Q: I have started giving Cerelac (Rice,Wheat and Wheat Apple) to my 6 months old son. What solid foods should I try giving him? Please suggest.

A:At 6 months you have started giving her cerelac, which is fine. You may also start to give him home made cereals like suji, daliya, rice, khichri and moong dal. You need to cook them and give it in a mashed form as child may not be able to swallow bigger particles.
