A. Hi momma, please avoid bakery items and biscuits for baby. They are full of artificial ingredients and very low in nutrients. Instead give any homemade foods and fruits as snacks. Avoid salt, sugar, honey and cow's milk till age 1 year. After 1 year baby's appetite is going to reduce. And kids can eat anything that the family eats adjusted for spices. Do not force feed baby. Research on BLW and Traditional weaning techniques for babies.  Give caloric and nutrient dense foods such as avocados, ghee, butter, paneer, cheese, dry fruits like almonds, cashews, raisins, dates, sesame seeds, anjeer, apricots. Use banana, potato, proteins like chana and other pulses in baby's recipes. Don't feed only milk all the time as it can cause anemia in kids and that in turn causes drop in appetite. Ensure that child has a balanced diet with lots of different varieties of vegetables and fruits, multi grains etc. Avoid biscuits, chocolates, cakes, sweets, fried snacks and all processed food.  Attaching sheet for reference. Also see food chart and other info on Parenting section of firstcry app.
