Hello friends. My baby is 6 months + 1 week old. I have introduced her to solids with banana, Dal and apple. I need guidance in as to wat quantity of solids, what varieties and the quantity of formula should be given at this age?

Hi, As far as formula milk is concerned, it must be mentioned outside the container of the formula milk, and apart from that you can feed all home-made food nicely mashed so that there is no possibility of choking. Like if you are feeding dal to your baby, then make her have half a bowl and if it is cottage cheese then may be one slice. Your baby will herself tell you when she will be full as then she will start throwing food and will not swallow it. See, we should always feed adequately, and remember never to overfeed the baby. You can feed the baby solids two three times a day. I am sharing a link that mentions the quantity that you should be giving to a 6 month old. And also about signals that babes give that they are full. http://wholesomebabyfood.momtastic.com/howmuchbabyeat.htm https://www.healthlinkbc.ca/healthy-eating/sample-meals-baby-6-12-month
