A. Hello Breastfeeding is the best nutrition for baby till baby completes 6 months of age Incase if breastmilk is not enough then formula milk can be started Post 6 months, liquids can be started like dal water, rice water, vegetables soup later soft solids can be added like mashed apple, mashed banana. khichadi dal rice

A. Until six months you should be exclusively breastfeeding the baby. Babies won't require any other additional nutrients other than breastmilk. If really required or if breastfeeding becomes difficult or not possible formula can be given after consulting with your doctor. But until six months no solid foods or semisolids, not even water. So u can Stick only to breastmilk or formula till the baby completes six months.
