A. as you already stared solids than you can give semi solids food once in a day.. Breastfeeding or formula feeding should continue alongside the solid foods, as they still form an essential part of the infant diet till 1 year.

A. hi Once baby reach at 6 months age, you can start feeding liquid or semisolid food to your child. but till that , please continue with breastfeeding it is better to avoid giving water in between the meal as it fill your child stomach and so decrease his food intake . water can be given after meal or during play time .
