Food Ideas for 4 - 6 Month+ Babies:-

First solids

Once your baby hits the magic six month mark, he/ she is developmentally ready to try solids – if you have noticed he/ she seems less satisfied by his/her milk feeds, it’s a good sign he needs more than milk to satisfy his hunger. Don’t offer solids before six months unless your doctor.

Ideal foods

Breast milk
Dal water
Rice water
Diluted Rice cereal
mashed banana diluted with baby’s milk
Puréed or mashed/strained fruits and vegetables (offer naturally-sweet vegetables before you start to introduce green-veg purées).

How often
Aim for twice a day with milk feeds in between (your baby should still receive most of his/her nourishment from breast or formula milk – a minimum of 500-600ml/16-20 ounces a day). Introduce new foods one at a time, three to four days apart, to ensure that you can pinpoint the cause of any potential allergic reactions (such as a rash or diarrhea).
