Solids overfeeding for 6 month baby
Girl child.
Date of birth: 14/04/2018
Birth weight: 2.7kg
Weight at 6 months 6.6kg
Started solids for baby. Giving her cooked ragi puree at 1230 and steamed apple puree at 430. But looks like she is drinking less mother's milk.
What should be the solid feed quantity? Is it ok if milk consumption has reduced to half as before?
Thank you.

At this age,give her 2 solid meals a day including curds and bananas in the diet in addition to whatever you prepare at home and 4 milk feeds including one top formula feed using a spoon and katori and rest breastfeeds.
Ensure strict hygiene and fixed feed timings.
