#asktheexpert My baby will be starting semi solid food by next month. What are the food items which could be introduced in his daily diet. TIA

A. At 6 months, start with one meal.increase meals slowly to offer 2-3 meals by 8months. also you can start with mashed rice and include dal after a week . after that has settled down you can start with vegetable purees and fruit purees. keep a gap of three days between two new ingredients. please note mothers milk remains the main source of nutrition until one year.
