A. no, not at this age. No other foods or fluids – including water – are not necessary till 6 months.  Exclusive breast feed your baby two hourly and on demand . Breast milk is the recommended source of nutrition for infants, especially during the first six months of life

A. It is recommended to introduce semi solid foods in baby's diet between the age of 5-6 months as by then their immunity and digestive system develop a bit. Yes, you can now give mashed banana, apple, carrot and pear puree, mixed vegetable soup, lentil puree, ragi and sooji porridge, etc. Start slow with 4-6 spoons per serving and twice a day.
