A. During the monsoon season, it's important to offer foods that are not only nutritious but also safe and easy to digest, given the potential for seasonal infections. Here are some suggestions for a 1 year and 9-month-old: 1. **Warm Soups and Stews**: Light, warm soups and stews made with vegetables and lentils can be soothing and nutritious. 2. **Seasonal Fruits**: Offer fruits that are in season, like apples and pears. Avoid fruits that might be prone to spoilage in humid weather. 3. **Well-Cooked Vegetables**: Steamed or cooked vegetables are easy on the stomach and provide essential nutrients. 4. **Whole Grains**: Include foods like rice, whole grain porridge, or soft-cooked roti. Ensure they are well-cooked and easy to digest. 5. **Protein Sources**: Incorporate easily digestible proteins like well-cooked eggs, chicken, or fish. 6. **Dairy Products**: Offer plain yogurt or paneer. Ensure these are fresh and stored properly to avoid contamination. 7. **Hydration**: Keep your baby hydrated with safe, boiled water or clear fluids. Avoid giving them water from uncertain sources. 8. **Avoid Street Food**: Refrain from giving your baby any street food or uncooked foods to minimize the risk of gastrointestinal infections. Ensure all foods are freshly prepared and served at the right temperature to prevent any digestive issues.
