My daughter is 5 months old, she is not taking the feed from her mother properly, she is taking the feed for about 2 minutes after that she refuses. We are concerned whether she is taking the required amount. What could be the reason and how to improve the situation ? Can solids be introduced ? if yes which one is recommended

A. You must be wondering what should be served as the first food for your baby at 5 months of age. Here is a list of food items that can be included in a 5-months baby's food chart. These food items are known as stage 1 food for babies. • Breast milk or formula milk • Mashed banana, mashed avocado, pear sauce, and apple puree • Well cooked, pureed and strained carrot, peas, sweet potato or pumpkin • Pulse soup or daal ka paani, after boiling pulse in adequate water (preferably moong daal water) • Rice water after boiling rice in sufficient water • Sago water
