Hello, start with rice or ragi ganji. 1-2 spoonfuls then gradually increase to 1/2 - 1 cup and 4-5 feeds day by day along with breastmilk. Add mashed potatoes, fruits, vegetables, rice gradually.

Beginning at 6 months, an infant can eat pureed, mashed or semi-solid foods. By 8 months most infants can also eat finger foods. By 12 months, most children can eat the same types of foods as consumed by the rest of the family.
