Hi Dr., I am a mother of 10 month old baby. I started solids from 6 months. Since then he used to poop after each meal. Now he is having 3 times a meal and mid morning fruits and evening fruits. Each time he eats meal he starts to poop. His poop is normal. The only thing is he used to poop 3 - 5 times a day immediate after each meal. Should I take this into concern? Is this normal?

A. Weaning food can be started from 5-6 months of age and in that 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 start with some purie of carrot potato and some other foods which can be given are porrifdge of suji sabudana which can be prepared in breast milk or formula milk. initially you can startt with one or two tsp which can be gradually increased up till at least three meals in a day
