A. thats fine absolutely. you can feed egg, paneer soya, halwa, banana. a great variety if home made stuff guarantee weight gain plus health as well. that ensures appropriate milestone in time for babies. ok.

A. In 1.7 years, a baby should consume atleast 500-550 ml milk everyday. If he does not drink plain milk, try to mix powdered dry fruits to increase the flavour and nutritional value. Also, feed made from it like oats with nuts, milkshakes with dry fruits, custards, curd, paneer, buttermilk, dalia, kheer, etc. as these will fulfill the calcium requirement.
