A. Dear parent, you should cook ragi with milk. Apart from the foods that you have mentioned, you can give ragi porridge, homemade cerelac, curd, paneer, variety of seasonal fruits. Watery food like soup fills baby’s small stomach and reduces the appetite for other food. Prefer to give vegetable purée instead. Continue to breastfeed.
