A. Dear mum, you should not start solids at the age of 5 months. You should exclusively breastfeed your baby till 6 months complete. Breast milk is most nutritious and complete food for baby till 6 months.

A. Hello mom You should start giving solids and water to your baby only once your baby turned six months old till the time you should not start giving it and baby should be totally on mother’s milk. Mothers milk contains all the nutrition’s baby need a regular diet plan so there is no need to give anything else
