A. For an 8-month-old baby who is getting teeth, you can introduce soft and easily chewable foods that are rich in nutrients. Here are some Indian food options: 1. **Khichdi:** A well-cooked mixture of rice and lentils. You can add vegetables like carrots, peas, and squash for added nutrition. 2. **Mashed Vegetables:** Soft-cooked and mashed vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, sweet potatoes, and peas are easy for a baby to chew. 3. **Dal (Lentil) Soup:** Mildly spiced and well-cooked lentil soup can provide protein and iron. Ensure it's in a smooth consistency for easy consumption. 4. **Soft Chapati or Roti:** Tear it into small, bite-sized pieces. You can also make a soft roti porridge by tearing it into small pieces and mixing it with a bit of milk. 5. **Banana:** A great natural soft food, rich in potassium. Cut it into small, manageable pieces. 6. **Cooked Rice:** Soft, well-cooked rice can be introduced. You can mix it with a small amount of ghee for added flavor. 7. **Curd (Yogurt):** Introduce plain, unsweetened curd. It's a good source of calcium and can be soothing for teething gums. 8. **Pureed Fruits:** Cooked and mashed fruits like apples, pears, or steamed and mashed peaches. These can be gentle on the gums. Remember to introduce new foods one at a time and observe your baby for any signs of allergies or sensitivities. Always ensure that the food is cooked well and cut into appropriate, small pieces to prevent choking hazards. It's recommended to consult with your pediatrician before introducing new foods to your baby's diet.
