A. Namaste Mom, Would rather recommend that you start with liquid consistency foods, were in you can start with dal, rice water, fresh fruit juices, vegetable soup etc, once they get used to it , you may gradually progress to semi solids, and mashed foods, such as ragi porridge, fruits, steamed vegetables as well, also kichidi etc
