A. Hi you should start turnips after 7th month as if you should not mix the flavours as your baby have just started taking solids, At 6 months old you can start with Rice and dal blended ,Boiled and mashed potato,sweet potato,carrot, Pureed vegetables and fruits, porridges of rawa or ragi ,mashed banana ,chicoo..start with 1 spoon 1 time in a day and gradually increase.Always remember a 3 days rule before introducing new foods like when u start with something continue the same food for 3 days and see if the baby is comfortable with that food and then you can introduce a new one.

A. it will be better if you add turnip 8 months onwards. after completing 6 months you have to start with liquid foods like moong dal Pani, overcooked Khichdi, Daliya.. you also introduce some seasonal fresh fruits like mashBanana ,mash sweet potato, boiled and mash potato carrot soup.. Also you have to give food in every three to four hours gap.. and give two times breastfeeding Make sure you follow the 3 day rule with all new foods to be aware of any allergy. and start giving food in a small quantity first Always be in the room with your baby when he’s eating. . With a new food, introduce small amounts at a time.
