Hi i started with soilds for my baby few days ago.. Initially i started with liquids.. Like left over water from rice and moong dal ka paani... Two tea spoons.. Each for a week.. Later on next week i started with semi solids like nestrum rice.. ( its readymade u just hv to add boiled water to the required amount.. My baby just loves it).. u can also give rava kheer.. Whicb should again be semi solids.... Next week on wards introduce fruit juices also... Along with the above mentioned. Remember. Always tk a three day test to judge the food u r giving to ur baby. Also dont stop breastfeeding. It should be continued.

I gave my daughter carrot puree with small tomato, carrot kheer (blend it after making to make a thin puree), power packed pumpkin soup, Suji kheer, dalia (roast, grind and store in an air tight container), dal ka pani, chawal ka pani, start cerelac rice flavour as it is easiest to digest, banana smoothie in milk or curd as u want, chikoo smoothie in milk. Remember to give small quantity. Start giving sweet things first then introduce food that has salty taste. U can also add crushed badam in kheer after a while. My daughter too hate apple sauce... :-) good luck with ur Lo.
