A. For a 6-month-old baby in India who needs to gain weight, it's essential to introduce nutrient-rich and calorie-dense foods while considering the baby's ability to digest and tolerate new foods. Always consult with your pediatrician before introducing new foods to your baby's diet. Here are some options to consider: 1. **Homemade Cerelac/Porridge:** - Mix rice, dal (lentils), and a small amount of ghee. Cook until soft. - You can gradually introduce other grains like ragi (finger millet) or oats. 2. **Mashed Fruits:** - Offer mashed bananas, avocados, and cooked and mashed sweet potatoes. - Avocados are particularly calorie-dense and provide healthy fats. 3. **Khichdi:** - Prepare a simple khichdi with rice, moong dal (yellow lentils), vegetables, and a small amount of ghee. 4. **Full-Fat Yogurt:** - Introduce plain, full-fat yogurt as it's a good source of healthy fats and protein. 5. **Egg Yolk:** - Begin with well-cooked and mashed egg yolk. Gradually introduce the whole egg after a few months. 6. **Paneer (Cottage Cheese):** - Soft and well-mashed paneer can be included in your baby's diet for protein and healthy fats. 7. **Homemade Fruit Purees:** - Cook and puree fruits like mangoes, papayas, and chikoo (sapota). 8. **Homemade Vegetable Purees:** - Steam and puree vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and peas. 9. **Ragi Porridge:** - Ragi is rich in calcium and can be introduced in the form of porridge. 10. **Ghee:** - Add a small amount of ghee to your baby's meals for added calories and healthy fats. Remember to introduce one new food at a time and observe for any signs of allergies or intolerances. Gradually increase the variety of foods as your baby gets accustomed to solids. The goal is to provide a balanced and varied diet that supports your baby's growth and development.
