A. Namaste Father , Baby is expected to mostly double their birth weight by the age of 4 to 6 months and later triple by the age of 1. as per the age baby should be given soft foods, here you could include foods such as rice, roti, dal, panner , curds,ghee, egg yolk , nuts and seeds etc sago

A. You’re looking for food and recipes you can refer to the Baby media planner section over there find hundreds of different recipes to offer also I would recommend you to give proper vegetarian protein from the age of nine months onwards introduce all family foods to the child
