Asking for Self, Female, 24 years old, Lahore Pakistan

My son is just 4 months old and my mother-in-law forcefully feeds him everything (sooji with milk, banana with milk, custard, milkshake, etc.) Is it safe for my child? If not then please tell me some valid reasons to stop her from doing so. Ps, she does not allow cerelac in her house as she thinks its harmful and full of chemicals

Recommendation worldwide is to give only milk esp breastfeed to babies till 6 months of age as the gut of the babies is under maturation during the first 6 months. Therefor for better health of baby it is recommended to give milk breastfeed/formula milk and nothing else.

No need to give food at this age just give milk. Semi solid food should be started after 5 to 6 months of age
