Dear parents, Start semisolid diet after completing 6 months. According to me stop milk from 8amto8pm and give semisolid diet like Dal,dalia,khicdi alu kela rice,apple,upama,halwa,patolia,rab,kadi idle poha satu custard etc and from 80pmto8am give mother milk is preferable if not give top milk. To start with stop milk for 4hrs for 15days and give semisolid diet. Next stop milk for 8hrs and give semisolid diet lastly stop milk from 8amto8pm and give semisolid diet . For your knowledge 100ml milk gives 70calories of energy 100ml juices give 55calories of energy and 100gm of semisolid diet gives 350calories of energy. According to me give following supplements Vitanova d3 drops half ml once a day Zincovit drops one ml once a day Feris drops 1ml once a day syp ostocalcium 5ml twice a day .all up ito age of 1year.
