Child nutrition advice
My baby boy will turn 6months on September 3 can we start solid food. If yes, plz suggest the diet we can start with for him. Now he is on enfamil stage 1, can we start enfamil stage 2 from September.
He is born on April 3rd.
Thank you
Enfamil stage 2 from 6 months onwards is fine.
You main focus should be on introducing different foods to the baby. It will be difficult to begin with.
Reduce the frequency of breast feeds. Start giving dal-water, rice water, vegetable soup, fresh fruit juices.
Gradually move on to semi solid foods like mashed banana, mashed apples, khichdi, sooji kheer or halwa.
Keep experimenting with different foods. Children take some time to adjust to these new tastes. Make sure that you keep varying the foods and include all kinds of nutrients in the diet.
