A. Hello dear parent! Start giving semi solids and water along with daily intake of breastfeeding. Give small quantities of semi solids like homemade cerelac, mashed bananas, ragi, apple purée, daal or chaaval paani. Give sips of water in between meals. Continue breastfeeding. Start with one new food at a time in mornings.
