ExpertDr. Minal AcharyaNutritionist4 years agoA. dear mum, wait for another 11 days for your baby to complete 6 months and only then introduce top food. until then you should exclusively breastfeed.
after completion of 6 months, you can begin with soft and mashed food like porridges (like rice, Ragi, wheat flour , moong dal and rice flour mix) , kheer
then dal-rice with vegetables, veg khichadi, soft mashed fruits, curds,
later mashed paneer cheese, Vegetable Daliya
consistency of food should be like that of ghee
avoid water thin foods like thin dals and rice water, soups. Squeeze lemon in baby's food for iron absorption.
start with 3-4 tsp and then about half katori per meal about 2 to 3 meals per day.
