A. you have to continue milk for total of completion of 6 months of age and complementary feeding is started only after completion of 6 months of age because before that it can cause digestion problem

A. Hello dear parent! Ideally semi solids and water should be given only after 6 months completion. Till then the baby should be either exclusively breastfed or formula fed only. Both the breastmilk and formula milk will suffice the hydration and nutrition requirements. Continue feeding your baby well on demand. Massage your baby with Babyhug massage oil for skin warmth.
