A. Yes, you can start semi solid foods in the diet of baby. Start slow with 4-6 spoons per serving and twice a day. Feed foods like lentil puree, mashed banana, apple, carrot and pear puree, mixed vegetable soup, khichdi, ragi and sooji porridge, home made cerelac, etc. Milk will still remain main meal with 850 to 1000 ml intake everyday.
