A. Hi dear good morning You can give a little thicker foods by now Breakfast idli, steamed dosa, soaked poha n milk, dalia, kichidi, oats porridge Lunch mashed blended rice with dal rasam curd let sambar be watery, include veggies to rice.. Dinner blended rice with milk, blended chapati with milk, cerlac, idli steamed dosa with milk,During mid day or evening you can give soups easy Chewing veggies fruits. Still milk is the highly nutrients food. Try to feed 3-4 times during the day. And night feeds on demand. Give warm milk before sleep. Try to feed for longer duration. 15-20 mins each breast. This way baby will get balanced foremilk and hind milk. Foremilk comes in the beginning for 5-10 mins then comes the hind milk which is rich in fats and can help baby gain weight. So always empty a breast each
