| What to feed • Breast milk or formula, PLUS • Semi-liquid iron-fortified rice cereal, THEN • Other grain cereals like oats or barley | How much per day • Begin with about 1 teaspoon dry rice cereal mixed with 4 to 5 teaspoons breast milk or formula (it'll be very runny). • Gradually thicken consistency and increase to 1 tablespoon dry cereal mixed with breast milk or formula, twice a day. |
| Feeding tips • If your baby won't eat the cereal on the first try, offer it again in a few days. • Get more detailed tips on how to introduce solids. | |

dear friend, need not to worry. just try to give homely milk and semiliquid food to satify the babies hunger. Try to avoid the packed food from bazzar as much as u can. All the babies are not same. Try to make him/her to engage in physical activity as much as u can.
