Hello mom 
Firstly you are not Giving a sufficient diet to your baby. Now you should start giving cereals, Chapati, oats, ragi, rice, vegetables, fruits. You can add all these things in babies regular diet plan and you are still just giving cerelac and BM. Maybe should take at least 4 to 5 meals in a day so maintain a diet plan according to that
