this looked better for her!
thank you
