A. no dear there is no advantage of early introduction to top food before completing 6 months nothing should be given to the child other than breast milk till six months are complete not even water Breast milk is most nutritious supports growth is safe and complete food for baby introduction of top foods before 6 months can increase risk of infection and even reduce milk supply.

A. Hai good evening !! Yes after 5 complete months you can start semi solid food to baby. Fruit,vegetable puriee,mash,cerelac,porridge,kheer,malts,idly but check suitability. Feed semi solid once or twice a day rest of the day milk either breast feed or formula milk.
