hi! all
wanted to ask what should one start with in terms of liquids (juices/water/milk etc..or food for a 4month old baby..he' still on bf.. how much shld be the quantity at the beginning and in b' w feeds or skip feed and introduce gauri replied. neelima is right ...even i waited for 6 motnhs...so many people advised me to start with solids...they kept telling me she will suffer in health since ur working...
but it ddnt make any diff...to her health...infact now she is 10 motnhs still she depends more on milk...
but ultimately its ur decision... even if u start then start with ragi...
take nachini powder 1/4 tsp...add to say 2 oz milk....mix it well cook it...feed him with vati spoon..
gv this 2ce a day...but gv him same amount of water...after this feed...see for few days ..then u can always increase quantity...n the thickness should be little thicker than milk...at least in the beginning...
juices i wont recommend so soon...u can do that from 8 months ...first let her get adjust with one thing neelima replied. hi ankitha,
a baby under 6 months of age should not be given any other liquids than MILK.Dont be so hurry to introduce him to other food stuff.
not only now.in future also please do not give her juices as this is the main culrpit fo r babies getting obese.
