Simran replied. At 5 months you can give introduce variety of foods slowly,

1) Biscuits mixed with milk .

2) Rice water, dal ka pani,

3)mixed vegetable boiled together. add some cheese or butter as soon as they are boiled and mash these vegetables and pass through a seive or a muslin cloth.

4) My child had teeth by 5 months so I could intrduce more variety, But you can also give a grape wrapped in a clean muslin cloth and let the baby bite it with gums and enjoy the juice.

5) By now your baby must be six months , so you can also introduce plain cheese slices or boiled egg throughly mashed mixed with a big blob of butter
