A. Start with a very small quantity.. start with only half spoon of cerlac (rice + dal + jeelakarra) add around 2 and half glass water for half spoon boil and give that semi solid first don't worry it's common start with small quantity and gradually increase it

A. Hello dear parent! Any change in the diet will definitely effect your child’s digestion. Start giving new foods in small quantities to check the suitability and for better assimilation. Mashed Bananas and apple purées are good for digestion and reducing constipation. Keep your baby hydrated all through the day while feeding solids. Speak to your doctor for further advice.
