A. Exclusive breastfeeding is advisable till the time the baby completes 6 months of age. Once the baby completes 6 months, you can start giving one solid meal or one semi solid meal per day initially and then increase gradually. Give either rice Ka Pani or Dal Ka Pani or rice porridge or any one fruit puree or stewed pear or stewed apple or any one vegetable puree or clear vegetable soup. Give sips of water in between meals. Check Babyhug Fruit And Food Nibbler : It is a great way to introduce your baby to new vegetables and fruits. It is ideal for feeding fruits and veggies such as bananas, carrots and melons. Babies can chew and enjoy food with minimised risk of choking.
