my son is months old and is exclusively breastfed what food can I give him
hi as your baby reached five months great that you only gave exclusive breastfeed now once he approaches six months you can start giving weaning diet all homemade stuff along with breastfeeding until year of age it is always better to introduce baby with rice potato first as they are gluten free and gradually built up to multi cereal diet like grilled thick dal mashed banana mashed dal mashed roti bread biscuit mixed in sweetened undiluted milk cheeku mango and paya as snacks basically our aim is to give small energy dense feeds at frequent intervals you can add ghee or oil to make it more energy dense until 12 months keep frequency three to four times at least per day if breastfed always make the baby sit on your lap and then feed and maintain all the hygiene and clean your hands before preparing food and while feeding avoid all packed food
