good evening, till 5 to 6 months , mothers milk will be sufficient, then on u acn start weaning foods , basically home prepared multi cereal and grain mixture, lentil water, dala and rice khihcri, fruits like boiled apple, smashed banana, ect, avoid bottle feeding, avoid ready made packed foods. when u start with new food dont be over enthusiastic, start slowly in small amounts.
