Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. outside food / weaning / complementary is started after 6 months of ahe of the child.
at the end of 6 months you have to start gradually all types of food to which the child is not allergic and does not have digestion problem as well as the child is able to swallow the food.
cereals pulses vegetable
gradually from few spoons per day(cereals pulses vegetable) you have to shift to half katori (100ml) three times per day till 9 months of age.
fruits
from six months to nine months you have to give few 2 pieces of fruit and then shift to half a katori 2 times per day.e
if breastfeeding is going on you can continue at regular interval. and if you are giving outside milk then it should be areound 700 to 800 ml per day.
homemade food is better compared to outside packet foods and processed foods
RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl1 Year agoA. Initially when the childhood start to eat food it is going to be 10 to 12 teaspoons one time because that is what is the appetite and the child is also going to take time to understand what you are giving so you should give Dal rice water to begin with slowly you can shift to all kind of fruits and vegetables you can give varieties out of of Suji ragi and oats and also also dairy products and porridge and khichadi
