A. You can give everything at this age which u make at home for family. Just avoid extreme spicy, extreme sweet, and oily food items. Give all types of food items which baby like, make it tasty and colourful which attract baby. Give all types of fruit and fruit juices including seasonal fruits also. Provide more green vegetables in diet Can add dry fruit powder in food items It will help Keep ur baby well hydrated Restrict milk to 500 ml per day You can continue breast feeding till 1.5 yrs of age.

A. The weight of your baby is increasing at a perfect pace. Please do not worry about it. However in case you are concerned and want some tips then i would suggest you to follow few steps. Though we should not worry that much about weight at such an early age. However as you wish to know about few things would suggest you to add bananas, sweet potatoes and potatoes to your baby's diet. Apart from this try to feed full cream milk to your little one. In case​ your little one is choosy about food do not worry in case of milk you can give full cream by making custard. It's loved by every child. All you have to do is make custard as per the directions given on the box once its cooked and refrigerated. Your child will love it. Apart from this once your child grows 1 year of age you can give overnight soaked in water dryfruits like almonds and walnuts 2-3 of each to your child. Soaking in water will make them cool and will help your child strengthen from within. Also give malai bread toast to your child post 8 months of age. In case you have eggs then post 1 year of age give boiled eggs to your child. Give egg yolk too as it has fats which will help put on weight. You may also give sheera made of aata and suji at the moment. All you have to do is take a tablespoon of aata and roast in 2 tablespoons of ghee. Roast till light brown however do not let it burn. Then add a bowl of water and whisk so that no lumps are formed. Once dropping consistency then add sugar as per taste. Remove from flame. Let it cool a bit and serve it. It helps in putting on weight and strengthen​s the body from within. Yes wheat bread can be given
