A. dear parent, water and solids should be introduced only after completion of 6 months. until then you should exclusively breastfeed. after completion of 6 months, you can begin with foods like porridges (like rice, Ragi, wheat flour , moong dal and rice flour mix) , kheer. then dal-rice with vegetables, veg khichadi, soft mashed fruits, curd. give 2 to 3 meals in a day and up to half katori every time. continue breastfeeding
