Hi,
Your baby should be feed on only milk for first 6 months of life. Breastfeeding milk is the best choice. You can introduce the solid foods first fruits and vegetables and then grains.
Firstly, you introduce fruit juices then you can give her blended. You should continue to give her milk too. She must continue the formula milk for a year then you may give her cow milk.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
