A. for 1 year old ... you can give everything you eats as a family with the limited spices... you can give him full cream cow milk... limit the dairy products quantity upto 500 ml per day.. this includes milk also.. if you give more than that it will subside the hunger for other food... feed him in small quantity but in time gap of 2-3 hours... You can give him 5 times solid meal with milk in between... give him 5 servings of fruits and veggies each everyday... try to include whole grains and protein in his diet.. don't add additional ghee or oil in the baby food.... The amount you used to cook food is enough... No need to add additional...

A. Hello..once child is one year your baby should be taking 3-4 milk feeds and 3-4 solid feeds (3/4 cup in each feed). Keep a gap between solid and milk feeds, offer solid feed only after a 2-3 hours of milk feed, Try giving more of finger foods, same foods as the rest of the family is eating and encourage self feeding as babies enjoy it. , Offer more of finger foods, which can be mainly sandwiches cut in different sizes, made with whole wheat Bread, cheese/paneer or veggie sticks or prepare omelet or pancake/paratha with different variations and cut it into different shapes with biscuit cutter. Offer milk as milk shake, smoothie with many varieties of fruits and veggies.
