Hi my baby completed 5 months when can I start her solids and what type of food should I give her and how many times should I give her solids and milk please suggest

A. Dear mum, you should start giving solids after another month, I.e., once your baby completes 6 months. Until then you should exclusively breastfeed. You can begin with foods like porridge, kheer, homemade cerelac, fruit purée. Then dal rice with vegetables, khichadi, curd. Later mashed paneer. Beginning with 3-4 teaspoons, give 2 to 3 meals a day and up to half katori every time.
