Asking for Self, Female, 25 years old, Karachi
My baby is 6 mobths old masha ALLAH ...I want to know about eating schedule like when should I give her milk and when should I give her solid item like cerelac and purees I want to know timings
mashallh as your child is 6 month now . you can start with weaning. food choice is your . need to give semisolid food . like mashed fruits or vegetables , suji , rice etc
You may start with mashed potato with a little milk or butter added to soften it, Khhichrri, fully boiled egg yolk with a little milk or butter, custard with only a little sugar or a rice cereal. Offer these when the infant is hungry, before feeds. Offer one kind of a food for one week starting once a day and gradually building it to 3 times a day. In this way you will know how well your child tolerates it. When you have tried a few kinds of foods you can mix them by giving one kind in the morning and others in the afternoon and evening. Later on you can try wheat cereals. Egg white and shredded meats mixed with rice or Choori (kneeded roti) can be added after nine months of age. By one year of age the infant should be able to eat what is cooked for others in the household.
