A. Dear mom, you have trained the child by giving soft textured foods, by the age of one year the child has to eat all the foods eaten by the family members, do not give miximashed foods, try different color foods like mashed beetroot with rice or carrots in food and add boiled and mashed carrot in ildy batter and preapre idly, try giving hand mashed foods initially and change to normal food.

A. Dalia and fruits are OK but stop giving cerelac. It seems your baby is used to it and hence prefering only this textured food. Make sure to eat along with the baby to encourage. At this age a baby should be on completely family food. Keep offering. It will be tough in the beginning and gradually the baby will accept it

A. Try giving ur baby finger foods (without choking hazard and you are sure ur baby can chew well and eat) which ur baby can feed on their own . Don't worry about the mess. Some babies don't like to eat until they explore the food themselves. Also try to change the routine menu and introduce new recipes following the two day gap rule. Use different colored plates in different shapes and different types of spoons in different colours to get ur child's attention.
