Dear parents,        According to me stop milk from 8am to 8pm give semi solid diet like Dal, dalia, khichdi, rice, alu, kela, apple, upaama, halwa, patoliya, raab, kadi, idle, poha etc & from 8pm to 8am give milk if mother milk available its preferable if not toned milk adding sugar as per our taste. Cerelac is emergency food for house mothers can given, for working mothers its allowed. For your knowledge 100ml milk gives 70 calories energy. 100ml juices gives 55 calories of energy. 100gm food gives 350 calories of energy. As child has no molars, give only semi solid diet. To start with stop milk for 4hours in day for 15days and give semi solid diet. Next 15days stop milk for 8hours & give semi solid diet. Lastly stop milk from 8am to 8pm give semi solid diet.. If you first breast feed your kid & than give semi solid diet, he won't accept as his stomach is full. Mother's milk increases upto 5months the demand of baby increases after 5th month, if you give breast feeding in day whole night baby cries as there is no milk. So according to me stop milk in day time give semi solid diet, let this milk be for whole night
