#asktheexpert 7 month baby ko food me kiya dena chahiye

A. At 7 months, your baby can have a mix of breast milk/formula and soft, mashed solids to support growth and development. Start with iron-rich, nutrient-dense foods in small portions and gradually increase variety. Food Options for a 7-Month-Old Baby: ✅ Fruits – Mashed banana, apple puree, pear, papaya, chikoo, or avocado. ✅ Vegetables – Well-cooked and mashed carrot, sweet potato, pumpkin, bottle gourd, or spinach. ✅ Cereals & Grains – Rice porridge, dal khichdi, suji kheer, ragi porridge, or oats porridge. ✅ Protein Foods – Masoor dal, moong dal, mashed boiled egg yolk (start slowly), paneer, or tofu. ✅ Dairy – Plain homemade curd or yogurt (avoid cow’s milk before 1 year). ✅ Finger Foods (if baby can hold) – Soft steamed carrot sticks, banana slices, or cooked apple wedges. Feeding Tips: ✔ Feed 2-3 solid meals per day along with breast milk or formula. ✔ Introduce one new food at a time and wait 3-4 days to check for allergies. ✔ Ensure food is soft, mashed, or pureed to avoid choking. ✔ Avoid salt, sugar, honey, nuts, and processed foods before 1 year.
