A. 1) if your baby showes sign of readiness for solids you can start--Your baby is able to sit on a chair with back support. Baby’s head & neck are stable. Baby can open and close the mouth around a spoon. Baby is ready to chew. He is curious and tries to grab & put food in his mouth. Baby is still hungry after breastfeeding/formula feeding & shows interest in food. 2) use pampers premium or huggies bubble bed diapers.

A. hi 1.no only after 6 months age , you can start to offer semisolid food to your child. but till that , please stick to breastfeeding only. 2.if a child weighs more than 3 kg ,one can use diapers ,but no for whole day. you can use it occasionally or for night time only. I would suggest Babyhug brand for this.
