Lovleena MishraMom of 2 children4 years agoA. It is advisable to start solids once the baby completes 6 months of age. You can start with one solid or one semi solid per day and then increase gradually. Give either rice Ka Pani or Dal Ka Pani or rice porridge or ragi porridge or stewed apples or any one fruit puree or any one vegetable puree or clear vegetable soup. Give sips of water in between meals. If your doctor has suggested introduction of meals once the baby is 5 months old, you can start with liquids such as Dal Ka Pani or rice Ka Pani or clear vegetable soup.
