When preemies can have flakes of cereal in formula depends upon who you talk to. You will get comments from parents of preemies, parents generally speaking, and also your doctor.
Preemie parents will almost always advise you to take the adjusted age of your preemie into account. You can usually tell by observing your baby when they are ready for flakes of cereal in formula.
Parents of full term babies who haven't had a lot of experience with preemies will tell you to start cereal after a couple of months. I would say from my own experience to watch your baby and try giving her cereal in her formula at the 6 month adjusted age.
Doctors that I have spoken to have recommended 6 months of the adusted age is when preemies can have flakes of cereal in formula.
