Indian Baby Food Chart for 7 Months Baby | 7 Months Indian Baby Food Recipes

7 Months Baby Food Charts by weekly | Indian Baby Food

Indian 7 Month Baby Food Chart, Indian Baby Food recipes, By seven months, babies may learn to chew soft, lumpy food even if they have no teeth. So be sure to include well-mashed food gradually rather than a puree and make a thicker consistency. Don't force the baby, though, as each baby is unique and adopts eating habits at their own pace. Just keep trying your best to encourage his eating habits. Always consider preferring homemade foods for your baby which is safe.

Also, remember that solids food can't replace the nutrients breastmilk or formula provides during the first year. So consider including solids in your baby's diet as complementary feeding. Please read six month baby food chart (to cross-check the foods you have introduced at six months) before you plan a food chart for your seven months baby.

Sample Indian Food chart or Diet plan for seven-month-old baby (high-level food chart):

For seven months, baby, you can offer one meal and a snack for a day. Rest should be breastfeeding or formula feeding. Choose the timings for meals and snacks according to your baby's preference, but avoid giving any solids after 7 PM.

How much quantity per day?

For the quantity of food, always be guided with your baby's hunger as appetite varies from baby to baby, and most babies change daily. Here is an approximate amount:

¼ cup of fruit or vegetables
¼ cup of cereal. Gradually increased to ½ cup

Introduce one food at a time and follow three days rule, which will help determine allergic reactions to a particular food.

Notes :

Sterilize the bowls and spoons used for feeding your baby in a vessel with hot water for five minutes and keep it immersed in the same vessel until use.
Never introduce more than one food at a time when introducing solids to your baby.
Salt and sugar are not recommended in a baby's food until one year of age.
Check for allergy symptoms when introducing new food to your baby, and stop feeding your child if you find any signs.
Feed your baby with breastmilk or formula milk on demand other than the timings mentioned in the chart.
Always check with your pediatrician before introducing any new food.
Steaming is a healthy option for baby food than pressure cooking. So I prefer steaming using an Idli pot or steamer.
