A. Dear parent, apart from the food that you are giving, give milk products like curd, paneer, cheese. Also, add powdered nuts like almonds to baby’s food. Give 4 meals a day and up to three fourth katori every time. Continue to breastfeed. If your baby is active, playful and achieving all growth milestones then do not worry.
