If baby is breastfeeding along with complementary food,formula is not required. Night feeds required if baby demands.
Ratio of breastfeeding to complementary food is 70 :30 between 6-9 months, 50:50 between 9 -12 months & 30:70 during 2nd year.
Continue breastfeeding untill baby's 2nd birthday minimum

give baby soft, hyginically prepared homemade food in adequate quantity & not liquid items like only top milk or soups & fruit juices( give fruit pulp with spoon)
