ExpertDr. Swapnil SaxenaAyurvedic Physician3 years agoA. do not worry because baby is 8 month old and now he is not totally dependent on breast milk so After your baby has completed 6 month of age, you can gradually start weaning foods.
Keep in mind that weaning is a gradual and time taking process and baby takes time to switch to foods, other than breast milk.
You can start with rice porridge, Ragi porridge.
Also you can give mashed fruits like chikoo, banana, papaya, pureed Apple, etc. You should avoid giving animal milk to the baby before he is 1 year old and also avoid salt and sugar for him till that age.
Simple homemade foods which are easy to digest fresh ,Cerelac nestum can be offered.
keep giving water also after 6 month complete and breast feeding to be continued too.

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy3 years agoA. Yes, it is safe to fast while breastfeeding. Your body will produce enough milk to satiate your baby. This happens because your body tunes to the new way of burning calories to produce milk. Rather your body is capable of producing milk for your baby even if you do not eat anything for 24 hours.
