How many times juice can be given to the baby? My baby is 10 mnths old.
She is passing very hard stool as she is also having cold and cough. So doctor told me that anti-allergic medicines make stools hard.
I want to know the total quantity and total serving for 10 mnth old baby.
Thanks

Hai. My baby is 6 months old. Am giving her rice cereal from 5. Can I introduce fruits and vegetables.
If yes, what should I give her and how much.
Please tell me.
Kalyani
Start with veg or fruit purees. Slowly move to soft mashed foods by a month or so. Banana, apple, carrot, pumpkin are great first foods. Next chikku, papaya, beets, bottle gourd, rice porridge, ragi porridge, etc. one meal a day will do for 6 months. Avoid salt, sugar, and honey until one year.
