Hi 
Give feeding on demand 
Gradually stop feeding at night and then day 
Give well balanced nutritious food including fat carbohydrates protein 
Give more solid foods in daytime 
Make meal time fun with toys 
initially in the initial  stage you can introduce some semi solid food to the baby like Banana mango plum boiled Apple  and then gradually you can stayrt with some purie of carrot potato and some  other foods which can be given are porridge of suji  sabudana which can be made in breast milk or formula milk. initially you can start with one or two  tsp which can be gradually increased up till at least three meals in a day
