A. Dear parent, you should continue to give solids 2 to 3 times a day and up to half katori every time. Maintain adequate gap between meals and breastfeeding. Breastfeed baby on demand. You can give few sips of water in between and after meals. Breast milk and food also contain water and fulfils the hydration needs of baby.
