Janani ViswanathanMom of 2 children4 years agoA. Keep feeding Breastmilk. But as the child grows older he or she will need other nutrients as well. So it's good to slowly introduce other foods as well after the baby completes six months. You can Start with Dal or chawal ka pani, after few days start with Fruit purees like apples, pear, avacado, papaya, mashed banana, vegetable puree like carrots, pumpkin, peas, mashed sweet potato or potatoes, pulses, porridge like ragi or oats, veg rice, dal rice, veg kichdi, RASAM rice, steamed idli, home made cereals. Start with easily digestible foods first during day time and then move on to the heavy ones. Always follow this two day gap rule between introducing new foods. Also avoid using sugar and salt until the baby is one year old.
