POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy3 years agoA. It is a good idea to start with rice cereal because it is nutritious and easy to digest. As your baby gets used to rice mixed with dal, soups and purées, you can try other cereals like suji, ragi, bajra, jowar, and sabudaana. Cereals like wheat (gehun) or oats (jaae) can be introduced between six and seven months.Your child can begin eating solid foods at about 6 months old. By the time he or she is 7 or 8 months old, your child can eat a variety of foods from different food groups. These foods include infant cereals, meat or other proteins, fruits, vegetables, grains, yogurts and cheeses, and more.Fruits: Apple, Avocado, Banana, Pears, muskmelon, Peaches, Plums, Prune.Vegetables: Carrot, Pumpkin, Sweet Potato.Cereals & Grains: Rice, Ragi, Barley, Semolina/Suji/Rava, sabudhana/Sago/Tapioca, Ragira/Amaranth/Phool Makhana, Quinoa.Pulses: Yellow Moong Dal.You can start weaning with single vegetables and fruits – try blended, mashed, or soft cooked sticks of parsnip, broccoli, potato, yam, sweet potato, carrot, apple or pear.
