Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. outside food / weaning / complementary is started after 6 months of ahe of the child.
at the end of 6 months you have to start gradually all types of food to which the child is not allergic and does not have digestion problem as well as the child is able to swallow the food.
cereals pulses vegetable
gradually from few spoons per day(cereals pulses vegetable) you have to shift to half katori (100ml) three times per day till 9 months of age.
fruits
from six months to nine months you have to give few 2 pieces of fruit and then shift to half a katori 2 times per day.
if breastfeeeding is going on you can continue at regular interval. and if youu are giving outside milk then it should be around 700 to 800 ml per day.
homemade food is better compared to outside packet foods and processed foods

shreya goelMom of 2 children2 years agoA. Hello mom
You have to wait till you baby turned six months old and only you can start giving solids and water to your baby. Till the time baby should be totally on mother’s milk. Mother’s milk contains all the nutritious baby needs. So there is no need to give anything else to 6 months.
