A. When introducing solid foods to a 6-month-old baby in India, consider starting with single-ingredient, easily digestible, and nutrient-rich foods. Here are some options: 1. **Rice Cereal:** Cooked rice blended with water or breast milk to create a smooth consistency. 2. **Lentil Puree:** Mashed or pureed lentils (dal) provide a good source of protein. 3. **Vegetable Purees:** Start with easily digestible vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, or peas. Steam and puree them for a smooth texture. 4. **Fruit Purees:** Pureed fruits like apple, banana, or pear are nutritious and tasty. 5. **Khichdi:** A simple, well-cooked khichdi with rice and lentils can be introduced. Gradually include mild spices like cumin for flavor. 6. **Ragi (Finger Millet) Porridge:** Rich in calcium and iron, ragi porridge is a good option. 7. **Homemade Cerelac:** Prepare a homemade version with a mix of rice, wheat, and lentils ground into a fine powder. 8. **Avocado Mash:** Avocado is a nutritious choice and has a creamy texture suitable for babies. 9. **Paneer (Cottage Cheese) Puree:** For protein and calcium, introduce paneer puree after checking for any allergies. 10. **Yogurt:** Once your baby is comfortable with solids, you can introduce plain, full-fat yogurt as it is a good source of probiotics and calcium. Remember to introduce new foods one at a time and observe for any signs of allergies. Consult with your pediatrician before introducing solids and for guidance on the best foods for your baby's individual needs.
