Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy4 years agoA. it is advisable to start complementary feeding for the child only after completion of six months of age and till that time kindly continue breastfeeding of the child
In COMPLEMENTARY FEEDING start with two rules
Rule number 1 is that you have to give the food in the form which the child can swallow
Rule number 2 is that always give a new food for for 5 to 6 days to see whether the child is able to digest that food or not as well as it will help in creating the taste in the child.
you can gradually start all types of food made from cereals pulses vegetable milk and fruits. You have to start initially with less amount and gradually you can increase the amount

Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy4 years agoA. Hello dear parent! Semi solids and water can be given to the baby only after completing 6 months. Till then the baby should be either exclusively breastfed or formula fed only. Both the breastmilk and formula milk will suffice the hydration and nutrition requirements of your baby. Continue breastfeeding. Good luck and take care.
