After 6 month you should start semisolid food to your baby atleast 4-5 times a day in an interval of 3-4 hrs... And give water after feed... Also restrict formula feed for 2-3 times a day... Like before sleeping... Uf you are having sufficient breast milk then don't give formula milk.... Buffolo or cow milk is not recommended till 1 yr of age... First morning urine may be yellow but subsequent should be normal in color..
Next Steps
If persistent dark urine then contact Pediatrician

Hi.
Your baby is 9 months old now. He/She will need more whole food now for proper growth. Please cut down on formula milk/buffalo milk to 2-3 times per day and introduce khichdi, dalia, mashed potatoes, mashed banana in his/her diet. a total of 4-6 meals should be given per day.
If urine is dark yellow, a cup of water 3-4 times a day will be sufficient.
