A. No.. it's advice to start complementary food after 6 months.. Try to feed in dark room..play some soft white noice. If you can bf as much as possible and express after feed and try to feed with spoon. You can also dream feed your baby

A. hi no after completion of 6 months age,you can start to give semisolid food to your child. but till that please stick to breastfeeding or formula infact ,the more your child latches ,the more milk is produced ,so please offer plenty of feeds to your child. you can take leptadin tablet or shatavary granular with warm milk.
