Hi All,

My daughter is 5.5 months and weighs just 6.5 Kgs, which the doctor says is less than average. As advised by the doctor, i have started with mashed bananas but she doesnt like it.

Please suggest to me what i shud give to increase her weight and also guide me as to which solids to start and when. I am a first time mom and am very tensed regarding her health.

Thanks

some babies are slow in health dont worry.start with cereals which u get esily from market.start with rice than gradually change to fruits ,wheat,wegetables.u can give ur baby dal rice.make khicadi of it watery one then liquidise it.put little salt also.but very little.give fruits like boiled apples n pear.mash in bleander n give to ur baby no need to put anything in it.rice n dal is best.n i had heard of raji also but dont know to make it.

u better try to give everything refered little by little to ur little angel.she will surely gain weight.

my baby is 18 mths now .i had started with all the above things.

take care
best of luck
