FOR ALL MOMMIES STARTING SOLIDS FOR THEIR LOS There are 4 criteria that HAVE to be met most importantly before starting solids.;<br> 1. Baby must have completed 180 days/6 Months;<br> 2. Baby must be able to sit unsupported for a few seconds;<br> 3. Baby must have lost tongue thrust.;<br> 4. Shows interest in food;<br> Once baby meets ALL the criteria, only then you may start solids.;<br> Please remember that for the baby&#8217;s first year, bm/fm is the main source of nutrition. Solids are not to be used to make the child &#8220;fatter/gain weight/fuller/sleep better&#8221;; This is because their digestive tracks are still not mature enough to process food completely so they may not be able to extract nutrition fully from solids. However, having said that, it doesn&#8217;t mean you should not feed them healthy options. This is the practice period which will set the pattern for their eating habits in the long run... so avoid force feeding, distraction feeding, giving junk food or masking tastes of things; No animal milk, salt, no sugar/jaggery/honey till the baby completes 1 year. Even post that if you can avoid, please do.; Before every solids meal, give bm/ff (about 20-30 mins before); Continue to breastfeed as normal and don&#8217;t replace a feed session with solids.; When you introduce solids introduce everything individually first, be it fruit or vegetable or cereal.; 6th month - 1 meals;<br> 7th Month-2 meals;<br> 8th Month- 3 meals;<br> 9th month- 3 meals and a snack if needed;<br> 10th Months- same; as above and give snacks as per demand.;<br> If you are doing traditional weaning, then steam instead of boiling before pureeing; Start with breakfast and observe any reactions.; Offer variety. Don&#8217;t give the baby the same thing for several days Don&#8217;t be alarmed if baby doesn&#8217;t eat more than a few grains or a bite in the initial days, it&#8217;s normal.; Follow the baby&#8217;s cues when it comes to quantity. If baby persistently refuses then don&#8217;t force.; Will add to this if I remember any more points Some suggestions for starting weaning :-<br> PUR&#201;ES Beets<br> Cauliflower;<br> Carrot<br> Sweet potato;<br> Pumpkin<br> Lauki;<br> Zucchini;<br> Peas;<br> Rajma;<br> Chick peas;<br> Apples<br> Pears;<br> Papaya<br> Strawberry;<br> Plum;<br> Any other fruit or vegetable; MASHED<br> Dal<br> Rice<br> Brinjal<br> Upma; You can also give upma or Ragi porridge<br> Post introducing everything on its own you can start doing combinations;<br> Like peas and cauliflower;<br> Apples and banana etc<br> Introduce without spice first so baby can taste everything in its natural form.;

Hi, u can start with one meal a day. Then progress to 2 meals per day. Then 2 meals and 1 snack. Then 3 meals and 1 snack. Then on, 3 meals and 2 snacks in between if needed. Plus breastfeeding on Demand too should continue till 1 year of age. Till one year, the main source of nutrition for the baby is mother's milk only. In the beginning he won't eat much, just 1-2 spoons. Have patience, and don't force feed. Include the baby in family meal times. Watching others eat, he too will develop interest in food. Happy weaning &#128522;

mein fruit purees jaise mashed banana, mashed mango wagerah dijiye. Sweet cheezein vo khayega kyuki breast milk bhi naturally sweet hota hai. Par Dhyan rakhe, uske khane mein ek saal tak namak ya cheeni mat Dale. Usko sab cheezo ke natural taste pata chalne de. Fruit puree ke Baad aap steamed vegetables de sakte hai, soups de sakte hai. Fir dheere dheere mashed daal par aaiye. Usko thoda patla karke daal dijiye, fir mashed rice, aur khichdi, thoda ghee dal kar de. Uske alawa, doodh mein roti bhiga kar ekdum soft karke vo de. Dheere dheere jab usko aadat ho jaye to aap mash karna slowly stop kar sakte hai. Par aap mashed food hi dijiye, ekdum pureed nai thoda bahut texture samajhne layak consistency Rehna chahiye Varna bachha sirf swallow karega, chabayega nai. Snacks mein finger foods dijiye, jaise potato wedges, ya steamed gajar, fried paneer. Sabkuch bite sized hona chahiye aur finger foods Apne saamne khilaiye taki uske gale mein na atke. Vo dheere dheere khud khana chahe to use khane de.. cheezo ka texture samajh mein aane se vo khana chahega. Aur finger foods dene se usse chabane ki aadat hogi. Slowly aur variety add kijiye jaise oats, daliya, stuffed parathe , cheela, idli dosa wagerah. Aapko samajh mein aa jayega ki bachhe Ko kya khana pasand hai aur kya nai. Uske bad usi hisab se use khana de. Par Dhyan rakhe shuruaat mein ek ek karke hi new cheezein de, ek sath 2-3 new cheezein introduce na kare, taki agar usse kisi cheez ki allergy ho to aap samajh paye ki kya khane se dikkat hui hai. Ek saal ke pehle nuts wagerah ya animal milk mat dijiyega, aur khane ke saath on demand feed bhi karate rahiye.</a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a></a>
