Accepted Answer

Exclusive breastfeeding is advisable till the time the baby completes 6 months of age. Mother's milk till then takes care of water and all other nutritional requirements of baby's body. Once the baby completes 6 months, you can offer one solid meal or one semi solid meal per day initially and then increase gradually. You can give either rice Ka Pani or Dal Ka Pani or rice porridge or mashed carrot or any one vegetable puree or clear vegetable soup or any one fruit puree or stewed pear or stewed apple. Give sips of water in between meals. Check Babyhug Fruit and Food Nibbler 2 in 1 with Mesh and Silicone Sac: It is BPA free. It is a great way to introduce your baby to new fruits and vegetables. It is ideal for feeding fruits and vegetables like carrots, melons and bananas. Babies can chew and enjoy food with minimised risk of choking. The mesh can be easily removed and cleaned.
