It's recommended to breastfeed babies till six months of age exclusively but if you have already started giving her solid food in significant amount, then I would suggest that you continue but give only homemade soft food like daal, mashed potato, mashed banana, khichdi and not any readymade food.

Please completely and exclusively breastfeed your child for completion of six months then you can start complimentary feet but please try to avoid biscuits because they have a lot of processed harmful ingredients
