Author of questionGuardian of 2 children7 years agoA. Dear Deepa..if your baby is active no need to worry.I think your baby weight is not below average but you can take suggestions from your pediatrician.

Bhurabi BharaliMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy7 years agoA. no.. nothing should be given before 6 months..
exclusively breastfeeding is recommended upto 6 months..
As the baby's digestive system is still developing.. It cannot digest other things... Breastmilk is the best for the baby...All the nutritional requirements of the baby are met by the breastmilk upto 6 months..
Not even water should be given to the baby...
If unable to breastfeed then go for formula milk only..
after completing 6 months.. You can start weaning food... start with liquid diet like rice water, dal ka pani etc then gradually go for semi solid food... so start after 6 months
