A. thankyou for your responses. His meals include oats, wheat,ragi porridge with fruit mash + vegetable khichdi + dal/liquid sabji roti through out the day. Since he started solids my supply has also started reducing, is there any way to increase it to meet his needs?

A. Hello parent, Give Oatmeal is a wholesome food in itself, extremely healthy for both babies and adults. But here’s the best part: it is also an excellent source of melatonin which helps trigger insulin production. Insulin in turn helps in inducing sleep! You can prepare oatmeal in many different forms, the simplest of which is a porridge, light and easy to digest for babies. We recommend mixing it up with apples to improve both the taste and the nutrition quotient.
