solid foods that are safe to give to baby   

Science says, after 6 months, the digestive system of a child develops completely and the child can digest almost everything. But because there are no teeth developed, children should be given food in puree or mashed form. Moreover, from 5-6 months, children experience eurocentric reflex where a child puts anything around him/her in his/her mouth. This is a signal which tells children that it is time to go for foods other than mother’s milk. Semi-solid or puree foods can include Khichadi, Shiro, fruit pulp, mashed potatoes, idli, etc. For non-vegetarian items, you can give shredded chicken and eggs. Be careful about the consistency so that child can easily swallow the food.
