A. Hello dear parent! Ideally semi solids and water should be introduced only after 6 months completion. Till then the baby should be either breastfed or formula fed only. Consult your child’s doctor for advice. Continue breastfeeding your baby. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil.
