Start by giving 2-3 spoonfuls of soft food twice a day.
Start with one food (dal water or rice kanji), then add a second food after 4-5 days to get the infant acquainted with the flavor.
Because their stomachs are so little at this age, infants can only eat small amounts at each meal. The flavor of a new food may surprise your baby.
Give them time to get used to the new meals and flavors. Be patient with your child and don’t force them to eat.
Continue to breastfeed or formula feed until the infant is eating a sufficient amount of solid food.
