POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. For a 6-month-old baby who is just starting to eat solid foods, you can introduce soft, easily digestible foods. In Indian cuisine, some suitable options include:
1. Rice cereal: Cooked rice blended with breast milk or formula to a smooth consistency.
2. Khichdi: A mild, well-cooked combination of rice and lentils (dal), mashed or pureed.
3. Vegetable purees: Soft-cooked vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, and squash, mashed or pureed.
4. Fruit purees: Mashed or pureed fruits like bananas, cooked apples, pears, or mashed papaya.
5. Moong dal soup: A light soup made from moong dal (green gram) cooked well and strained.
6. Ragi porridge: Cooked ragi (finger millet) mixed with breast milk, formula, or water to a thin consistency.
Remember to introduce one new food at a time and watch for any signs of allergies or digestive issues. Gradually increase the variety and texture of foods as your baby gets older and more accustomed to eating solids. Always consult with your pediatrician before introducing new foods to your baby's diet.
