A. It would be good to avoid giving semi solid before 6 month, but if you're baby shows the readinnes criteria for solids than u may start in a very little quantity.. don't over feed.

A. Nope This is not the correct age to go for it I do not know why your doctor has advised you to start with it so early the correct it is going to be the beginning of the seventh month so as of now you continue with feeding whatever you are maybe your child is having its teeth which is why your child is not having proper feeding
