#AskTheExpert Good morning Doctor, My daughter has turned 6 months, Should I Introduce her to other Foods? What are the best foods for 6- 8 Months Baby? Do I have to do any check up first before starting first food? She is still feeding Breast milk and the supply is good. Do I still have to introduce Formula Milk? Regards

A. as you mentioned that the child has completed 6 months of age in that situation you can go ahead and start with semi solids there is absolutely no problem with that initially start with cerelac rice for 2 weeks and then you can switch to cerelac wheat as far as home-cooked meals are concerned you can give suji sheera atashira which are healthy and nutritious boiled and mashed Apple puree mashed banana with a pinch of rock salt in it is advisable however breastfeed or formula feed should be given simultaneously as well
