A. First of all you have to start the solids only after the baby completes six months of age. You will find a mini recipes on YouTube and homemade Cerelac will be a better option and you can also start giving fruits. You can join traditional baby weaning page on FacebookWrite Your Answer Here

A. It's generally recommended to wait until a baby is 6 months old before introducing solids like Cerelac. While some parents may introduce solids slightly earlier, it's crucial to consult with a pediatrician for personalized advice and to ensure your baby is ready for the transition.
