Sir, My daughter is 9 months old and she weights 7.50 Kgs I am going planning to start giving cerelac in couple of days. My question is should cerelac be given with water or should i try it with milk in it instead of water? Your answer to my query would be appreciated
Hi...you can give with either water or milk. It all depends on the palatability of the kid - that means you can try both and continue with what the kid likes - for example if she likes it with milk - then continue with milk or otherwise - water. Other home-made food options will be - 1. Deal and rice well cooked and made into a oatmeal along with ghee2. Boiled apple or banana and mashed into a paste.3. Any made cereal oatmeal preparation with additional ghee added. Remember certain principles like -1. Add one food material / cereal or fruit per week. This will be useful because if he develops vomiting or diarrhea, we will know what to avoid.2. Add vegetables and fruits made into a paste surely to avoid constipation.3. Do not add too much sugar as it may cause diarrhea. Regards -
