I hv a 7 and half month old baby. He is very much reluctant to drink milk. I m giving him solid food 3 times(dal chawal 2 times ,cerelac,little fruite juice) . He is eating his solid foods but refusing to hv any milk. I am unable to feed him milk by any measure.What to do in this situation? He is not gainning weight properly. But he is active and always trying to learn new skills.

40 ml per day. If the baby is constipated then give more.

Anon till one year breast milk or formula should be the main source of nutrition. The food you are offering is bit too much for 7 and half months, offer one meal and one snack or offer 2 meals. If you are going to give only dal chawal then I'm afraid baby will not be exposed to vegetables and other stuffs, also very soon he will be bored of dal chawal. Offer variety of food with vegetables, cerelac has very less nutrients and just added with sugar, so drop the cerelac immediately. Stick to home cooked food, do not offer milk shakes, juices, thin porridges because it will fill his tummy and he won't drink your milk. Water intake should also be less than 40 ml.. Always remember till 1 Yr bm or formula is the main food.
