Suggest Suitable Food Diet For 6months Old
Hi.. my daughter is 6 months old I didn t introduce any solid food, only breastfeeding. I want to introduce her cerelac first.but I don t know which is best for her. Rice or wheat? And how many times in a day? If I give her one day cerelac, one day banana,potato, other day fruits and repeat this whole week, along with breast milk, so this will be OK for her?

Rice one first and just once. Gradually increase thickness and amount in 10-14 days time.
Start next item from family food only.
initially only 2-3 spoons on day one.
Go upto half bawl by 10 -14 days.
See baby enjoys taste and it's getting digested..
Keep adding family foods
At one year you and your daughter should be eating almost same diet.
