A. not at all.. No other foods or fluids – including water – are not necessary till first 6 months. Exclusive breast feed your baby two hourly and on demand

A. instead of that you can give your baby rice kheer as a first food.When baby digest it then you can change it with cooked daal water then gradually you can give mixed daal or only rice kheer. There many healthy options like raagi, makhana and oats kheer. I would suggest to give your baby natural food instead of packaged.

A. Oh Absolutely no madam how can you start with all these things before the correct time the correct age is six months completion not before that so please respect that time and go ahead with it when the time arrives as of now you should be sticking to mothers feed and if you do not have sufficient go for formula feeding but no water nothing else
