food chart for 8 month old baby?

Hi Kinnari, To begin day start with breast milk. Keep gap of 2 or 2 & 1/2  hr between each solids preferably semi solids. whenever your baby wakes up her routine starts right from thath time. after 1 hr of breastfeed Give breakfast of well cooked oats/ powdered daliya/ suji apple kheer/ suji khir/ cerelac.   After breakfast give breastmilk once before lunch . In lunch you can give well cooked moong daal khichdi/ upper layer of chappati  mashed in  milk or daal/ mashed rice with milk or daal. After lunch give dome gap then you can give few spoons of juices like watermelon, grapes, pomegranate, chickoo, coconut water.   Arouund 4 -4. 30 in evening again you can give purees like apple puree/ carrot puree/ potato puree/ tomato puree /beetroot puree/ pear/ papaya/ banana and purees of so many fruits or vegetables .Again between dinner and evening snacks you can breastfeed.   In dinner you can again give cerelac, daliya, sabudaana, upper layer of chappati mashed in milk.   Whatever you give should be well cooked and in semi solid form .  Breastmilk should be given  at least for 7-9 times a day. As the baby baby grows reduce number of breastfeed and increase the solids. Hope this will help you .

hey puloma as u mentioned that rice has to be mashed in milk? is it formula milk or how? I wanna know as my son don eats rice...

thank u so much puloma...

Hi Sushma, as the baby is less then 1 year so cow milk is not suggested so if your baby is having formula milk then either you can cook rice with it or mash well cooked / soft cooked rice in it.

ok puloma n thanks..
